A box girder of a ship is a structural component that provides rigidity and strength to the vessel's hull. It is typically a hollow, rectangular beam made from steel or other materials, designed to support loads and distribute stresses evenly. Box girders are often used in the construction of large ships and floating structures, enhancing their stability and resistance to bending and twisting forces. Their design helps improve the overall structural integrity and longevity of the ship.

The disadvantages of a girder bridge is that it's expensive to build. It is also very hard to maintain. It needs to have access to the confined space of the girderbox.
