COMPRESSED STEEL SHEET [1 record]

Record 1 1994-11-29

English

Subject field(s)
  • Types of Concrete
CONT

We have also seen how inadequate the compressed steel sheet of a steel box girder is: it will thus be replaced by concrete which, despite its greater weight, easily takes longitudinal compression and transversal bending loads.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sortes de béton
CONT

On a vu à quel point la tôle de compression d'un caisson acier est inadaptée : on remplacera donc celle-ci par du béton qui, malgré son poids supérieur, assure sans problème la fonction de compression longitudinale et de flexion transversale.
