2. BRIDGES
A bridge is a structure providing passage over an obstacle without closing the way
beneath.The required passage may be for a road, a railway, pedestrians, a canal, or a
pipeline.The obstacle to be crossed may be a river, a road, railway or valley.
COMPONENTS OF BRIDGES
(a) Decking, consisting of deck slab, girders, trusses, etc.
(b) Bearings for the decking
(c) Abutments and piers
(d) Foundations for the abutments and the piers
(e) River training works, like revetment for slopes for embankment at abutments, and
aprons at river bed level
(f) Approaches to the bridge to connect the bridge proper to the roads on either side
(g) Handrails, parapets and guard stones

4. MISCELLANEOUS REQUIREMENTS
Lighting - Be in accordance with provisions of authority
having jurisdiction on that area
Drainage
•Transverse drainage – provide crown in deck
•Longitudinal drainage – provide camber or gradient –
gutter slope -minimum of 0.5%
•Overhanging portions be provided with drip bed or
notch
5. MISCELLANEOUS REQUIREMENTS
Road- Kerb - Surmountable & Insurmountable
Parapet – Designed to prevent a fast moving vehicle of a
given mass from shooting off the roadway- Minimum
700 mm height – New Jersey Barrier – road side face
double sloped
Hand Rail – parapets be mounted by metal hand rail –
minimum 350 mm height
(Above features be given deliberate vertical cuts or discontinuity to prevent monolithic action
with deck slab )
6. MISCELLANEOUS REQUIREMENTS
Crash Barriers – Protect walkways from erring vehicular
traffic by acting as an insurmountable kerb and deflect
the hitting vehicles back into the traffic lane – corrugated
or pressed metal sheet spanning horizontally between
posts.
Super-elevation – Be in accordance with the applicable
standard for the highway ( less than 0.08 m/m -
preferably less than 0.06 m/m )
7.
8. MISCELLANEOUS REQUIREMENTS
Expansion joints – Joints should be sealed to prevent
erosion and filling of debris.
Types of expansion joints:
• Field moulded joints – Excessive maintenance problems
• Compression seals – Good service life
• Compression-tension seals – Require careful consideration of thermal thrust
• Steel plates and finger joints – Costly & difficult to maintain

internal failure or excessive deformation.The equilibrium and the structural
strength shall be checked under basic, accidental and seismic combinations of
loads.
SERVICEABILITY LIMIT STATE:
The serviceability limit state check shall be carried out in order to have control
on stress, deflection, crack width, settlement and to estimate shrinkage and
creep effects.
13. RCC T-BEAM BRIDGES
• T-Beam construction consists of a transversely reinforced slab
deck which spans across to the longitudinal support girders.
• T-Beam bridges are economical for spans 12m to 18m.
• Optimum lateral spacing of longitudinal girders is typically
between 1.8 m to 3m.

15. ANALYSIS OF DECK SLAB
Concrete bridge decks are designed as transverse strips as a flexure
member. Carriage way width is modelled as line in Staad Pro.The
concrete deck is assumed to be transverse slab strips of 1 m width,
which is supported by the girders.
DL, SIDL & LL ( Class A, Class 70 R-W, Class 70 R-T) cases are
considered for the analysis.

20. GRILLAGE ANALYSIS OF GIRDER
• Deck is idealized as a series of ‘beam’ elements (or grillages),
connected and restrained at their joints.
• Each element is given an equivalent bending and torsional inertia
to represent the portion of the deck which it replaces.
• Bending and torsional stiffness in every region of slab are
assumed to be concentrated in nearest equivalent grillage beam.
• Restraints, load and supports may be applied at the joints
between the members, and members framing into a joint may be
at any angle.

23. STRUCTURAL DESIGN
• Step-1: Assume the width & depth of section; diameter of
reinforcement bars and grades of materials
• Step-2: Determine the design strength of the materials from
IRC-112-2011
• Step-3: Determine the moment of resistance of the assumed
section and check if it is less than the Maximum moment due to
ULS combination of applied loads
• Step-4: Check the adequacy of reinforcement required for the
Under-Reinforced section
24. STRESS & STRAIN DISTRIBUTION FOR BENDING MOMENT
CALCULATION - IRC-112-2011
25. • Step-5: Check for shear reinforcement be made according to
IRC-112-2011 provisions (Sections loaded with LL, calculated
based on effective width formula, do not require shear check )
• Step-6: Check for serviceability limit state- Stress calculations be
made for Rare and Quasi-Permanent combinations for short and
long term effects – Checked if stresses are within limits specified
in IRC-112-2011
• Step-7: Check for crack width (less than 0.3 mm) & deflections
(Max. LL Deflection < span/800) are done
