1.0 Design Note :


It is proposed to construct a Through type Steel truss Girder bridge of 50 M clear span . The

superstructure consists of 265 mm thick(avg.) RCC slab deck with concrete grade M30 and steel

grade Fe415 . This RCC deck rests on cross girder

of built up steel section with spacing of 3660

mm mm c/c ( maximum) .These cross girder rests on main truss girder spaced at

5250 mm c/c .

The bridge is of Carriageway width of 4.25 M and is designed for IRC Class A loading

Top chord bracings is provided to take care of laterals forces due to wind and seismic .

Relevant IRC codes of the Practice are referred for the design purpose.

(Forces in Steel truss Girder are calculated using STAADPRO 2006 computer software developed

and marketed by Research engineers institute USA . )

Relevant IRC codes of the Practice are referred for the design purpose.

The bridge is also checked for seismic forces with following parameters

Seismic Zone factor = 0.24 for Zone IV

Response reduction factor = 2.5

Importance factor = 1
Average response acceleration
Coefficient for 5% damping 2.5

Main steel girders rests on Abutments on either side of the Nallah . The safe bearing capacity

of soil taken in the design is 40 .0 t/m2 ( rocky strata provided by the client )

The left side as well as right side abutment shall be of RCC in concrete grade M20 except for

dirt wall and abutment cap which shall be in RCC with concrete grade M30 and steel Grade Fe 415 .

3.0 HYDRAULLIC CALCULATIONS
( From the cross section of the Nallah provided by the client )
Calculation for Mean Scour depth
Since the bed material of site is hard rock there will be no scour
Calculation of depth of foundation
Thickness of the deck assumed = 1.5 m
Vertical clearance = 1.2 m
RL of HFL = 94.15
For left side abutment
RL of average Bed level = 90.65
Depth of foundation below MSL ( ref cl 705.2 of IRC:78 - 2000)= 1.5 m
RL of founding Level = 90.65 - 1.5
= 89.15 say 89.15
Formation Level = 94.15+1.5+1.2
= 96.85 say 100
Hence Height of Abutment 'H' = 100 - 89.15
= 10.85 m
For right side abutment
RL of average Bed level = 94.15
Depth of foundation below MSL ( ref cl 705.2 of IRC:78 - 2000)= 1.5 m
RL of founding Level = 94.15 - 1.5
= 92.65 say 92.65
Formation Level = 100
Hence Height of Abutment 'H' = 100 - 92.65
= 7.35 m

Forces due to Impact of floating bodies , centrifugal force , temperature (Fte) and
effects due to Deformation , secondary forces , Erection , Wave pressure , Vehicle
collision and Grade are not obtainable in this case . Also for this zone , seismic effect
will be much more than Wind . Therefore for service condition load combination I & VI
and for construction stage load combination IX of Table I of IRC:6-2000 are considered
for the design of members. However for stability, base pressures and design of
foundation, load combination (i) and (i) + Feq ( both with and without live load) shall be
considered as laid down in cl. 706.1 of IRC;78-2000.

Refer Appendix B for check for tension ,if any.

Appendix B
Since tension occurs in the heel side of the foundation , there is a reduction in the contact area of the
soil and hence there is a increase in the maximum base pressure at toe side after redistribution of
pressures .
( Service case with live load , HFL condition , Seismic case with Av+ve will experience maximum tension. )

If x-x and z-z are the two orthogonal axis through the physical ceteroid of the overall section b x d
Mx and Mz are the moment about these axis and P the axial thrust. ex and ez are the local eccentricities
from x-x and z-z axis . ex =Mx/P and is measured along z-z axis, ez = Mz/P and is measured along x-x axis
e'x and e'z are the distances from the X and Z axis to the c.g. of effective section . Ieffxx and Ieffzz are the
second moment of areas of the effective sections about axis parallel to X and Z axis passing through its
centeroid. Ieffxz is the product of inertia of the effective section about axis parallel to X and Z axis passing
through its centeroid
The inclination of the axis of the resultant moment to x-x axis given by :

Forces due to Impact of floating bodies , centrifugal force , temperature (Fte) and
effects due to Deformation , secondary forces , Erection , Wave pressure , Vehicle
collision and Grade are not obtainable in this case . Also for this zone , seismic effect
will be much more than Wind . Therefore for service condition load combination I & VI
and for construction stage load combination IX of Table I of IRC:6-2000 are considered
for the design of members. However for stability, base pressures and design of
foundation, load combination (i) and (i) + Feq ( both with and without live load) shall be
considered as laid down in cl. 706.1 of IRC;78-2000.

