CERTIFICATE
This is to certify that practical training report submitted by Karan D Patel (20MCLC11),
towards the partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Technology in
Civil Engineering (Computer Aided Structural Analysis and Design) of Nirma University,
Ahmadabad. In my opinion, the submitted work has reached a level required for being accepted
for examination. The results embodied in this practical training report, to the best of my
knowledge, haven’t been submitted to any other university or institution for award of any
degree or diploma.
I would like to express my special thanks of gratitude to our sir Mr. Vishrut Gandhi as well as
our HOD Mr. URMIL DAVE sir who gave us the golden opportunity to do this wonderful
internship from which we came to know about so many new things we are really thankful to
them. I am also thankful to CASAD consultant team member who help me to resolve the
mistake that I have done while modelling and also cleared basic fundamental while doing
model and manual calculation.

1.2.1 Courbon’s Method
The method makes simplifying assumptions, restricting its applicability to a certain extent but
the method has been very popular because of its simplicity. In Courbon’s theory, the cross-
beams or diaphragms are assumed to be infinitely stiff. The method is applicable to inter-
connected T-beam bridges and is still in vogue in India and is recommended by Indian Road
Congress for live load distribution strictly within its limitations. According to Courbon’s
method, the load Ri on any girder i of a bridge consisting of multiple parallel girders is
computed assuming a linear variation of deflection in the transverse direction.
The flexural and torsional rigidities have significant influence on the load distribution. Their
effect is considered through two dimensionless characterizing parameter namely flexural
parameter and torsional parameter as given below,
1.2.3 Finite Difference Method
When more complex boundary conditions are encountered in practice the method of
Orthotropic plate becomes cumbersome and difficult to apply, then this method is used. The
finite difference method is used for such complex boundary conditions. In this method of
analysis, the deck is notionally divided into grids of arbitrary mesh size and the size and the
deflection values at the grid points are treated as unknown quantities. The usual governing
differential equation of an Orthotropic plate is considered in the Finite Difference Method.
Finite difference equation for various boundary conditions like simple, fixed, free or a
combination of free and simple supports can be written down for each case.
Under the action of each sine-wave load component, every longitudinal strip of the structure
deflects and twist in a pure sine-wave form. Since differential of sine function is a cosine
function and vice versa, the equilibrium equations, which can be thought of as differentials of
deflections, can also be expressed as a number of sine or cosine functions. These resulting
equilibrium equations can be solved as conventional simultaneous equations.

IRC CLASS 70R LOADING: This loading is to be normally adopted on all roads on which
permanent bridges and culverts are constructed. Bridges designed for Class 70R Loading
should be checked for Class A Loading also as under certain conditions, heavier stresses may
occur under Class A Loading.
IRC CLASS AA LOADING: This loading is to be adopted within certain municipal limits,
in certain existing or contemplated industrial areas, in other specified areas, and along certain
specified highways. Bridges designed for Class AA Loading should be checked for Class A
Loading also, as under certain conditions, heavier stresses may occur under Class A Loading.
IRC CLASS A LOADING: This loading is to be normally adopted on all roads on which
permanent bridges and culverts are constructed.
IRC CLASS B LOADING: This loading is to be normally adopted for timber bridges.
IRC CLASS SPECIAL VEHICLE (SV) LOADING: This loading is to be adopted for design
of new bridges in select corridors as may be decided by concerned authorities where passage
of trailer vehicles carrying stator units, turbines, heavy equipment and machinery may occur
occasionally. This loading represents a spectrum of special vehicles in the country and should
be considered for inclusion in the design wherever applicable.
Define Vehicular Load:
