Abstract

This chapter gives updates on the current work for segmental box girder (SBG) under static load test and the measurement to determine the elastic behavior, displacement, stress and strain of the SBG. Moreover, study on finite element analysis (FEA) and transversal slope on SBG is also highlighted in this chapter. At the end of this chapter, a summary of all experimental and analytical research of SBG previously conducted, is given.
