1.3 Scope of Work . The design works in the Bridge Section involve the preparation of design calculations, presentation ahd checking of working drawings, preparation of specification and bill of quantities. The time taken to fully complete a project will depend on the availability of the necessary imformation, plans, etc. forwarded to this section. The procedure in carrying out A. design project is shown in the flow chart of the Bridge . Design Section (Appendix I).

STANDARD JKR PRACTICES IN BRIDGE DESIGN 1. INTRODUCTION 1.l Organisation Objective To plan and improve the development of the infrastructure and public services in the transportation system such as bridges, fly overs & culverts for roads so that they will be safe, of high quality and economical so as to fulfill the country's social and economic development. 1.2 Function 1. To plan and design new structures or suggest remedial works for existing structures of river,bridges/flyovers/ foot bridges/culverts for federal, state and regional scheme roads. 2. To co-ordinate the design activities of bridge projects for federal roads designed by the Consulting Engineers. Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

2.

Standard Design Practices: 2.1 Types of Bridges The types of bridges designed by the Section are road bridges over high ways, railway line, river and some times pedestrian bridges. All bridges designed are of reinforced and pre stressed concrete based on the length of the standard beams available in the Section. See (Appendix II) Attempts are now underway to.design continuous box girder bridges.

2.2 Design Codes The design of concrete bridges in the section has been based on British Standards such as the BS 153 Part 3A (loading), CP '114 (reinforced concrete) and CP 115 (prestressed concrete). In addition, technical memoranda pub lished by the British Department of Transport are also used. These memoranda. are essential reference material because firstly, they lay down principles of design for bridges based on their distinct features as compared to other structures and secondly, they keep abreast of current design recommendation based on research. The code of practice on Limit State Design (CP 110) is not applicable to design of bridges because it is not compatible to the loading requirements of BS 153 Part 3A. A new bridge design code incorporating the Limit State Design and various technical memoranda embodied in BS 5400 has been available since 1978. However, controversial parts of the code are still under review in Britain and not yet implemented in full. A list of design codes related to the design of bridges as practised by this section is shown in Appendix III. 11 It is a practice in the section that all road bridges are designed to HA loading and checked for 45 units of HB loading guided along the centre line of the carriageway. The procedure of computing the designed live loads and dead loads is dealt with in the chapter on loading. For a skew angle of less than 200, the beams can be used and if the skew angle is greater than 200, the beams should be analysed using the GRIDP/STRU analysis computer programme that is available in the computer section.

3. Design Procedure: 3.1 Proforma With reference to the flow chart in the implementation of the bridge designs, the proforma is very important to the designer to decide the arrangement of the bridge for the preparation of a sketch proposal .When there is a request to design a bridge from other sections, the proforma form will be sent to the particular section to fill in their requirements e.g. location, t9pe of road, services and longitudinal cross section of the river at a distance of 100 ft. upstream and 100 ft. downstream if it is over a river. Roads are classified by their JKR standard types (Appendix IV) The selection of the type of parapet for a bridge is of fundamental importance to its appearance.It is a practice in the section, to have either a solid concrete parapet or a steel railing (Appendix VI). Each can have visual merits depending on the general configuration of the bridge structure. In the case of a bridge over a highway, it would be appropriate to have.a steel railing so that the bridge deck will appear slender. For remote areas, since maintenance is difficult, the use of concrete parapet is preferable. 4.2 Services The service that are usually required by the client.to be placed on the bridge structure are watermains, telephone and electrical ducts. Brackets for the water main are provided in the form of 'J' or 'L' shape as in Appendix VI. The telephone and electrical ducts are usually placed in the concrete kerb and if there are more ducts, they are hung by the side of the beam.

5. Standard Prestressed Beams As mentioned earlier the arrangements of the bridge are based on the available standard pretressed beams as shown in Appendix II. These comprise of posttensioned I beams and pre-tensioned inverted T beams. The choice between these two types of prestressed beams depends on the span and locality of the project. Pre-tensioned beams have the advantage of being cast in the factory under good quality control. But they can only be in short length probably not more than 20 m because of the difficulty in transporting them to the work site. Post-tensioned I-beams can span greater lengths and are best used when the bridge site is not easily accessible or remote. Casting and prestressing on site will solve the problem of transportation of the finished beams. 6. References

NOTES ON HYDROLOGICAL CALCULATIONS FOW- BRIDGE DESIGN

important catchment area characteristic in comparing f18od magnitudes.

1. INTRODUCTION

Main channel slope can be determined by simple measurement from topographic maps. For non-uniform slope, 'weighted mean slope' can be used though it can be argued that in the preparation of H.P. No. 5 the 'rough' slope had been used~so it would be more appropriate to use the 'rough' slope in the calculation.

In the design of a hydraulic structure, hydrological calculation is necessary to determine the rate of flow or discharge that the hydraulic structure will be required to accomodate.

.

The design discharge is a 'hydraulic load' analogous to the structural load in a structural design.

2.3 LAND USE

In a bridge design, we need to determine the design flood discharge for a certain Return Period so we can propose a bridge with the deck level well above the flood level.

The effect of urbanization and land development on peak flow depend upon the percent of the area made impervious and the changes made in the drainage pattern through the installation of storm sewers and modification of surface channels:

Besides this, we have to calculate the flood velocity to determine if the river bed is susceptible to scouring. 2. FACTORS AFFECTING FLOOD RUNOFF

DID HP No.5 has recommended as a general guide, factors to allow for varying amounts of change from undeveloped vegetation to agricultural crop. (Table 3)

2.1 SIZE

2.4 SOIL TYPE & SURFACE INFILTRATION

The size of a catchment area has an important bearing on the response of the catchment to rainfall, and consequently on the methods used to predict flood runoff.

The type of soil and its surface infiltration capacity affect the amount of runoff in the catchment area. These factors are taken into consideration by the Runoff Coefficient (C).

Topographic maps are valuable aids in obtaining the size of -cafchrnent areas.

2.5 STORAGE

In the Rational method (HP No.5) the size of catchment area is limited to 0.5 - 40 sq. miles. Return Period is the average interval of time (in years) between the years that contain an event, greater than or equal to the one under consideration. It is a statistical measure of the probability of occurence of a.flood under consideration. 2.2 SLOPE Many investigations have found that next to catchment area size, some index representing the slope of the catchment area is a very Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Storage within a catchment area may be detention storage, which is the rainfall lost in filling small depressions in the ground surface; storage in transit in overland channel flow, or storage in ponds, lakes or swamps. Storage may also occur in flood control structures like reservoirs. The effect of storage on peak flows can be quite large. However, this effect has not been taken into account in DID HP. No. 5, such that catchment areas where storage effect is expected to be serve as in the case of reservoirs, DID HP No.5 should not be used. Page 21

Helpful data can then be obtained from the controlling public agencies. For urban drainage modified rational method can be used in which storage coefficient.(Cs) shall be multiplied by basic Rational Method formula Q = CSCiA Where Cs =

2 tc __________ 2tc + td

and tc is the time of concentration td is the time of flow in the drain but, C is the composite runoff coefficient and shall be determined as follows C = A1 C1 + A2 C2......An Cn _______________________ ' A Al, A2 etc. are n areas, each of relatively uniform land use or Furface character, comprising the total area A. And C1, C2 etc. are the corresponding runoff coefficients obtained from table below. 2.6 RAINFALL The total amount of rainfall is most important in producing peak flows from large areas, while the intensity of rainfall is . most important in producing peak flows from small areas. Catchment area characteristics and antecedent conditions have a major effect on the proportion of rainfall which becomes runoff.