Refer Appendix B for check for tension ,if any.

Appendix B
Since tension occurs in the heel side of the foundation , there is a reduction in the contact area of the
soil and hence there is a increase in the maximum base pressure at toe side after redistribution of
pressures .
( Service case with live load , HFL condition , Seismic case with Av+ve will experience maximum tension. )

Forces due to Impact of floating bodies , centrifugal force , temperature (Fte) and
effects due to Deformation , secondary forces , Erection , Wave pressure , Vehicle
collision and Grade are not obtainable in this case . Also for this zone , seismic effect
will be much more than Wind . Therefore for service condition load combination I & VI
and for construction stage load combination IX of Table I of IRC:6-2000 are considered
for the design of members. However for stability, base pressures and design of
foundation, load combination (i) and (i) + Feq ( both with and without live load) shall be
considered as laid down in cl. 706.1 of IRC;78-2000.

Check for Depth:
deff,reqd.= { 5.94 x 10^5 / (100 x15.1 ) }^0.5

Area of steel required = 5.94 x 10^5 / 2040 x 0.889 x 20.5
= 15.98 cm2/m
Amin= 0.12 x 26.5

Hence provide 16mm dia bar at 125 mm c/c + 0 mm dia bar at 125 mm c/c giving an area
of 16.08 cm2/m ht.
Check for shear :-
Shear stress at critical section = (5.84X10^3)/(100x20.5)
Td = 2.85 kg/cm2
For pt=16.08/20.5=0.784 & concrete grade M20 permissible shear stress

b) Wt of Shuttering and live load @ (100+400) kg / m2 = 0.5x3.66
= 1.83 t/m
c) Self wt. of cross girder @ 100 kg/m = 0.1 t/m
Total load= 2.57+1.83+ 0.1

S.F. = 4.5x5.25/2

Provide ISMB400 with 0X0 mm thk top flg plt , 175X12 mm thk bottom flg. Plt and
BM = 15.5 tm
Area of the section = 99.5 cm2
C.G. of the section from bottom = (99.5X16.85)/99.5

Ixx = 27491.65 cm4
Iyy = 2765.85 cm4

k1= 1.00 k2= 0.00
Fcb = 1(3792.16+0x3675.85)1

Hence allowable bending stress,
scb = (0.66x3792.16x250/(3792.16^1.4+250^1.4)^(1/1.4))x10.2
= 1656.79 Kg/cm2
Hence bending stress developed,
Pcb = 15.5x10^5/1631.55
= 950.02 kg/cm2 less than 1656.79 kg/cm2 hence safe
Shear stress = 11.81x10^3/(0.89x41.2)

Bottom chord bracing
Total exposed area of the bridge for top/bottom chord = 152.52/2 + 35.12
= 111.38 m2 say 125 m2
Assuming wind force @ 110 kg/m2
Wind force = 125X110 + 31.84X300

Wind force @ 450 kg/m = 51.84X450

z= Seismic zone factor 0.24 for Zone IV
R= Response reduction factor 2.5
l= Factor for importance of bridge 1
Sa/g= Average response acceleration
Coefficient for 5% damping 2.5 for medium soil
Ah= Horizontal seismic coefficient = z/2xSa/gxI/R

Horizontal seismic coefficient = 0.12
Vertical seismic coefficient = 0.08
Dead load effects
Total dead load of the superstructure = 11X14X2

Horizontal force due to live load = 6.65 t
(taking into account 50% of live load)
Total horizontal force = 36.96+6.65
= 43.61 t
Hence Maximum horizontal force = 43.61 t
Force in bottom chord = 43.61
= 43.61 t
Force per panel point = 43.61/9
= 4.85 t
Reaction at support = 21.805 t

