The shrinkage behaviour of two composite trusses with a span of 11.5 m was studied. Shrinkage measurements to determine the effects of slab shrinkage on truss deflections and member strains were recorded over periods of 65 and 85 days. A method is developed to compute shrinkage deflections, based on equilibrium of the shrinkage-induced forces at midspan, which gives excellent agreement with the test results. This method assumes a linear strain distribution through the depth and is based on the free shrinkage strain of the concrete and the average stress–strain characteristics of the concrete in tension under restrained shrinkage conditions as it drys, creeps, and eventually may crack as it is gradually loaded from the green state. The method is extended to composite steel-beam concrete-slab members. It is equivalent to Branson's "composite section method" provided that the correct values for the shrinkage strain and the effective modulus of elasticity of the concrete in tension are used in the latter. Key words: behaviour, composite steel–concrete beams, trusses, shrinkage deflections.

In order to learn more about the composite steel-concrete bridge which the Djoué bridge of Congo (Brazzaville) National Road One Phase- II Project has selected, promote the design technologies of bridges and better understand and improve the relevant standards, The overall optimization design analysis of Djoué Bridge aiming at saving steel and improving bearing capacity is necessary. The Doctor Bridge was used in optimization of bridge type, concrete thickness and height of steel beam and they have been selected. It can provide technical references for the construction of the Djoué Bridge, the follow-up study of the composite steel-concrete bridge and the specification improvement.