designer are: (a) Photographs of structures during flood (b) Maximum flood level (c) Distribution of flow and approximate velocities in different sections of the stream (d) Duration of flood (e) Magnitude of flood (f) Scour, erosion & sediment deposits (g) Damage to structures & adjacent property These information may be obtained from the local residents and.the related local public agencies like the D.I.D. 4. STATISTICAL METHODS IN THE ESTIMATION OF FLOOD MAGNITUDES Where actual records of runoff from historical floods extending over long periods are available, such records may be analysed to furnish the basic design data. Unfortunately, in the majority of cases adequate runoff records are not available and estimated of storm runoff by statistical method has to be used. 3 methods have been established by the DID, Malaysia: (a) Rational Method (Hp No.5) (b) Unit Hydrograph Method (Hp No.11) (c) Regional Flood Frequency Method (Hp No.4)

3. BLOOD HISTORY HISTORICAL FLOODS The history of past floods and their effect on existing structures are useful in making flood hazard evaluation studies, including needed information for sizing our structures. Records of the past floods that are useful to a Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

N.B. Minimum Tc recommended in HP No. 5 is 30 minutes. 5.1.3 The maximum rate of runoff from a specific rainfall intensity whose duration is equal to or greater than TC is directly proportional to the rainfall intensity. Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

5.1.4 The frequency of occurence of the peak discharge is the same as that of the sample intensity from which it was calculated. 5.1.5 The coefficient of runoff C remains constant for all storms on a given watershed. (Catchment area) 5.2 ANALYSIS OF POINT RAINFALL Point rainfall is the rainfall records taken at a single gauging station. The DID Malaysia had collected rainfall records for the peninsular and produced isopleths after statistical analysis These isopleths can be made use of to calculate the storm intensity for various return period and duration.

7. Regional Flood Frequency Method (Hp No.4) A total of 11 regions (F1 to F11) have been defined in Peninsular Malaysia, within which reasonably consistent regional flood frequency relationship have been established. Thes regions are shown on plate 1, together with location of the gauging stations used in analysis. location of the gauging stations used in It has not been possible to provide rational flood frequency coverage for the whole of Peninsular Malaysia. This is especially so for the areas between the coastline and the foothills of the central and western mountain range. On such areas data in respects of flood peaks are very difficult to obtain because of large flood plain storage and tidal effects. 7.1 Use of Procedure This procedure may be used for estimating the flood frequency distribution within any of the regions shown on Plate 1. There are two situations, for which different methods are used-to make the flood estimate: Case 1 : Stations with sufficient data to define the mean annual flood Case 2 : Stations with zero or very little streamflow data. ' Example of Case 1 Station No. 4442 Station Name : Sg. Langat at Kajang Catchment Area : 148 sq. miles (from Plate 1) Flood frequency Region: F4 Mean Annual flood: 4503 cusecs (From Appendix A) From Figure 14, using the region F4 flood frequency line, prepare Table 6 shown on page 47.

Example of Case 2 Station: Unnamed point on Sg. Seminyih Flood Frequency Region: F4 (from Plate 1) Catchment area: 148 sq. miles (NB. same as for 4442) . Mean annual flood (from Figure 16): 3600 cusecs From Figure 14, using the region F4 flood frequency line, prepare Table 7 shown below: Example of Case 3 (67% confidence limit) Take the same station as for case 1 'Q20 = 6260 ) Q2 = 4360 ) From Fig.18 R = 1900 ) R = 1900 = 425 V n f 20 Standard error of the estimate of Q2 = Q5 = Q10 Q20 Q25 Q50

0.54 x 425 = 0.86 x 425 = = 1.23 x 425 = = 1.73 x 425 = 0.43 x 1900 = 0.43 x 1900

230 366 522 = 736 = 820 = 820

Control curves are plotted on the estimated flood frequency curve for case 1 shown on Fig.18. The control curves indicate that twothirds of the (say) Q25 estimate made from data samples of length 20 yrs. would lie in the range 6439 t 820,cusecs, i.e. from 5619 to 7259 cusecs. 7.3 Limitation 1.

10. PRESENTATION OF SKETCH PROPOSAL

Maximum Permissible velocity or nonerrodible velocity is the greatest mean velocity that will not cause erosion of the channel body (Table 7). Vm is not to exceed this velocity.

The discharge capacity should be able to accomodate the peak discharge Q100. If Qc < . Q100 Repeat steps 2-8 by a ew trial flood level until Qc is slightly higher than Q 100 ,

At this juncture, we could have arrived at:-' 10.1 Proposed deck level (Having taken into account the depth off standard beams to be used; thickness of deck slab; premix; bearing and amount~of-freeboard) It is JKR practice to allow for a free board of 0.3-1.0m to cater for the debris brought along by the flood water. 10.2 Number of-spans-required-and the length of.each span. 10.3 .Whether .or not-bed protection is required. with these infomation. we should be able to put up a . sketch proposal. This sketch proposal is to be submitted to the client and the D.I.D for approval.

* If the mean velocity is ' her than the maximum permissible velocity this.can be rediced by using a longer span bridge. Should this turnout to uneconomical, bed protection should s be provided. 9 Computation of Back Water Curve When the crossing at the bridge Bite is constricted dire to the construction of a new bridgb, back water will be resulted causing a rise in water level above the calculated water level. This rise in water level (if it occurs) has to be taken into account in considering the deck level of the proposed bridge. This computation may not be necessary if there is no constriction causes by the new bridge. Steps for. such computation are available in the DID manual for 'Urban drainage design standard and procedures for Peninsular Malaysia'. Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

CHAPTER BRIDGE LOADING (A)

(B)

(ii) Live Loads (HA Loading and HB Loading)

Unlike in the design of Buildings where there is a complete and comprehensive code of practise, no such code for the design of concrete Bridges,ekist until recently. The recently published BS5400, for the design and construction of concrete Bridges, is yet to be adopted by the Bridge Unit Until such time, the design of bridges will be in accordance with BS 153: Part 3A (Loads) : 1973 and the C.P.114 (The elastic analysis method). Amendments and up-dating of the various a clauses in the BS 153 are carried out by the Ministry of transport. (United Kingdom) from time to time and are published in the Technical Memorandum. As such, when referring to the BS 153 for loading, the current Technical Memorandum must also be refered to in conjuction with-the BS153.

The Standard normal highway loading is called HA loading and the standard abnormal highway loading, the HB loading. Type HA loading comprises a uniform distributed load combined with a line load across the width of each traffic lane. This loading is considered to be adequate to represent the the effects of three vehicles, each 220 KN in weight, closely spaced, in each of two carriageway lanes followed by 100 KN and 50 KN vehicles. It should be noted here that Type HA Loading includes a 25% allowances for impact.

Loads Acting an a Bridge Superstructure

Type HB loading is usually expressed in Units per axle. The full type HB Loading (180 tonnes) is commonly expressed as 45 units (1 unit - IOKN).or part of it, 371 units (150 tonnes) or 30 units (120 tonnes).

