j=1-k/3=1-0.37/3=0.876
D real=50-(5-2.50/2)=43.75cm, Where:
Thick. of slab=50cm, Protection. layer=5cm, d steel bar =25mm to be used
As=Total B.M./fs’*j*d=22.50*105/1400*0.876*43.75=41.93cm2
#9 dia. 25mm in 100cm of slab
As=0.55/(L effect .)1/2 * As main steel bars When the main steel bars is parallel to the
Line of traffic
As=1.20/(L effect.)1/2 *As main s.b, When the main steel bars is right angle to the
Line of traffic

Shear Force:
MB=0, RA*8.10-q*8.12/2 RA=(1.347*8.12/2)/8.10=5.45 ton , RA=RB=5.45 t

Live load shear force:
Fig.6
Real bond shear stress : V bond=Q/∑0*j*d , Where: ∑0= # of unbent steel bars *Perimeter of bar
Here: From 9 steel bars , 3 bars is unbent in 100 cm
∑0 = 3*pai*2.25 = 3*3.14*2.25 = 23.55
Real bond stress = 16.15*103/23.55*0.87*43.75 = 18kg/Sqm
Allowable shear stress = 0.1*fc = 0.1*210 = 21kg/Sqm
Therefore:
Real shear stress=18kg/Sqm<Allowable shear stress=21kg/Sqm
Hence safe against bond shear stress
Wing Walls:
1-Length of wing wall 1.50-2.0m times the height of abutment:
L=(1.50 or 2.0)H
2- The width of the wing wall at the base should be from 0.35H to 0.40H
where: H is height of wing wall.

Design of slab:
Fig.7
B.M. for live load = (0.80*1.64*l+1/16) P20 = (0.80*1.64*1.07+1/16) 7.25 = 0.998 ton-m

As = 0.67 * 10 .048 = 6.73 cm2
Spacing = 100 * 1.13/6.73 = 17 cm center to center, Use # 7 dia 12mm @ 17 cm
center to center.
Dead load:
Distribution of Wheel load on longitudinal beam = Span1/1.89 for one line of traffic.
Where: Span1 is center to center distance between two beams, and 1.89 is constant
Therefore : Distrib. wheel load on long. beam = 1.47/1.89 = 0.742
Exerted load from rear tire of vehicle = 7.25* 0.742 = 5.379 Ton
Exerted load from front tire of vehicle = 3.625/2 = 1.82 * 0.742 = 1.345 Ton
Where: 3.625 ton is load on front wheel of vehicle .

Total Mr = 0 = -Rl*14.60 .+ 5.38*10.84 + 1.345*2.34 + 5.38*6.59 = 6.638 ton-m
Threfore Rl = 6.638 ton-m.
Shear stress:
Fig.10
Fig.11
Shear of Impact :
Impact factor = 0.285 Qmax. imp. = 0.265* Qmax.live load = 0.285*11.626 = 3.31 ton

Check the section of beam:
Mark of concrete = 250 kg/cm2 T.c= Tensile shear strength of concrete = 20.0
S = 2.2 (coefficient of safety)
V= 9.79 > V’= 9.09 Therefore, need for shear steel bars
From other hand : V = 9.79 < Tc= 20, There fore no need to change the section of the
beam.
Now determine the distance from where shear steel bars required:
Shear stress to support by main bent steel bars: Tm. bar = 0.80 R-Ts = 0.8*21.145- 13.636= 3.28 ton
Therefore from the table of steel bars strength the dia of 36 mm has strength =18897
kg/cm2 hence no need to bent the main steel bars, however one main bar will be bent up.
Note : If the depth of the beam exceed 60cm skin reinforcement on both faces ob web or beam in
the form of Longitudinal bars (min 12 mm bars spacing not more than 20 cm should be
provided. Such reinforcement on each face should be at lest 0.05% of cross section area.

Design of masonry abutment for bridge:
When the width of stream abstracted by abutment or pier than the scour depth :
D’scour = D (W/Labst.)2/3 , where: W is normal width of river and Labst. is length of
abstracted water way.
Dscour .max.= (1.50 to 2.0) D scour
Design Example:
Data:
Type of river bed soil : Medium silt
River discharge (Q) = V * A = 300.00 cum/sec
Assume V = 2.5 m/sec, and Cross section Area (A) = 120.00 m2
Supper structure : T- Beam and slab one lane bridge of clear span 14m
Loading : HS20
Backfill : Gravel with angle of repose φ = 400 , w = 1.80 ton/m3
Angle of internal friction of soil on masonry β= z =200
Angle of abutment slop with ground level θ = 108.160
Angle of backfill soil with ground level α = s = 0
Solution:
Normal scour depth = 0.473(Q/f)1/3 = 0.473(300/0.85)1/3 = 3.34 m.
Max. Scour depth = 1.5 * 3.34 = 5.01 m below the average height of flood level.
(see scour depth calculation in culvert).

