One Truss Bridge of 38m span is provided at one end ( Rajeev Lochan Temple side) in Rajim. Analysis
has been carried out by STAAD Pro software. Design data and Load cases considered are as follow.
Design Data
1 Span of Bridge 38 m
2 Height of Bridge 5 m
3 Passage Width 3.25 m
4 Live Load 5 kN/m2 ( Pedetrian Loading )
5 Wind Velocity 39 m/s
6 Seismic Zone II
7 Reference IS Code IS875, IS1893 ( Part 3 ) , IRC 6 : 2014
Loads
Dead load
Self weight of structure is applied by SELFWEIGHT command.
A chequered plate of 5mm thk weight is applied.
= 0.00525 x 78.5 = 0.412 kN/m2
Live load
A load of 5kN/m2 is applied on carrigeway width.
Gust factor G = 2
Annex C : Table C1 Cd = 1.9
Clause 9.4.1
Zone 2 Z= 0.10
Table 2 I = 1.2
Table 3 R = 1 ( For super structure )
Fig. 1 Sa/g = 2.5
Ah = 0.15
So,
Fh = 87 kN
Wind Force is greater than Seismic Force, So seismic force is not applied in STAAD Pro software.
Load Combinations :
IRC 6 Clause 209.3.7 The bridges shall not be considered to be carrying any live load when
the wind speed at deck level exceeds 36 m/s.
As per IRC 6 : 2014 , 33% increse in permissible stress is allowed for wind load and its
combinations with other loads.
Results :
Sections provided are satisfactory for all load combinations considered.