Since the bottom chord is stiffened with Solid RCC deck there is no need of bottom chord bracing
as RCC deck will take care of lateral forces due to wind
Overturning Effects due to wind
Max horizontal force due to wind at top chord = 11.66 t loaded structure
Height of truss = 6.3 m
Distance between trusses = 5.25 m
Additional vertical load at bottom chord = 11.66X6.3/5.25
= 13.99 t
Additional vertical load per panel point due to overturning = 13.99/14
= 1 t
Dead load per panel point = 11 t
Fraction of additional per panel point due to overturning = 1/11

12.0 Design of bearings
Computation of Vertical loads and & Horizontal forces
Refer Appendix A for Loads
Span (c/c of bearings ) = 51.24 m
Total dead load of superstructure = 11X14X2
= 308 t
Dead Load Reaction per Bearing = 77 t
Live loads ( IRC Class A vehicle governs the design ) refer computer output file
Total dead load of superstructure on one Abutment = 154 t
Live load reaction at A ( live load + foot load ) = 56.68 t
Live load reaction at B ( live load + foot load ) = 51.83 t
Live load reaction at A ( foot load only ) = 13.68 t
Live load reaction at B ( foot load only ) = 13.68 t
Live load reaction at A ( live load only ) = 43 t
Live load reaction at B (live load only ) = 38.15 t
Reaction factor = 0.66
Braking force ' H ' = 0.2x0.77X55.4+0.10x0.77X50 = 10.61 t
Maximum horizontal force = H -0.03x(RDL+RLL) Or H/2+0.03x(RDL+RLL)
H= 10.61 t RDL = 77 t
Maximum horizontal force on rocker bearing = 10.61-0.03x(77+38.15)

0.12
Horizontal seismic force on dead load only = 0.12x308
= 36.96 t
This force will be taken by rocker bearings only
Hence horizontal force per Rocker bearing = 36.96/2
= 18.48 t
Vertical seismic force on Superstructure = 0.06x308
= 18.48 t
Load per Bearing = 18.48/4

Check for Depth:
deff,reqd.= { 5.94 x 10^5 / (100 x15.1 ) }^0.5
= 19.83 cms < 20.5cms safe
Area of steel required = 5.94 x 10^5 / 2040 x 0.889 x 20.5
= 15.98 cm2/m
Amin= 0.12 x 26.5
= 3.18 cm2/m
Hence provide 16mm dia bar at 125 mm c/c + 0 mm dia bar at 125 mm c/c giving an area
of 16.08 cm2/m ht.
Check for shear :-
Shear stress at critical section = (5.84X10^3)/(100x20.5)
Td = 2.85 kg/cm2
For pt=16.08/20.5=0.784 & concrete grade M20 permissible shear stress
Tc = 3.83 kg/cm2 safe
Distribution reinforcement:
(cl 305.18 IRC:21-2000)
B.M. = 0.2X(1.06+0.33)+0.3X4.55
= 1.37 tm/m
Area of steel required = 1.37 x 10^5 / 2040 x 0.889 x 18.9
= 4 cm2/m
Amin= 2.5 cm2/m
Hence provide 10mm dia bar at 190 mm c/c giving an area of 4.13 cm2/m
Design of Steel Cross girder:-

Case (1) Construction Stage Loads
a) Dead load of Slab = 0.265x3.66x2.65
= 2.57 t/m
b) Wt of Shuttering and live load @ (100+400) kg / m2 = 0.5x3.66
= 1.83 t/m
c) Self wt. of cross girder @ 100 kg/m = 0.1 t/m

S.F. = 4.5x5.25/2

Try Builtup section with 500x10 mm thck web plt+ top/bottom plt 225x10 mm thk
BM = 15.5 tm
Area of the section = 95 cm2
C.G. of the section from bottom = (95X26)/95
= 26 cm
Ixx = 39681.67 cm4
Iyy = 1902.6 cm4
Zxx = 39681.67/26
= 1526.22 cm3
rxx = (39681.67/95)^0.5