Assume Preliminary dimension of abutment :
Fig.13
Longitudinal forces:
a. Force due to attractive effort = 0.20 * HS20 load = 0.20 * 20 = 4.0 ton
Force per meter length of abutment = 4.0 /5 = 0.80 ton
b. Force due to temperature variation = 0.15 * total load per meter width of
abutment = 0.15 * 12.404 = 1.861 ton.
Total longitudinal forces = 0.80 + 1.861 = 2.66 ton, this force act at the bearing level.
Earth pressure :
P = 3.086 ton/m
Horizontal component of (P) = 3.086 * Cos(108.16-90) = 2.932 ton/m
Vertical component of (P) = 3.086 Sin(108.16-90) = 0.962 ton/m
Height above base of center of pressure = 0.42 * 4.40 = 1.85m

R.C.C FOOT BRIDGE
Data given:
Design process:
Height (depth) of beam : (span/15 to 20) for light load : 18/15 = 1.20 m
Width of the beam : 2/5 * depth = 2/5 * 1.20 = 0.48 m, assume 0.40 m
Slab design :
Dead load :
Dead load of slab : 0.15 * 2400 = 360 kg/m
Live load :
Weight of camel with load : 160 ser = 160 * 7 = 1,120 kg
Fig 17
Total load (q) = Dead load + Live load = 360 + 750 = 1,110 kg/m 2
Leffect. = 1.70 * 1.05 = 1.785m
Area of Steel in one meter of span = A s= B.M/fs* J*d = 442 *102/1400 * 0.876 * 15 = 442*102/18396
As = 2.403 cm 2
Hence provide # 5 dia 8mm @ 20cm center to center (As = 2.51cm2 > 2.41cm2)
Design of beam:

Dead load from hand rail : 30kg/m
Total load (q) = 944.0+ 960.0+ 30.0 = 1,934.0 kg/m
Effective length of beam = 18*1.05 = 18.90 m

a. Dead Load
Dead load of slab : 0.20* 2.4 + 0.40* 0.25* 2.40 = 0.72 ton/m2
Dead of asphalt : 0.07* 2.20 = 0.15 ton/m2
Total dead load (q) : 0.87 ton/m2
b. Live Load ;

Area of steel bars in one (m) slab:
Longitudinal steel bars = 0.67 * 12.32 = 8.25 cm2 Hence provide # 6 dia.14 mm (As = 9.24cm2)
Dead load:
Wt of (I) beam +Wt of diaphragms +Wt of angle Iron Wt of RCC slab =
(0.90*0.02*7.85) +(0.04*0.30*7.85)2 + (12*0.0054)/23 + (0.60*0.01*7.85) +
+(0.15*0.017*7.85)2 + 1.56*0.20*2.4 + 0.07 *2.20 = 1.30 ton/m2
Fig.20

Total Moment = 95.17 + 74.595+ 17.98 = 187.75 ton-m
Note : To work together the RCC & steel , the span of RCC slab between two I beam will
decrease 10 times , therefore span/10 = 157/10 = 15.70
Total Area of I beam and RCC , A = A1+A2 = (15.70*20) + ((90*2) + (30*4)2) = 314

S = Q/2*k*Pq = 841.90/2*0.70*1100 = 0.54 cm = 5.40 mm
S = 5.4 mm < 8 mm (minimum thick.of weld) O.K
But for more safety we will take 10 mm therefore S = 1cm

SUSPENSION BRIDGE
Data :
Fig 24
Height of Tower = Dip + Inv.Dip + Length of least suspen. = 18' + 4'-6" + 2' = 24'-6"
23
Therefore: Total length of suspender :
Total length of suspender cable ( for entire bridge) = 388.6355 * 4 + 4 = 1558.542 Feet
24
Weight of suspenders cable per running foot of bridge = 24.288/4 = 6.072 lbs/ft
Weight of Main cables per running foot of bridge = sides*No of cables * Self wt of cable =
= 2*3*2 = 12.0 lbs/ft
Fig 25
25
Uniformly distributed load (w) = 0.3096 kips/ft
Using : Dia (1) inch cable (19)wires each (0.2) inch dia.
Number of cables required for entire bridge = 162,212/32656.25 = 4.967 for both side
of bridge.
Therefore : We Take (3) Cables of (1) inch on each side.
Fig 26
Fig 27
Assuming that the total tension in cable can cause sliding and is increased by 50%
Therefore : F = 162.212 * 1.50 = 243.318 kips
26
Volume of block required = Total Wt/Unit Wt of block = 405.530/0.15 = 2703.533 cft
Using: Locally made ¾ inch diameter cable 19 wires strands each of 0.2 inch diameter.
27
Extra high strength grade with breaking strength = 58,300 lbs
Fig 28
Bearing Pressure = Wt of Block/Contact Area = 65.50/9*9 = 0.81 k/ft 2 < 2.24 K/ft2
Hence O.K.
Load on one Suspender = Load from Wooden Deck + Snow Load + Live load =
= 72.43 * 3.5/2 + 87.5 * 3.5/2 + 105 * 3.5/2 = 463.63 lbs
Using : dia ½ inch cable with 7 strands each dia 0.165 inch .
High strength grade = 18,800 lbs
Breaking strength 18,800 lbs
F.O.S = 4 Working strength = 18,800/4 = 4700 lbs
Design of column :
28
H = T * Cos 14.93 = 162.946/2 * Cos 14.93 = 78.75 kips
Where: T = Tension in main cable.
V= T * Sin 14.93 = 162.946/2 * Sin 14.93 = 21.0 kips
Load on column = 2*21 = 42 kips Increasing by 70%,: Pu = 42*1.70 = 71.4 kips
Fig 29
Self weight of Footing = 10% of the total load = 170* 0.10 = 17.00 kips
Area Required :
Fig 30
The load per foot run of the footing = 9 * 1.574 = 14.167 k/ft
29
Shear force to the left of the column (A) = 14.167 * 3.25 = 46.043 kips
Where: 3.25 = distance from the left side toe of the footing to column center.
Shear force to the right of column (A) = Load on footing – 46.043 = 85- 46.043 = 38.957 kips
