 Introduction :-
 A bridge is a structure made for carrying
road traffic or other moving loads in order to
pass through an obstacle.
Obstacles may be rivers,valley,sea channels
and other structures such as bridge itself.

BRIDGE TYPE
BOX GIRDER BRIDGE

Shape : hollow box

[rectangular/ trapezoidal

Advantages :-
1. maintenance is easier
2. high structural efficiency
3. greater strength per unit
area of concrete
4. reduced slab thickness and
self weight of bridge

Componant of box girder
bridge

A. Retaining wall

> rigid wall used for

supporting soil laterally
> retain soil
> resist lateral earth
pressure

STRUCTURE PORTION
This are divide in three parts
1. FOUNDATION
2. SUB STRUCTURE
3. SUPER STRUCTURE

6
1. Pile foundation

> size : 1m diameter

> shape : circular
> depth : 20 meter

> used to support the

structure
> formed by long cylinder of a
strong material such as
concrete that is pushed in
ground by piling machine
> spread the structural load
into the ground 7
2. Sub-structure
1. Pier
2. Pier cap
3. Pedestral
4. Bearing pad

> vertical load bearing

member
> intermediate support for
adjacent end of two bridge
span
> load transfer to
foundation
> supporting element of
super structure 8
3. Super structure
a. Soffit
b. Web
c. Deck slab
d. Bearing coat

> act as roadway in

the support of vehicle
> bridge surface

MACHINRY USED IN
CONSTRUCTION

1. Vibrating roller

>Produce vibration
>used to compact
soil, gravel, concrete
etc.

10
2. JCB ( BACK HOE)
Excavation work is done by
back hoe
Like :- cutting , filling etc.

11
2. Grader
• A grader, also commonly referred to as a road grader
or a motor grader, is a construction machine with a
long blade used to create a flat surface during the
grading process.

12
3. Water Tanker
• To supply water to the road site and also used
for the setting of the wetmix.

13
4. TRANSIT MIXTURE :-
> mix the concrete regularly
> provide concrete mixture transportation facility

14
Safety:-
Wear appropriate personal equipment:-
1. Head protection:-
Hard hats protect against impact from fixed and
falling object.

15
2.Foot protection:-
Steel toed boots will prevent toes from being
crushed due to falling objects.