The following Loads are to be taken into consideration when designing a bridge. They are:

Type.HB loading caters for the safe passage of an abnormally heavy vehicle of up to 180 tonnes gross laden weight with a configuration of wheels and axle as shown:

(i) Dead Load Dead Loads consist of structural dead Loads and superimposed dead Loads. Structural dead Loads are Loads due to the self-weight of the various structural components of the bridge. It should be noted here that a preliminary estimation of the sizes of the various structural components is necessary at this stage. The superimposed dead load consist of items like road surfacing road furniture, weight of services (water mains, Telecoms cables, electric cables ...... etc). -

(iii) Loads due to centrifugal force On elevated roadway structures and bridges carrying highways that have sharp horizontal curvature, centrifugal force must be taken into account. This involves making assumptions about the speed and weight of vehicles, together with the intervals between them where the loaded length allows several vehicles in line. A judgement may be made on the intervals between vehicles, based on the information about stopping distances given in the highway code. The Technical Memorandum BE 1/77 specifies design forces to cover these conditions in anticipition of the requirements of BS 5400. (iv) Tractive/Braking Loads

(v)

stability problems will inevitably tend to be more sensitive-to wind loading. (vi) Load due to shrinkagey temperature.& creep These are horizontal loads due to forces generated in the beams/slab caused by shrinkage, temperature changes and creep in the concrete. (vii) Seismic Loads These are loads due to earthquakes. For Bridges designed in this country no seismic force are taken into consideration. The only exception to this, is the Penang Bridge where seismic Loads are considered. Procedure for determination of loads on Bridge Superstructure

The longitudinal force on a bridge structure result from the traction or braking of vehicles at the level of the carriageway surface. It is applied horizontally to the carriageway surface.

STEP 1 Determine the dead loads & superimpose dead loads of all structural components.

Wind Loads Wind forces though rarely significant in small-span and medium-span bridgeworks, can be critical in bridges like the suspension type where the span is large. Generally any structure which is sensitive to

STEP VI Determine loads due to wind forces ,

STEP II Width and number of traffic (design) lanes

Guide-Lines for Determination of Loads on Bridge Superstructure

Very frequently, views differ on what should be the carriageway width for live loads (HA & HB) considerations on a bridge and consequently, the number of traffic (design) lanes. It is the writerts opinion that the carriageway width of a bridge should be the clear distance between raised kerbs. However the more recent standards issued by the Road prdt\ch does not encourage the use of Kerbs but instead adopts 'Road Edge Stripping' to demarcate the traffic lane from the cycle/ pedestrian lane. In such cases, the carriageway width should include the cycle/pedestrian lanes. The justification for the inclusion being, there is a very likely possibility of an errant vehicle going onto the cycle/pedestrian lane, in the absence of road kerbs. (see fig. 1 and fig. 2).

Within the normal scope of design work carried out by the Bridge Section, the loads on a Bridge superstructure normally considered are: (i) Dead Loads (ii) Live Loads (iii) Tractive/Braking Loads (Longitudinal load) (iv) Wind Loads (v) Loads due to shrinkage, temperature & creep (S.T.C) The loads normally not taken into consideration are loads due to centrifugal force (except for sharp horizontal curvature) and even more infrequently, seismic loads. However, in special circumstances where a bridge is designed to be submerged, then the lateral horizontal force due to the water current and the bouyant force of the water need to be calculated and taken into consideration. STEP I Dead Loads The calculations for the dead loads of a bridge superstructure is quite straightforward. However a preliminary estimation of the sizes of the various structural components-, thickness of the deck slab, premix surfacing ... etc is required. This can be a problem for those designers attempting bridge design for the first time. The importance of an orderly and systematic approach to the calculations of dead loads cannot be overemphasized. Any haphazard approach may result in a structural component or item inadvertently left out. A good guide to Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

In the determination of Live Loads, two important items need to be obtained initially. (i) The number of traffic (design) lanes (ii) The width of each traffic (design) lanes There are two cases of carriageway width to consider: (i) Bridge with carriageway width of 4.60 m or more (ii)Bridge with carriageway width of less than 4.60 m In case (i) the number of traffic (design) lanes is obtained by dividing the carriageway width by 3.80 m and rounding up to the next whole number.

BUKU PANDUAN REKABENTUK JAMBATAN

Example Assume carriageway width = 7.5 m From Table in B.S. 153: Part 3A:1972 (pg. 5) Number of traffic lanes = 3 width per lane = 7.5 = 2.5 m 3 In case (ii) the number of traffic (design) lanes is obtained by dividing the carriageway width by 3.0 m. This implies that there will be fractional lane and the loading on the fractional lane will be proportional to the full lane. Example Assume carriage width = 4.20m , Number of lanes

= 4.2 lanes 3

Width per lane

= 4.2 = 3.0 m. 1.4

At this juncture, it is appropriate to give some clarification on the concept of traffic lanes. Rightfully, when designing, the lanes referred to should be called Design Lanes rather than traffic lanes so as.to distinguish it from traffic lanes in the context of Road design. From the above example Of carriageway width of 4.20m, it is clear why the distinction between the two must be made. In that example we have the number of lanes (for Loading Consideration) = 1.4 lanes, which would not be a possible number in Road Design. It would, in Road design, be a one lane or two lane roadway. This clearly demonstrates that the number of traffic (design) lanes of a bridge need not necessary be equal to the number of traffic lanes of a roadway. STEP III Live Loads HA & HB HA Loads When considering HA (normal live load)

and (ii) HA-KEL load (See fig. 3) and (iii) HAWheel loads. This implies that the HA-UDL load is uniformly distributed bothways equally i.e. longtudinally and across the width of the design (traffic) lane. The HA-KEL load is a line load acting across the width of the design (traffic) l6e. An important point to note here is that the HA-KEL load is a movabl load (along the span). The HA-KEL load must be placed in such a position so as to cause worst effects. For example, in the design of abutment or pier the HA-KEL must be positioned over the abutment or pier. In beam design however, the HA-KEL must be positioned mid-span. To wheel loads each 112KN force in line transversely to the direction of traffic flow spaced at 0.90m centres and having a contact area of 375 mm x 75 mm, the smaller dimension being in the direction of travel, to be used in the following cases: (a) Where the member supports a small area of roadway such that it may be called on to carry the weight of one or two wheels, and where the proportion of distributed load and knife edge load which would be allocated to it is small and on cantilever projections not exceeding 1.80m. (b) Where deck slabs are designed as supported on all four sides and the distance between supports in one directions is less than twice the distance in the other direction. The values for HA-udl (spanwise) and HAKEL (across the width of lane) are obtained from Table 1 and Fig. 1 of B.S. 153. However the values obtained need to be reduced by the factor 3 for lanes less than 3.Om width for HAUDL values (W= width of design lane) and for HA-KEL the values are 40KN/m (across widths/lane), for lane width less than 3.Om and 120 KN per lane for,lane width greater than 3.0m. .

Bridge with two or less design lanes shall be loaded with the full HA-UDL and HA-KEL loads. However for every additional design lane above two lanes, it shall be loaded with one-third (1/3) the full intensify. (see Fig.4). The relevant clause pertaining to this rule is clause 4.1.3. Of the B.S. 153. The following examples will illustrate more clearly the computations for HA-UDL and HAKEL loads. Case (i) Design (traffic) lane width 3.0m. or less Assume: (a) Design' (traffic) lane width = 2.70m(w) (b) Number of Design (traffic) lanes = 3 (c) Span of Bridge = 31.O m From Table 1 and Fig.1 of B.S. 153, HA-UDL = 28.5 KN/m (spanwise, per lane) HA-UDL (Reduced) = 28.5 x 2.70 = 25.65 KN/m (per lane) 3 HA-KEL (Fig.1) = 40 ICN/m (across width of lane) HA-UDL.(for first two lanes) = 25.65 x 31.0 x2 = 1590.3 KN HA-UDL (for third lane) = 25.65 x 31.0 x 1 x 1/3 = 265.05 KN Total HA-UDL = 1590.3 + 265.05 = 1855.35 KN HA-KEL (for first two lanes) = 40 x 2.70 x2 = 216 KN HA-KEL (for third lane) = 40 x 2.7 x 1 x x 1/3 = 36 KN Total HA-KEL = 216 + 36 = 252 KN Case (ii) Design (traffic) lane width greater than 3.Om assume:

(b) Number of Design (traffic) lanes (c) Span of Bridge = 31.0m.