ryy = (1902.6/95)^0.5
= 4.48 cm
Length of member = 525 cm
Effective length of member= 0.85x525
= 446.25 cm
L/rmin= 446.25/4.48
= 99.61 cm
L/rmin.= 99.61
Caclulations for allowable stress:
Fcb = k1(x+k2.y).c2/c1
for d/t= 52/1
= 52
& L/rmin = 99.61 c2/c1= 1.00
x= 267.08x[{(1+(1/20)x(99.61/52)^2)}]^0.5
290.55
y= 26.5x10^5/99.61^2
267.08
k1= 1.00 k2= 0.00
Fcb = 1(290.55+0x267.08)1
= 290.55
Hence allowable bending stress,
scb = (0.66x290.55x250/(290.55^1.4+250^1.4)^(1/1.4))x10.2
= 1101.51 Kg/cm2
Hence bending stress developed,
Pcb = 15.5x10^5/1526.22
= 1015.58 kg/cm2 less than 1101.51 kg/cm2 hence safe
Shear stress = 11.81x10^3/(1x52)
= 227.12 Kg/cm2 less than 969 kg/cm2 hence safe

Foot load of 500 kg/m2
Available carriageway width = 4.25 - 2.3 = 1.95 m
load = 1.95X0.5 = 0.98 t/m
total load = 0.98X51.84 = 50.8 t
Ra = Rb = 25.4 t
Assuming this load is shared equally by both truss girders
Load per panel point = 50.8/2x14 = 1.81 t say 1.82 t
Forces in the members of the truss due to dead and live load are calculated using computer

Assuming wind force @ 110 kg/m2
Wind force = 110X110 + 31.84X300

Since the bottom chord is stiffened with Solid RCC deck there is no need of bottom chord bracing
as RCC deck will take care of lateral forces due to wind
Overturning Effects due to wind
Max horizontal force due to wind at top chord = 11.66 t loaded structure
Height of truss = 6.3 m
Distance between trusses = 5.25 m
Additional vertical load at bottom chord = 11.66X6.3/5.25

12.0 Design of bearings
Computation of Vertical loads and & Horizontal forces
Refer Appendix A for Loads
Span (c/c of bearings ) = 51.24 m
Total dead load of superstructure = 11.5X14X2
= 322 t
Dead Load Reaction per Bearing = 80.5 t
Live loads ( IRC Class A vehicle governs the design ) refer computer output file
Total dead load of superstructure on one Abutment = 161 t
Live load reaction at A ( live load + foot load ) = 53.23 t
Live load reaction at B ( live load + foot load ) = 48.17 t
Live load reaction at A ( foot load only ) = 12.74 t
Live load reaction at B ( foot load only ) = 12.74 t
Live load reaction at A ( live load only ) = 40.49 t
Live load reaction at B (live load only ) = 35.43 t
Reaction factor = 0.66
Braking force ' H ' = 0.2x0.77X55.4+0.10x0.77X50 = 10.61 t
Maximum horizontal force = H -0.03x(R DL
+R LL
) Or H/2+0.03x(R DL
+R LL
)
H= 10.61 t RDL = 80.5 t
Maximum horizontal force on rocker bearing = 10.61-0.03x(80.5+35.43)
7.13 t
Or 10.61/2+0.03x(80.5+35.43)

Seismic Loads and Forces
z= Seismic zone factor 0.24
R= Response reduction factor 2.5
l= Factor for importance of bridge 1
Sa/g= Average response acceleration
Coefficient for 5% damping 2.5 for medium foundation soils
Ah= Horizontal seismic coefficient z/2xSa/gxI/R
= 0.12x2.5x1/2.5
0.12
Horizontal seismic force on dead load only = 0.12x322
= 38.64 t
This force will be taken by rocker bearings only
Hence horizontal force per Rocker bearing = 38.64/2
= 19.32 t
Vertical seismic force on Superstructure = 0.06x322
= 19.32 t
Load per Bearing = 19.32/4
= 4.83 t
Hence Max horizontal force on rocker bearing = 8.78 t Normal case
= 8.78+19.32= 28.1 t Seismic case
Maximum horizontal force on roller bearing = 0.03x(RDL+RLL)

Total B.M.= 1.18+0.37+4.77

Check for Depth:
deff,reqd.= { 6.32 x 10^5 / (100 x15.1 ) }^0.5
= 20.46 cms < 21.5cms safe
Area of steel required = 6.32 x 10^5 / 2040 x 0.889 x 21.5
= 16.21 cm2/m
Amin= 0.12 x 26.5
= 3.18 cm2/m
Hence provide 16mm dia bar at 115 mm c/c + 0 mm dia bar at 125 mm c/c giving an area
of 17.48 cm2/m ht.
Check for shear :-
Shear stress at critical section = (5.87X10^3)/(100x21.5)
Td = 2.73 kg/cm2
For pt=17.48/21.5=0.813 & concrete grade M20 permissible shear stress
Tc = 3.88 kg/cm2 safe
Distribution reinforcement:
(cl 305.18 IRC:21-2000)
B.M. = 0.2X(1.18+0.37)+0.3X4.77

