Abstract: Laminated sectional girders having webs and flanges may be formed to incre the shear stresses thereof by including as a structural part of the girder at least one connecting layer extending through both the flanges and webs of the girder and made of prefabricated sections with additional girder layers being arranged adjacent the sections of the connecting layer. The additional adjacent layers may comprise both fiber-reinforced material layers forming the laminated flanges of the girder as well as the webs thereof. The additional layers may be arranged either between prefabricated sections of the connecting layer or they may be arranged outside of the prefabricated sections.
