Gordo, J.M. and Guedes Soares, C. (1996), “Approximate Method to Evaluate the Hull Girder Collapse Strength", Marine Structures, Vol. 9, Issues 3-4, pp. 449-470

A method to estimate the ultimate moment based on a simplified approach to represent the collapse strength of beam columns is presented. Comparisons with experimental results of box girders, small scale models of box girders and a 1/3 frigate model are performed. Also a comparison with results of other approximate methods and finite elements codes is made.