Area of steel required = 1.43 x 10^5 / 2040 x 0.889 x 19.9
= 3.96 cm2/m
Amin= 2.5 cm2/m
Hence provide 10mm dia bar at 190 mm c/c giving an area of 4.13 cm2/m

Case (1) Construction Stage Loads
a) Dead load of Slab = 0.265x3.85x2.65

b) Wt of Shuttering and live load @ (100+400) kg / m2 = 0.5x3.85
= 1.925 t/m
c) Self wt. of cross girder @ 100 kg/m = 0.1 t/m
Total load= 2.7+1.925+ 0.1

Try Builtup section with 500x10 mm thck web plt+ top/bottom plt 225x10 mm thk
BM = 16.3 tm
Area of the section = 95 cm2
C.G. of the section from bottom = (95X26)/95
= 26 cm
Ixx = 39681.67 cm4
Iyy = 1902.6 cm4
Zxx = 39681.67/26

rxx = (39681.67/95)^0.5

Length of member = 525 cm
Effective length of member= 0.85x525
= 446.25 cm
L/rmin= 446.25/4.48

L/rmin.= 99.61
Caclulations for allowable stress:
Fcb = k1(x+k2.y).c2/c1
for d/t= 52/1
= 52
& L/rmin = 99.61 c2/c1= 1.00

290.55
y= 26.5x10^5/99.61^2
267.08
k1= 1.00 k2= 0.00
Fcb = 1(290.55+0x267.08)1
= 290.55
Hence allowable bending stress,
scb = (0.66x290.55x250/(290.55^1.4+250^1.4)^(1/1.4))x10.2
= 1101.51 Kg/cm2
Hence bending stress developed,
Pcb = 16.3x10^5/1526.22
= 1068 kg/cm2 less than 1101.51 kg/cm2 hence safe
Shear stress = 12.42x10^3/(1x52)

Hence Pac = 133.1 ( Refer Table 11.1 of IRC 24 2001)

Hence Capacity of section = 1357.62x19.52

Bottom chord bracing
Total exposed area of the bridge for top/bottom chord = 142.125/2 + 36.92
= 107.9825 m2 say 110 m2
Assuming wind force @ 110 kg/m2
Wind force = 110X110 + 34.5X300
= 19450 kg
Wind force @ 450 kg/m = 54.5X450
= 24525 kg
Wind force @ 240 kg/m2 = 110X240
26400 kg
Hence Maximum wind force = 26400 kg
b) Lateral forces due to seismic
a) Seismic coefficient
z= Seismic zone factor 0.24 for Zone IV
R= Response reduction factor 2.5
l= Factor for importance of bridge 1
Sa/g= Average response acceleration
Coefficient for 5% damping 2.5 for medium soil
Ah= Horizontal seismic coefficient = z/2xSa/gxI/R
0.12x2.5x1/2.5
Horizontal seismic coefficient = 0.12
Vertical seismic coefficient = 0.08
Dead load effects
Total dead load of the superstructure = 11.5X14X2
= 322 t
Horizontal force due to dead load = 0.12X322
= 38.64 t
Live loads effects ( Double lane of IRC CLASS A vehicle governs)
Maximum live load on the bridge = 55.4X2
= 110.8 t
Horizontal force due to live load = 6.65 t
(taking into account 50% of live load)
Total horizontal force = 38.64+6.65
= 45.29 t
Hence Maximum horizontal force = 45.29 t
Force in bottom chord = 45.29
= 45.29 t
Force per panel point = 45.29/7
= 6.47 t
Reaction at support = 22.645 t
Wind force in braces unloaded structue
First panel = (22.645 - 0.5X6.47)X9.01/5.25

Second panel = (22.645 - 1.5X6.47)X9.01/5.25
= 23 t
Third panel = (22.645 - 2.5X6.47)X9.01/5.25

