LAYOUT OF TRUSS GIRDER ROAD WAY

BRIDGES
 Classification Bridges
I-According to Function of Bridge: First Semester
Rail Way Bridges
 Rail Way Bridges Plate Girder Bridges
 Road Way Bridges
 Crane Bridges
 Foot Bridges
 Bridges Carring Pipe Line

II-According to Type of Main Girder:

 Plate Girder Bridges Second Semester
 Truss Girder Bridges Road Way Bridges
 Box Girder Bridges Truss Girder Bridges
 Composite Girder Bridges
 Any Bridge Consists Of:
1-Floor [R.C Slab (Road Way & Side Walk)]
Side Walk Road Way

2-Floor Beams [Stringer & Cross Girder]

3-Main Girder – Road Way Bridge – Truss Girder
4-Bearing [Supports]
 Steps of Design of Road Way Bridge:
Layout of Road Way Bridge
Design of Stringer

Design of Main Girder [Truss]
 Loads & Forces in Truss Members
 Design of Upper Chord Members
 Design of Lower Chord Members
 Design of Diagonal & Vertical Members
 Design of Vertical Members [Pony Bridge]
 Design of Connections
Design of Bearing [Supports]

Example No [1]:
o Road Way Bridge
o W-Truss Girder
o Pony Bridge
o Side Walk = 2.0 m & Road Way = 11.0 m
o Span = 50.0 m Divide [10] Equal Panels
[Solution]
 Width of M.G = 40 cm [Pony Bridge]
 Width of Bridge B = [0.40+(2x2.0)+11.0] = 15.40 m
 Depth of M.G = [L/10] = [50.0/10] = 5.0 m
 Depth of X.G = [B/7-9] = [15.40/7-9] = 2.0 m
 Spacing Between X.G a = [50.0/10] = 5.0 m
 Depth of Str = [a/10] = [5.0/10] = 0.50 m
 Spacing Between Str [1.75 m – 2.25 m] = 11.0/5 = 2.20 m

o Through Bridge
o Spacing Between M.G [Width of Bridge] B = 11.30 m
o Side Walk = 2.0 m & Road Way = 10.0 m

[Solution]
 Width of M.G = 30 cm [Through Bridge]
 Depth of M.G = [L/8] = [72.0/8] = 9.0 m [Through Bridge]
 Depth of X.G = [B/7-9] = [11.30/7-9] = 1.60 m
 Spacing Between X.G a = [72.0/8] = 9.0 m
 Depth of Str = [a/10] = [9.0/10] = 0.90 m
