LL for EUDL Shear (For Full Span) = 219 for 13.6 m span
CDA = 1.56 for 13.6 m span
LL EUDL Shear+CDA (For half Span) = 170.8 t

Earth Pressure Calculation Ref: Cl 5.7.1 of IRS Fpundation Code
γsoil_sat = 2.0 t/m3 Weep holes are provided above HFL, hence pore water pressure is takenfor below HFL
P_EP = 329.08 t
Pcosd = 242.37 t Acting at height = 6.30 m Above Fdn bottom level
PSind = 222.60 t ML = 902.4 tm
Passive pressure at botom of Fdn mat (t/m2)= 61.5 P_EP_Pass= 292.05 t Acting from Mat bot. @ = 0.67 m

For abutment,
Width of abutment = 9.45 m
Height of abutment = 14.40 m
A1 = 136.10 m2
Cf = 2.00
So, FT on pier = 400130.8 N

Summary of Geotech Loads at Bottom of Foundation for stability check
Conclusion:
1) The Foundation is stable for 32.5t Loading and the Bearing pressure is also within limit.
2) There is tension in substructure, the magnitude of tensile stress is 0.2 Mpa only.
3) Previously, the substructure was strengthen with M35 concrete. The fctm value for M35 is 2.8 Mpa. Hence, there is ample margin in the structure
as far as tensile capacity is concern.
Recommendations:
1) After analysing the substructure & foundation, from the available data, the bridge looks safe for load upgradation. Actual physical condition of the
bridge foundation & substructure has NOT been studied in this exercise. The competent authority should take final decision regarding allowing higher
load on this bridge after carefully studying the actual physical condition and tallying the dimensions of substructure at site.
2) EPOXY grouting, of approved quality, for a height of 3.0m from bottom of abutment wall is recommended.