L6L7 (19.415X25.62 - 6.47X9X3.66)/5.25 55.00 tension

Since the bottom chord is stiffened with Solid RCC deck there is no need of bottom chord bracing
as RCC deck will take care of lateral forces due to wind
Overturning Effects due to wind
Max horizontal force due to wind at top chord = 12.26 t loaded structure
Height of truss = 6.3 m
Distance between trusses = 5.25 m
Additional vertical load at bottom chord = 12.26X6.3/5.25
= 14.71 t
Additional vertical load per panel point due to overturning = 14.71/14
= 1.05 t
Dead load per panel point = 11.5 t
Fraction of additional per panel point due to overturning = 1.05/11.5
= 0.09

12.0 Design of bearings
Computation of Vertical loads and & Horizontal forces
Refer Appendix A for Loads
Span (c/c of bearings ) = 53.9 m
Total dead load of superstructure = 11.5X14X2
= 322 t
Dead Load Reaction per Bearing = 80.5 t
Live loads ( IRC Class A vehicle governs the design ) refer computer output file
Total dead load of superstructure on one Abutment = 161 t
Live load reaction at A ( live load + foot load ) = 53.23 t
Live load reaction at B ( live load + foot load ) = 48.17 t
Live load reaction at A ( foot load only ) = 12.74 t
Live load reaction at B ( foot load only ) = 12.74 t
Live load reaction at A ( live load only ) = 40.49 t
Live load reaction at B (live load only ) = 35.43 t
Reaction factor = 0.66
Braking force ' H ' = 0.2x0.77X55.4+0.10x0.77X50 = 10.61 t
Maximum horizontal force = H -0.03x(RDL+RLL) Or H/2+0.03x(RDL+RLL)
H= 10.61 t RDL = 80.5 t
Maximum horizontal force on rocker bearing = 10.61-0.03x(80.5+35.43)
7.13 t
Or 10.61/2+0.03x(80.5+35.43)
8.78 t
Hence Max horizontal force on rocker bearing = 8.78 t
Loads on bearings
Distance between centre of bearing and top of road 1.2 m
Modification in Reaction at Bearing Level = 10.61/53.9x(1.2+1.2)
0.47 t
Modified Live Load reaction at A ( fixed end ) = 40.49 - 0.47 40.02 t
Modified Live Load reaction at B ( free end ) = 35.43+0.47 35.9 t
Seismic Loads and Forces
z= Seismic zone factor 0.24
R= Response reduction factor 2.5
l= Factor for importance of bridge 1
Sa/g= Average response acceleration
Coefficient for 5% damping 2.5 for medium foundation soils
Ah= Horizontal seismic coefficient z/2xSa/gxI/R
= 0.12x2.5x1/2.5
0.12
Horizontal seismic force on dead load only = 0.12x322
= 38.64 t
This force will be taken by rocker bearings only
Hence horizontal force per Rocker bearing = 38.64/2
= 19.32 t
Vertical seismic force on Superstructure = 0.06x322
= 19.32 t
Load per Bearing = 19.32/4
= 4.83 t
Hence Max horizontal force on rocker bearing = 8.78 t Normal case
= 8.78+19.32= 28.1 t Seismic case
Maximum horizontal force on roller bearing = 0.03x(R DL
+R LL
)
= 0.03x(80.5+40.49)
3.63 t Normal case
= 3.63+0.03x4.83
= 3.77 t Seismic case

Horizontal force due to live load = 6.65 t
(taking into account 50% of live load)
Total horizontal force = 38.64+6.65

Hence Maximum horizontal force = 45.29 t
Force in bottom chord = 45.29

Since the bottom chord is stiffened with Solid RCC deck there is no need of bottom chord bracing
as RCC deck will take care of lateral forces due to wind

Overturning Effects due to wind


Max horizontal force due to wind at top chord = 11.66 t loaded structure
Height of truss = 6.3 m
Distance between trusses = 5.25 m
Additional vertical load at bottom chord = 11.66X6.3/5.25 = 13.99 t
Additional vertical load per panel point due to overturning = 13.99/14

Since tension occurs in the heel side of the foundation , there is a reduction in the contact area of
the soil and hence there is a increase in the maximum base pressure at toe side after redistribution
of pressures .
( Dry condition with earth pressure case will experience maximum tension. )
