The construction failure of the bridges at Milford Haven, Koblenz and Yarra stimulated a great volume of work in both research and design areas of box girders, some of it prior to the Merrison Committee but much of it sponsored on the committee's behalf during and after the publication of its report. The results of recent investigations were presented but the present report summarises only the sessions devoted to plate and box girders.