From Table 1 and Fig. Y of B.S. 153, HA-UDL = 28.5 KN/m (per lane) - HA-KEL (Fig.1) = 120 KN per lane. HA-UDL (for first two lanes) = 28.5 x 31.0 x 2. = 1767.0 KN HA-UDL (for third lane) = 7R-5 x31.0 x 1/3 = 294.5 KN Total HA-UDL = 1767 + 294.5 = 2061.5 KN HA-KEL (f6r first two lanes) = 120 x 2 = 240 KN HA-KEL (for third lane) = 120 x 1 x 1/3 = 40 KN Total HA-KEL = 240 + 40 = 280 KN HB Load The configuration of axles and wheels of a HB vehicle is as shown in Fig. 5. The load per axle is 450 KN and the total weight of the HB vehicle is 1800 KN. Very often the full weight of the HB load is also expressed as units per axle. The full HB load is referred to as 45 units . (1 unit = 10 KN) or part of it, say, 37J units HB. (375 KN/axle). Like the HA-KEL, the HB load is a movable load. For the design of abutment/pier or beams, the vehicle must be placed in such a position so as to cause the most adverse effects. (See Fig.6). In Bridges designed (checked) for HB loads, the Live Loads to be adopted for design will be either loads due to HA (Normal) or HB (abnormal) loads, depending whichever is greater. In Bridges designed (checked) for HB loads, the Live Loads to be adopted for design will be either loads due to HA (Normal) or HB (abnormal) loads, depending whichever is greater.

STEP IV Determination of Tractive/Braking Load This is horizontal force acting longitudinally on a bridge deck generated by sudden braking or traction of vehicles (see Fig.7) on the bridge. It is even more severe if the vehicles are heavy. The determination of this Tractive load is simple enough and the relevant clause in clause 10 of the B.S. 153. However the present JKR Practice predetermines a maximum value of 253 KN for tractive load for both HA and HB (45 units) Loadings. This is a slight departure from the B.S. 153 where the maximum load is 450 KN. The reason for this adoption of a smaller load is, in my opinion,. due to the present system of control and approval of passage of HB- Class of vehicles over a public road bridge. Any heavier than normal load intending to use any bridge has got to seek prior approval of JKR authorities. A condition normally imposed will be that the abnormally heavier vehicle to travel along the bridge centre-line at a very slow speed. No other vehicles will be permitted to use the bridge during this time. In such circumstances, the force due to sudden braking and traction is reduced to a minimum or none at all. Hence the adoption of a smaller load is justified. STEP V Loads due to movement of beam caused by temperature, shrinkage and creep They are horizontal forces acting longtudinally on a bridge generated by movement of beam caused by temperature, shrinkage and creep. The temperature and shrinkage coefficients adopted may be assumed to be universal values but the creep coefficients is dependent on concrete cube strength and cube strength at transfer (for prestressed beams). How much of shortening caused by shrinkage and creep that has occured at the time of casting of the beams and prestressing, is more Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

speculative than anything else. It is not uncommon to see designer's assuming a variety of figures. In the Bridge sectin we normally assume two-thirds (2/3) shrinkage and half (1) creep has(already occurred at the time of placing of beams. (See Fig.8). Therefore the actual beam movement, = Temperature shortening + shrinkage + creep 3 2 Knowing the actual beam movement, Plan area of elastomer and it's-shear Modulus, (for that particular 'Hardnesl';of elastomer) the horizontal force due-to shrinkage, Temperature and Creep, (commonly abbreviated to S.T.C.) can be determined. (See Fig.9). Shrinkage and creep can act in.only one 'direction but temperature can act in ;either direction, longitudinally. STEP VI Loads due to Wind Forces Generally, structures that possessed stability problems, like the suspension bridges, will be sensitive to wind loads. For the types of bridges designed in this section, wind loads are not critical but nevertheless they have to be taken into consideration of design purposes. Only the longtudinally component of the lateral wind force is taken into consideration. The lateral horizontal'wind force is normally omitteddue to the fact the ratio of the total vertical forces to the lateral horizontal forces is so large that stability of the structure can be provided by the sheer weight (Live Dead Load) of the structure itself. In the calculations for wind forces the area of superstructure (AW/s) normal to the direction of the wind in the windward side will be required. This AW/s will normally be made up of the height of the beam thickness of deck slab and the edge kerb, in the case of the bridge is of the metal. railings type or plus concrete parapet height if it is of the concrete parapet type.

The height of the live load is taken as 2.50m from the top surface of the deck and shall be assumed to occupy the span of the bridge. Thus, the area of live load (AL.L.) normal to the direction of the wind is = 2.50 x span of bridge. Case should be taken to ensure that scree,ing effect of the concrete parapet on the live load is taken into conside-ation. Hence the AL.L. always refer to the net exposed area of live load. In the case where the concrete parapet is used, then AL.L,= (2.50-0.80) x span of bridge. (Assuming concrete parapet height approx. = 0.80m).

Another factor just simply referred to as 'n' in the B.S. 153, (perhaps should be termed as the leeward side factor) is simply defined as the ratio of the distance between the windward girders (beams) to the leeward girders (Beams) to the height of the windward girder. This factor, n/16 , is always less than unity and is applied at the leeward side when determining wind forces on it. The following shows the derivation of the formulas shown i/n Fig. 10. A. Unloaded Case From B.S. 153, Wind Pressure = 1.4 KN/m2 on windward side, The lateral wind force = 1.4 x Aw/s on leeward side the lateral wind force = 1.4 x Aw/s x n 16 Since the two forces act in the same direction, the total lateral wind force = 1.4 x Aw/s x n/16 + 1.4 x Aw/s = 1.4 x Aw/s (1 + n/16) The longtudinal wind Force is simply taken as =1/4 of Lateral Wind Force. B. Loaded Case From B.S. 153, Wind Pressure = 0.7 KN/m2 . Here however, the area providing resistance to the wind will be (Aw/s + ALL ). As before; The total lateral Wind Force = 0.7 (Aw/s + AL.L) (1 + n/16). In this case, the B.S. 153 states that the longtudinal wind force should be taken as a.quarter of the lateral wind force on Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

BS 153.: Part 3A: 1972 British Standard Specification for Steel girder bridges Part 3A. Loads 1. Scope of BS 153 . This specification is primarily intended to apply to the superstructure of simply supported steel bridges of spans up to 100 m. Where appropriate, the requirements of the specification may be adopted for larger spans or other types of steel bridges, but care should be taken, in these circumstances to make whatever amendments are necessary for fixity at the supports, continuity and other indeterminate or special conditions, such as, for instance, may apply to opening bridges.

load initially assumed shall be checked after the design is made and the design shall be revised as found necessary. In determining the dead load, actual ascertained unit weights shall be used, but if these are not available unit weights as given in 13S 648 may be used, as appropriate. 4. Live load . The live load is the weight of traffic and shall be of the type and magnitude specified. The following standard loadings shall be adopted where appropriate: 4.1 Standard highway loading 4.1.1 Loading. Standard highway loadings are given in Appendix A.

