Analysis and design of Longitudinal Girder:

Analysis and design of main girder involves the following procedures:


 Calculate the load from deck slab, cantilever portion, kerb, railing, parapet
 Determine the combination of live load that should be acted upon the required width of bridge
 Calculate the maximum bending moment and shear force at the critical sections due to dead load and live load
 Obtain the maximum value of bending moment and shear force to design the critical section
 Carry out curtailment, anchorage design and detailing of main steel bars.

Bending moment calculation due to Live Load


Class A Loading:

BM at L/8:
To calculate the maximum bending moment at section L/8, the load is moved from left to right of span of bridge and
after deciding the load at section which will cause the maximum bending moment at that section, the calculation for
BM proceeds.

Maximum bending moment for dead load is calculated at the same point for which the bending moment due to
live load will be maximum.

Calculation of live load on cross girder:

Class 70R track loading


To calculate the live load on the cross girder to have maximum bending moment due to class 70R track vehicle,
the load is placed symmetrically about the centre line of bridge as show in figure below

let us take the span which occupy half the track of 70R load as shown in red color and a part of cross girder as
the support

To calculate the live load on the cross girder to have maximum bending moment due to class 70R wheeled
vehicle, the load is placed symmetrically about the centre line of bridge as show in figure below

In the case of 70R wheeled load the tyre dimensions are so small in comparison with track of 70R track vehicle,
so we assume that the total wheel load act as a point load on the single girder

To calculate the live load on the cross girder to have maximum bending moment due to class 70R track vehicle,
the load is placed symmetrically about the centre line of bridge as show in figure below
