The stress and displacement distribution of box girder on the elastic foundation under the arbitrary load was analyzed numerically by the finite strip method.
Especially Winkler's model is used for the elastic foundation and applied to the strip element.
Because nodal displacements were adopted as basic parameters, convergency was fastly achieved in displacements but in stress analysis more than 10 terms of corresponding Fourier Series were required.
The results solved by computer program developed by above theories in this paper nearly coincided with reference 6 and 7 and are shown in Fig. 9∼Fig 15.