Subject to the provisions of other clauses, all forces shall be considered as applied and all loaded lengths chosen in such a way that the most adverse effect is caused on the member under consideration.

These are: Type HA. Equivalent lane loading which is the normal design loading for Great Britain but may be varied in intensity where conditions are other than, those prevailing in Great Britain. Type HB. Abnormal unit loading. To be used when specified by the appropriate authority. In Great Britain 45 units shall be taken for bridges carrying the heaviest class of load This is an idealized load which allows for the weight of tractors accompanying trailers. 4.1.2

4.1.3 Application of standardloading on a single superstructure Type HA loading Type HA loading shall be taken. to occupy one carriageway lane and to be uniformly distributed over the full width of the lane. Two lanes shall always be considered as occupied by full Type HA loading, while all other lanes shall be considered as occupied by one-third the full lane loading, except where other wise specified by the appropriate authority. Type HB loading. One lane shall be loaded with Type HB loading only. Where one carriageway only is carried on a superstructure, all other lanes shall be considered as occupied by one-third of the full lane loading, except where otherwise specified by the appropriate authority. Where dual carriageways are carried on one single superstructure two lanes on the carriageway not carrying HB loading shall be taken as occupied with full HA loading.

case may be, and o the condition of loading for which the member being considered is designed.

BS 153: Part 3A: 1972 This loading is based on the Bridge Stress Committee's report of 1928, a brief pricis of which is given in Appendix D. It is suitable for railways in Great Britain and abroad with a gauge 4 ft 81 in (1.432 m) and over and with locomotive and track characteristics similar to those obtaining on the main railways in Great Britain. 4.3 Standard footway loading . The live load due to pedestrian traffic shall be treated as uniformly distributed over the footway. For loaded lengths up to and including 23.0 m it shall normally be taken as 4 kN/m' and for lengths over 23.0 m as the standard uniformly distributed loads given in Fig. 1 multiplied by a reduction factor of 4.0/31.5. Where crowd loading is likely the live load for the design of members exclusively supporting or forming the footway shall be taken as 5 kN/m'. In the case of highway bridges each part of the footway shall be capable of carrying a wheel load of 40 M, which shall be deemed to include impact, distributed over a contact area 300 mm in diameter; the working stresses shall be increased by 25 % to meet this provision. This provision need not be made where vehicles cannot mount the footway. 5.

(2)

No addition for impact shall be made to the live load due to pedestrian or equivalent light traffic. 6.

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Impact effect on railway bridges A propriate additions shall be made to the live load specified in 4 for impact effects caused by the hammer blow of locomotives, rail joints, and track and wheel irregularities. In determining these additions due consideration shall be given by the engineer to the standard and maintenance of track and roiling stock, the types and characteristics of locomotives, and the. type and / characteristics. of the bridge. Type RB loading, which is suitable for the main line railways of Great Britain and other railways having similar locomotive and track characteristics, already includes an allowance for impact and co further additions shall be made. For all other loadings, including type RA, the additions for impact shall be specified by the engineer. For his guidance three methods of calculating the additions, those of Foxlee and Greet, the Government of India and the American Railway Engineering Association, are described in detail in Appendix C.

Impact effect on highway bridges Where Types HA ant"HB loadings given in Appendix A are not adopted, the allowance for impact on highway bridges shall be to en as follows: (1) An impact allowance of 25 % shall be added to the axle-load, or (where there is more than one lane of traffic) the pair of adjacent wheel loads, which produces the greatest bending moment or shear, as the

Where the loaded length required to produce the maximum stress in any member exceeds 30.0 m impact shall be ignored.

BS 153: Part 3A: 1972 part of the live loading from one rail to the other, the total load on the track remaining unaltered. The transfer shall be taken to increase the load on the rail which most adversely affects the member under consideration. The proportion QL of live load on one rail so transferred shall be calculated from the expression. 160k n QL = --------I +100 where k is a coefficient depending on the type of spring suspension, the weight and height of the rolling stock, and the type of construction and lateral rigidity of the bridge structure; n is the number of revolutions per second of the driving wheels of the locomotives (see Fig. 6, Appendix B); 1 is the effective span in feet, as defined in 1.4 of Part 4. NOTE. For conditions corresponding. to those ruling on the railways of Great Britain (4 ft 81/2 in gauge = 1.432 m gauge), and provided the structure is adequately stiffened laterally, k = 1/24 and n = 6 for maximum speed, but with a maximum value of QL of 0.25. For conditions other than those ruling on the railways of Great Britain, and where provision for a greater lurching effect is necessary, it is recommended that the value of the coefficient k be increased but to not more than 1/15 with a maximum value for the factor QL of 0.40. Where a member supports or assists in supporting more than one track, provision for the effect of lurching need only be made in respect of one of the tracks where these are two. or in respect of alternate tracks where there are more than two, the track or tracks selected being those on which the transfer of the load has the greatest effect on the member. Lurching need not be taken into account in the Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

case of an inner main girder assisting in supporting more than one track. No addition for impact shall be made to the lurching effect. 8. Nosing on railway bridges . An allowance shall be made for nosing, and this shall be taken as a single force of 10 tonf, acting horizontally, in either direction, at right angles to the track, at the rail level and at such a paint in the span as to produce the maximum effect in the member under consideration. This value is appropriate to the conditions obtaining on railways in Great Britain. In other cases the amount of force may be amended at the engineer's discretion. Vertical effects shall be disregarded. : On multi-track bridges, a single force as specified above shall be deemed sufficient. 9. Centrifugal force on railway bridges Where the track or tracks are curved, allowance for centrifugal action of the moving loads shall be made in designing the members, all tracks on the structure being considered as occupied. The centrifugal force due to the load per track shall be calculated from the following formula: w v2 C = ----------15R where C = the centrifugal force per lin ear foot considered as a moving load, acting at a height of 6 ft (1.83 m) above the level of the rails, unless otherwise specified by the engineer; w = the equivalent distributed live load, without impact, per linear foot per track; v = the allowable maximum speed of the train in miles per hour, as specified by the Page 76

Longitudinal force on highway bridges The following longitudinal force resulting from the traction or braking of vehicles shall be taken as acting horizontally at the level of the carriageway surface, and having the following values for all widths of bridge. The force shall be applied over an area 3.00 m wide by 9.00 m long, or the length of the bridge, whichever is less, and in that position which will have the worst effect on the member under consideration.

When type RB loading is used, 20 units of type RA loading shall be taken for this purpose. (2) A force due to braking of 10 % of the total load on one track without impact. Where the structure carries two tracks, one up and one down, both tracks shall. be considered as being occupied simultaneously, and the force due to braking shall be applied to one track and, the force (in the same direction) due to traction to the other. Where the structure carries more than two tracks, the longitudinal forces shall be considered as applied to two tracks only, unless otherwise specified by the engineer, the worst case being taken as'regards its effect on any part of the structure. Some relief in the effect of the longitudinal force on the bridge and its supports may be taken into account where the tracks are capable of transmitting part of these forces to resistances outside the bridge structure. No addition for impact shall be made the longitudinal force.

