The session covers the full modeling and analysis workflow for a steel box girder bridge built using the Incremental Launching Method (ILM). You'll learn how to simulate each construction stage, group loads and boundary conditions efficiently, and evaluate structural behavior — including buckling of stiffened plates — throughout the launching process. Particularly valuable for engineers dealing with long-span bridges or staged construction, this session offers a practical look at how ILM-specific workflows and wizards can simplify what is typically one of the most complex construction sequences to analyze.
