99. The design of the substructure is carried out based on the theory of sections subjected to
axial force and biaxial bending. Routines available in standard references are adopted for
finding out the stresses in steel and concrete at critical sections.
100. Foundation. Depending upon the sub soil investigations, Pile foundations are proposed at
abutment and pier locations. Foundation depth is fixed at about 25m below the ground
level.
101. Design of Pile Foundation. From the design loads obtained for piers and abutments, the
vertical and horizontal load distribution on each pile of the pile group is evaluated using
standards methods. All the load cases considered for pier design are considered for pile
design also. The loads and moments acting on the pile cap are transferred to the piles by
the combined stress equation. The lateral load coming on each pile for all load cases is
calculated and corresponding longitudinal and transverse moments are found depending on
the depth of fixity of piles. The horizontal and vertical loads on the pile are compared
with the respective capacities of the pile. The design is carried out using Standard Charts.