BS 153: Part 3A: 1972 12. Wind pressure effects 12.1 General Where the effect of wind has to be taken into consideration, it shall be treated as a moving load (i.e. taken of such length along the span as to produce the maximum stress in the member under consideration) acting at the centroids of the exposed areas as defined below. The maximum effects from the wind blowing in either lateral direction on the loaded or unloaded structure., shall be taken, having regard to the disposition of the live load. For conditions normally prevailing in Great Britain the wind pressures specified below shall be used, but where owing to the position of the bridge or any special conditions the assumed wind speeds cannot be realized or may be exceeded, the engineer shall at his discretion specify different values. For this purpose the wind pressure shall be assumed to vary as the square of the wind speed. 12.2 For maximum lateral effect 12.2.1 On unloaded structures. A wind pressure of 1.4 kN/m2 corresponding to a wind speed of 40 m/s shall be '. taken as acting horizontally and normal to the sides of the bridge on a total exposed area of the superstructure made up of the following areas as applicable:

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Windward girder, deck end bracing. The net exposed area in normal projected elevation of the windward girder, deck construction, bracing and parapet. Leeward girders. The following fractions (not exceeding unity) of the net exposed area in normal projected elevation of the leeward girder : n /16 when the windward girder is a plate girder n / 16 + 0.5 when the windward girder is a trussed girder where n = ratio of distance, centre to centre between the windward and outermost leeward girder, to the depth of the windward girder. Where there are more than two main girders, only that fraction of the area of the outmost leeward girder as calculated above shall be taken. In cases where a leeward girder projects in elevation beyond the windward girder, the full net exposed area.,of the projection as seen in elevation shall be treated as subject to full wind pressure. 12.2.2 On loaded structures. In arriving at the total effective area exposed to wind on a loaded structure, allowance shall be made for the screening effect, based on projected areas, of the structure on the live load, or of the live load on the structure, or of live loads on each other:

BS 153: Part 3A: 1972 12.2.2.1 Highway and jootway bridges. A wind pressure of 0.7 kN/m2, corresponding to 28 m/s, shall be taken as acting horizontally and normal to the sides of the bridge on the exposed area of the superstructure (calculated as in 12.2.1). and of live load taken as a single vertical plane surface having a continuous height of 22.500 m above the carriageway or.1,25 m above footway and cycle tracks, as applicable. 12.2.2.2 Railway bridges. A wind pres sure of 1.4 kN/m= (30lbf/ft2) corresponding to a wind speed of 40 m/s, shall be taken as acting horizontally and normal to the sides of the bridges on the exposed. area of the superstructure (calculated as in 12.2.1) and of live load taken as a single vertical plane surface having a continuous height of 3.75 m (12 ft) above. the rail. 12.3

For longitudinal effect A longitudinal wind force shall be combined with a corresponding lateral wind force equal to half the total lateral force given in 1.2.2 and the two shall be distributed compatibly. The longitudinal wind forces shall be determined as follows: (1) For plate girder bridges: a quarter of the total lateral wind forces on the super structure in the unloaded condition (see 12.2.1) or a quarter of the total

Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

lateral wind forces on the superstructure and half the total lateral wind forces on the live load,in the loaded condition (see 12.2.2). (2) For trussed girder bridges: half the total lateral wind forces on the superstructure in the unloaded condition (see 12.2.1); or, half the total lateral wind forces on the superstructure and live load, in the loaded condition (see 12.2.2). 12.4 For maximum overturning effect On the bridge and its supports, the following shall be taken into account : (1) In addition to the lateral and longitudinal wind forces specified above, an upward vertical pressure of . 0.24 kN/ml acting over the net exposed area of the bridge in plan. (2) In considering the overturning effect due to wind on live load, the live load shall consist of standard loading or of unloaded wagons or vehicles of the lightest tare, whichever produces the maximum overturning effects. The latter shall be taken as not greater than 12 kN per linear metre of bridge for railway bridges and not greatet than 6 kN per linear metre of bridge for highway bridges. 13. Temperature effect Allowances shall be made for the forces resulting from the following conditions: (1) Any portion of the superstructure being restrained from moving Page 79

For this purpose in Great Britain a minimum of -7 ° C and a maximum between 27 ° C and 49 ° C, depending on the location of the structure, shall be taken. Elsewhere the temperature limits shall be based on local conditions. (2) Any portion of the superstructure being at a temperature different from the rest of the structure, due to the effect of sun and shade. For this purpose the maximum difference of temperature shall be taken as 8 ° C. In determining forces and movements due to change of temperature the coefficient of expansion of steel shall be taken as 1.17 x 10-5 per ° C. 14. Frictional resistance of. expansion bearings For expansion and contraction of the structure due to variations of temperature or to other causes, the forces due to friction on the expansion bearings under dead load only shall be taken into account and the following coefficients of friction shall be used: For roller bearings with 1 or 2 rollers - 0.01 For roller bearings with 3 or more rollers - 0.05 For sliding of steel on hard copper alloy bearing - 0.15 For sliding of steel on cast iron or steel -0.25 15. Forces on parapets 15.1 Footbridge parapets . Consideration shall be given to the strength and stability of parapets. Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

Parapets may be subject to horizontal loads acting at a height of 1.00 m above the level of the footway, ranging from 0.7 kN per metre to 1.4 kN per metre, according to circumstances. The maximum load will only be encountered in extreme cases of crowd loading. The value of the loading shall be taken at the discretion of the engineer'. 15.2 Motorway and other highway bridge parapets Reference should be made to the Ministry of Transport memorandum on the subject. 16. Combination of forces The following combinations of forces shall be considered: (1) The worst combination possible of dead load with live load, impact, lurching and centrifugal force. When a member whose primary function is to resist longitudinal and nosing forces due to live load is under consideration the term live load shall include these forces. (2) The worst combination possible of any or all of the'forces listed under (1).to (11) inclusive in 2. (3) The worst combination possible of forces during erection: . (4) The worst combination possible of any or all of the forces listed in 2, at the discretion of the engineer. 17.

BS 153: Part 3A: 1972 18. Anchorage . The stability of the structure and its parts shall be investigated and weight or anchorage shall be provided so that the least restoring moment, including anchorage, is not less than the sum of: 1.1 x dead load overturning moment, and 1.4 x overturning moments due to applied loads. Account shall be taken of possible variations of dead load for repair or other temporary purposes to ensure stability at all times. This margin of stability ifs so far as stresses are concerned shall be deemed to be covered in respect of.all parts. of the structure which have been designed for their working loads to the permissible stresses in this British Standard. In complying with the requirements of this clause it. is necessary to ascertain that the resulting pressures and shears deemed to be communicated by the bearings to the substructure will not produce failure. 19.

of traffic lane are given in Table I and Fig. 1. (2) One knife edge load uniformly distributed across the width of the traffic lane. The values of this load, which shall be applied in accordance with A.3.I, are given in Fig. 1. (3) Two wheel loads each 112 kN force in line transversely to the direction of traffic flow spaced at 0.90 m centres and having a contact area of 375 mm x 75 mm, the smaller dimension being in the direction of travel, to be used in the following cases: a. Where the member supports a small area of roadway,such that it may be called on to carry the weight of one or two wheels, and where the proportion of distributed load and knife edge load which would be allocated to it is small and on cantilever projections not exceeding 1.80 m. b. Where deck slabs are designed as supported on all four sides and the distance between supports in one direction is less than twice the distance in the other direction. In this respect the edge stiffening of slabs as required by A.3.9 of this appendix shall not be deemed as providing adequate support for this purpose. A.2 Varied intensities of type HA loading

.

Where a different intensity of loading is required, Type HA loading may be varied proportionately, each item of the loading being varied pro rata. When making any reduction it should be borne in mind that an impact allowance of 25 % as specified in A.5.1 has been taken into account in this loading. This allowance is considered adequate for conditions in Great Britain, but may not necessarily be sufficient elsewhere.

