Bridge Slab Calculations

General Span 25.00 ft c/c Design Truck

Width 18.00 ft
Wearing Course Thickness 2.00 inch

Min Slab Thickness 1.2(S+10)/30 1.40 ft.

Say 17.00 inch

Dead Load slab = H*0.150/12 0.21 Ksf

Wearing Course= 0.02 Ksf
Total 0.24 Ksf

Live Load Moments

M Truck= 69.76 K-ft
M Lane= 50.00 K-ft
M Tandem= 252.00 K-ft
since M tanddem > M truck

Live Load Moment at mid strip 377.60 K-ft Lane Moment

Calculating Design E

E= 10+5*(L*W)^1/2 inch L=Minimum of Span or 60 ft

W= Minimum of Width or 30 ft
