Some bridges have to withstand high levels of torsion forces. As a consequence, box type beams are often the obvious solution. It could be possible that the balance of transversal to longitudinal torsion reinforcement is not fully reached. If the transversal reinforcement is somehow underestimated, the box beam needs to be transversally strengthened. From the various solutions, external transversal reinforcement is certainly one possibility. The investigation presented here aimed to study such solution. The authors tested four hollow beams under pure torsion. The level of the non balanced ratio between internal longitudinal and transversal torsion reinforcement was one of the parameters that were considered in this investigation. Other parameter was the existence or the no existence of external transversal strengthening reinforcement. The experimental results of the tests have shown the effectiveness of the use of the external transversal strengthening steel reinforcement to compensate the lack o...