Note to Table t and Fig. i Normal loading (Type HA) approximately, represents the effect of three vehicles, each 22 tonne (220 kN) in weight, closely spaced, in each of two carriageway lanes, followed by 10 tonne (I00 kN) and 5 tonne (50 kN) vehicles. Design loads for short span members to allow for possible local concentration of loads, the effect of two 90 kN wheel forces 0.90 m apart have been considered (i.e. approximately two 112 kN wheel forces with 25 % overstress). In general, normal loading is sufficient to cover 30 units of abnormal loading (Type HB) for loaded lengths above 30.0 m and for slabs (but see A.5), and at least 20 units of abnormal loading for beams having spans less than 30.0 m carrying decks with a weight similar to that of an ordinary reinforced concrete slab. Where a bridge is definitely required to carry abnormal loads in excess of 20 units a check should be made. A special case is a narrow bridge or one in which the carriageway is cantilevered beyond the beams, where high stresses car. occur under abnormal loading.

DESIGN OF DECK SLAB 1.0 Introduction. 2.0 Pigeaud’s Method: 2.1 Application of Pigeaud's Method. 3.0 Westergaard+s Method. 3.1 Effect of encastre. 3.2 Application of Westergaard's Method. 1.0 Introduction In addition to the distribution of the load in the main longitudinal beams and the tranverse diaphragm beam, there will also be a local stress distribution in the deck slab. This local stress distribution is due to: A) Dead load of deck slab and surfacing. B) HA Loading. C) HB wheel loads. This stress distribution will, in general, be restricted to. the deck slab but may be superimposed to give the resultant stress distribution in the bridge as a whole. The boundary conditions of the deck slab are complex since the longitudinal and the tranverse beams do not deflect equally. The problem can be simplified by assuming.that the boundaries of the deck slab are simple and undeflecting. A factor is then introduced to take account of,the continuity over the supports. The determination of stress due to uniform loading, i.e dead load and HA load, is quite straight forward and methods described in CP 114 can be employed. For stress due to wheel load, it may be determined by Pigeaud's Method or Westergaard's Method. However, Westergaard's Method is the most commonly used since the conditions in most practical bridge structure suit this method.

of the surfacing. Hence, for HB wheel of dimension 15 in x 3 in. u = 15+2t V = 3+ 2t where t is the surfacing thickness. Ratio of a/b , u/a and v/b are.then calculated. Values of M1, and M2. can then be determined from Pigeaud's Curve, where M.1 and M.2 .are functions of u/a and v/b for various values .of P = a/b equal to 1.0. 0.9 , 0.8 , 0.707 , 0.6 , 0.5 0.4 , 0.3 , 0.2 and 0. The minimum moments are then derived as follows: M= max. moment across direction a = ( M1 + 0.15 M2) P M= max. moment across direction b = ( 0.15 M1 + M 2) P . where P is,the wheel load in lbs and M and M2 in lbs in/in. Pigeaud suggested that for two central load, as shown in figure 2, the value of U and V should be taken as follows.

} for load as in fig.2 (b) }

Application of Pigeaud's Method.

Pigeaud's Method is most useful wh dealing with slab in which the width is less than 1.8 times t e span. To take account of fixity at the boundaries of the slab a factor of 0.8 is normally introduced. Thus the moments are derive for the simply supported slab and multiplied by 0.8 to give the approximate moment for the boundries. Some limitations of Pigeaud's Method are as follows: i)Only central load can be dealt with. ii)When dealing with 2 loads, it is not sufficiently accurate to replace the loads by a single load having an area which is dependant on the spacing. iii) It is not very easy to read accu rately the values of. MI and M2 from Pigeaud's Curve.

3.0 Westergaard's Method The notation adopted by Westergaard is as shown.

Fig.3. Westergaard's Notation. The initial assumption is that the slab extends sufficiently far in the direction + y without being supported. by dia~ragms for it to be considered as an infinite slab Poison's ratio was taken as 0.15.

BRIDGE BEARING, DOWEL BAR AND EXPANSION JOINT BEARINGS IN BRIDGES 1.0 DESIGN CODE (CONCERNING ELASTOMERIC BEARINGS) Department of the Environment Highway Directorate Technical Memorandum (Bridges) No. BE 1/76 2.0 FUNCTIONS OF BEARINGS i) To trgnsfer loads from superstructure to substructure. ii) To accomodate expansion and contraction movements between different parts of a .structure. iii)To accomodate q nd rotations of deck girders. Rotation occurs as the deck deflects under load. iv)To limit the forces actually transmitted to the substructures by suitable design. v) To damp down vibrations and minimise the effect of impact loading in case of elastomeric bearings. 3.0 SOURCES OF DISPLACEI%ENTS 3.1 Movement and rotations tend to occur in all types of structural members. In bridges, these are generated due to the following reasons: I) Temperature variations ii) Concrete shrinkage and creep iii) Effect of prestressing iv)Dead, superimposed and live loads v) Tilt, settlements and seismic disturbances Displacements can either be in the form of movement in the longitudinal, transverse and vertical directions, rotational modes or any of their combinations. 3:2 For the purpose of,designing elastomeric bearings, it is the practice of Unit Jambatan to consider displacements only due to the Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

following factors: i) Longitudinal movements due to temperature variation, creep and shrinkage of concrete (S.T.C effects). ii) Rotation of girders due to the effect of dead, superimposed and live loads. 4.0 TYPES OF BEARINGS Basically, there are three different types of bearings commonly used in structural engineering. They are categorised according to material Classification as follows : i) Elastomeric Bearing. An.elastomer is either vulcanised natural rubber or synthetic material-called neoprene having rubberlike characteristics. Movement and rotation are accommodated by compressing or shearing .the layers. ii) Mechanical Bearing. The bearings are made up of metal such as steel. Movement and rotation are accommodated by rolling, rocking or sliding action of the metal parts. iii) Combination of Elastomeric and Mechanical Parts..-For bearings in this category, elastomer is used as the rotation medium'while horizontal movement capacity is.provided mechanically.

5.0 INITIAL SELECTION OF BEARINGS Many small bridges need no formal bearings. In general, this is true for spans below 10m, except where vibration is involved. In situation where bearings are required, they are designed and supplied by a specialist company. The criteria for the initial selection of bearings shall be based upon the following data : CHARACTERISTIC

Vertical load capacity (KN) Horizontal load capacity (KN) Horizontal movement (mm) Rotatian about horizontal axis (rod) To resist uplist forces Vibration damping Maintenance Contact stresses under bearing system First cost Life under proper maintenance schedule (years)

PROPERTIES OF ELASTOMER Elastomers can be produced with a wide range of physical properties. Some of the important properties include hardness, elastic, shear and bulk modulus which form part of the design parameters.

ELASTOMERIC BEARING i Basically all the bearings being designed and adopted by Unit Jambatan are of,the elastomeric type. This is so due to the fact that the majority of bridges are subjected to-loadings and rotations which are within the capacity of elastomeric bearings. For the purpose of this design manual, only elastomeric bearing will be discussed.

ii) Rotational Capacity of bearing shall be equal to or greater than rotation of girder at support. An additional tolerance of 0.005 radian shall be added to the rotation of girders to cater for the seating allowance. iii) Factors on stability of bearing. iv) Friction location.This is to ascertain that the bearing will not be displaced from the original position during service. 6.6 STATIC BEHAVIOUR OF ELASTOMER UNDER COMPRESSION When a block of elastomer is loaded in compression, its vertical stiffeness depends upon its freedom to bulge at the sides. This is expressed in terms of the ‘shape factor’.

