It is an effective way to solve the problem of the traffic congestion. With the
increasing use of thin-walled structure use, mechanic behavior of the Y-shape bridge
structure becomes complex especially in restrained torsiondistortion angle
distortion warp and shear lag effect. Scholars at home and abroad HUANG JY,
E.C.Hambly and others have studied the design and the method of the structure
analysis of the Y-shape Bridge based on the theory of the thin-walled box girder.
Generally, there have three methods which can be used in the Y-shape Bridge
analysis. The first, the Y-shape Bridge structure was divided into two independent
structures in the past, and each of the independent structure is analyzed respectively.
This method does not taking account of the mutual influence of the main bridge and
ramp. The second, the Y-shape bridge was carried out based on general theory and
method of the space grillage analysis, and this way can not taking account of the
restrained torsionthe distortion anglethe distortion warp and the shear lag effect.
The third, analysis of Y-shape bridge structure adopts shell theory. This method can
not obtain directly internal force, and workload of post-process is heavy. In a word,

those analytical methods above can not exactly hold structural behavior of the
Y-shape Bridge. Based on the general girder theory, by increasing freedom degree,
taking account of the strained torsionthe distortion anglethe distortion warp and
the shear lag effect at the same time, authors establish the element stiffness matrix
of the Y-shape thin-walled box beam.

5 Conclusions
Here we may draw the following conclusions.
(1) Based on the general beam theory, by increasing freedom degree, taking
account of the strained torsionthe distortion anglethe distortion warp and
the shear lag effect at the same time, it can exactly hold the mechanic
behaviors of the thin-walled box beam structure of the Y-shape bridge.
(2) Mechanic Behaviors of the space grillage accord with the practical structural
mechanic property, and the internal forces of the thin-walled box beam
structure of the Y-shape Bridge can be obtained directly.
