A bridge is a construction whose function is to connect between two areas separated
by physical obstacles, such as canyons, river channels, irrigation canals, railways, highways, etc. Semampir IV-A is a bridge crossing the Jagir River at KM 6+800 from Surabaya. The length of the bridge is 116.2 meters divided into 5 spans, while the width of the bridge deck is 11.6 meters. The width of the right and left sidewalks are 2 meters. The bridge is located on Jl. Dr. Ir. H. Soekarno, Medokan Semampir, Sukolilo District, Surabaya City, East Java. The re-planning of the bridge structure uses a steel Through Arch bridge with a width of 14.5 meters, a length of 120 meters, and a height of 21 meters. In re-planning the bridge structure, it must meet the new regulations, including SNI 1725: 2016, RSNI T-03- 2005, SNI 2833: 2016 and other regulations related to steel bridge design. For structural analysis used the SAP 2000 program. The results of structural analysis show that the dimensions of the box truss structure were 900.600.50.50, the dimensions of the tensile boxes were 900.600.50.50, the dimensions of the diagonal and vertical beams were 600.600.25.25, the dimensions of the longitudinal girders were using WF 500.300.11.18 and the transverse girders were using WF 900.300.18.34.
