Horizontal forces:

Due to braking at fixed (FX)/ transversally guided (TG) bearing (Hl) = (B/2+μR)/ 4
1.5*391.6/4= 146.9

Longitudinal horizontal force on fixed(FX)/ TG bearings due to braking & seismic =

[B/2+μR+Ah*(DL+SIDL of bridge)]/ 4= 1.5*(0.2*313.2+0.36*5872*2)/4= 1609

Transverse horizontal force on fixed(FX)/ LG bearings due to seismic effect (Ht) =

ii) Deck movement at free ends:-

As/ clause 5.1.9 of IRC-83 (Part III) - 2018, the nominated design movement requirement shall be
increased by ± 20 mm in both directions of movement with a min. total movement of ± 50 mm in
bridge longitudinal direction and ± 20 mm in the bridge lateral direction unless restrained by guides.
As/ cl. 215.2 of IRC-6:2016 bridge has been designed for a temperature variation of ± 49° C.
Creep and shrinkage strain = 4.9E-4 + 1.05E-4 = 5.95 E-4
Due to temperature strain (LL) = 12 x 10E-6 x 49 x 38000 = ± 23 mm.
Due to temperature strain (TT) = 12 x 10E-6 x 49 x 5130 = ± 3.0 mm.

Due to creep & shrinkage strain (LL) = 5.95E-4 x 38000 = - 23 mm.

Due to creep & shrinkage strain (TT) = 5.95E-4 x 5130 = - 3.1 mm.

Total movement in LL (+) = 23mm; (-) = 23+23 = -46 mm > ± 50 mm

Total movement in TT (+) = 3.0mm; (-) = 3.0+3.1 = -6.1 mm > ± 20 mm

iii) Rotations:-

As/ clause 5.1.7 of IRC-83 (Part III) - 2018, the design rotation value shall be increased by ± 0.005
radians. Maximum design rotation shall not exceed 0.03 radians (SLS case).
Rotations has been taken from STAAD:-

For service condition:

Permanent end rotation (θ) = 0.003 + 0.005 = 0.008 radians
Transient end rotation (θ) = 0.002 radians.
Check for θv range under frequent combination = (0.75*0.002)*2 = 0.003 < 0.005 radians (OK)
Check for design rotation = 0.008+0.002 = 0.01 radians < 0.03 radians (OK)

For ultimate condition:

Permanent end rotation (θ) = 1.35*0.003 + 0.005 = 0.01 radians
Transient end rotation (θ) = 0.002*1.5 + 0.005 = 0.008 say 0.01 radians.