On the same plan area, a thinner block will be stiffer vertically. ii) Partial Slippage. Under compressive loading, partial slip page will occur to the unbonded layers of an elastomeric bearing. Thus, the vertical stiffeness of the unbonded layers are reduced. To compensate for this, the two outer layers of a laminated bearing is treated as being 40% greater than the actual thickness. For the inner layers, since they are bonded on both sides by the steel plates, the effective thickness is equal to the actual thickness. For pad and strip bearings, their thickness is treated as being 80% greater than the actual thickness

The shape factor depends on the dimensions ans shapes of the elastomer slab. The Vertical stiffeness of the block increases rapidly with the shape factor. Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

LOCATION OF BEARING BY FRICTION When a bearing is subjected to direct shear strain, horizontal force is induced which tends to displace the bearing from its original position. To prevent this happening, there must be sufficient minimum vertical load acting on the bearing. Assuming the coefficient of friction between elastomer and concrete seating of 0.33 and a coefficient of 0.25 with steel seating, the friction location is checked as follow :

Minimum Compressive Force, V min. ----------------------------------------------- > 3 for elastomer in contact Maximum Horizontal Force, H max with concrete (> 4 for steel contact) V min = Dead Load Alone H Max = Ao G e b

7.1 DESIGN EXAMPLE The bridge designer can either select proprietory elastomeric bearings, or design bearings in detail, or even simply specify the requisite loads, movements and rotations, and then approve the bearing details submitted by the contractor. Standard. proprietory bearings, even if not fully loaded, will prove to be cheaper than special designs. The design of elastomeric bearings is essentially a trial and error process. The plan size of a bearing is normally governed by the. width of the beam it supports and the width of the abutment seating in the direction of the bridge span.

Note The rotation of the beam shall include an additional tolerance of 0.005 radians to.cater for the seating allowgnce. Thus, the minimum rotational capacity of the bearing shall.be 0.006 and 0.008 radians respectively under HA and HB loadings.

An elastomeric bearing shall now be designed to satisfy the following requirements:-

The carrying capacity of a free P nd bearing, subjected to horizontal movement, can be taken to be about 0.8 S N/mm2, as a first guess. Normally,, laminating is required in order to provide sufficient horizontal movement, while maintaining the vertical load carrying capacity. Plain.pad.may be sufficient if horizontal movement is very small, but not in this case. Horizontal movement of about half the total thickness of elastomer can be used as a starting point in design.

DESIGN OF DOWEL BARS 1) Elastomeric bearing can he conveniently subdivided into two types 'fixed', where the support member can only rotate, all horizontal movements. being restrained, and 'free', where the member can rctate and also move horizontally. 2) The fixed state is provided by dowels passing from the beam. to its support. In order to make provision for the possible replacement of bearings, these dowels are best placed between bearings, but where space is restricted they car. pass through holes in the bearing. Dowels usually need an elastomeric cap at one end to permit the superstructure to rotate relative to the sub structure. The dowels must penetrate to sufficient depth to resist the horizontal load, without inducing excessive stresses in the concrete. In all cases the doi,lels should be long enough to reach the main reinforcement in the support.

(Note: The load due to S.T.C is such that F- Z A,G eb,) 5) TYPICAL CALCULATION A) Design suibtable dowel bars at the fixed end of a bridge span to transfer the horizontal forces to the abutment. Input datas are as follwos :

3) Dowel bars at one end of a bridge span will form an expansion centre line, longitudinal movements of the deck will be accomodated by the bearings at the free end, horizontal loads will be carried by the dowels. It should be remembered that horizontal forces will be transmitted to the support at the tree end, due to the resistance of the bearings there to the horizontal movements, and this same force will be transmitted through the superstructure to the fixed end dowels. In Unit Jambatan,this force is calculated on the basis of the movement of the deck due /to changes in temperature, shrinkage and creep of concrete ( S.T.C ). 4) The dowel bars shall be designed to resist a combination of three types of horizontal load as follows: (i) Tractive load (ii) Wind load. (iii)Load due to the effect of S.T.C above.

EXPANSION JOINTS 1) GENERAL The expansion joint is an integral part of any bridge structure and should be considered at an early stage in the design. Joints which are properly designed, installed by specialist operatives together with reasonable maintenance should give trouble free service within its lifespan. Expansion joint is situated in the most vulnerable position on the bridge deck where it is subjected to impact.loading, vibration and exposed to dirt, ozone attack and other corrosive chemicals. 2) FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS . These are as follows i) To accommodate movements and with stand loadings. ii) To cater for operational needs. The sources of movements to be accommodated by an expansion joint are identical to that of a bearing.For this reason, expansion joints and bearings of any particular span of a bridge shall be designed to be compatible. An expansion joint shall be designed to withstand a combination of vertical and horizontal loads. This shall be discussed later under the heading of design load. The operational requirements for joints are as follows i)Possess good riding characteristics. ii) Not a skid hazard or danger. iii) Silent and vibration free iv) Be sealed against1water and foreign matter or make provision for their disposal. v) Be capable of absorbing the various types and ranges of movement., without being extruded or expelled from position. vi) Riding surface of joint must be able to withstand wear and tear and be durable against petroleum product, weather, etc.

vii) Facilities easy inspection, maintenance and repair 4) CLASSIFICATION OF EXPANSION JOINTS. i) Open Gap Joint. The joint comprises of two edges which are spaced some distance apart and not interconnected by. any load supporting connection. There are two categories of open gap joint : a) Buried joint under continuous premix surfacing. Most of the expansion joints being adopted by Unit Jambatan fall under this category. b)Exposed joints which are installed to flush with the wearing surface of the bridge deck. The joint may be completely opened or be sealed up with, say, neoprene sealing element. ii) Covered Gap Joint ( or Bridged Joint ). The gap is bridged by a sliding plate or some other transverse structural element. The structural element will be subjected to a combination of vertical and horizontal loads. iii) Composite Expansion Joint. The joint comprises of a gap bridging element for carrying the traffic loads together with a deformable closing seal element to ensure continuity of the carriageway surface.

5) SELECTION OF JOINT TYPE This is largely determined by the total range.of movement to be expected. 6) DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS . Expansion gap should be straight of uniform width and have a minimum gap of 6mm at maximum temperature. 7) DESIGN LOAD a) Vertical Two 112 KN wheel loads, 0.9m apart, with a contact area of 265 x 265mm. It shall be applied to the edge ef.the expansion gap. It.may be spread tranversely over such a length as is justified by the continuity and rigidity of the joint subject to a maximum of 450mm on either side of the centre line of each wheel. b) Horizontal A traffic force of 60KN/m run o£ joint, acting at load level.. 8) ANCHORAGE SYSTEM i) The joints are severely loaded. Forces involved are vertical, horizontal together with twisting moments. ii) The common types of anchorage system: . - Epoxy mortar nosing. - Anchor bars. - Holding down bolts ( May be prestressed ). iii) Stresses in concrete, structural steel, epoxy mortar etc must be within the permissible values. 9) INSTALLATION OF EXPANSION JOINT i) The whole operation shall receive competent supervision. Only.proper materials and equipment shall be used, in accordancewith the manufacturers instructions. ii) Prior to installing the joint system, the bedding shall be prepared accordingly without traces of dirt, oil and other impurities. iii) Composite meoprene expansion Cawangan Jalan, Ibu Pejabat JKR, K.L

joints are installed in precompressed condition: - During placing+fconcrete or epoxy mortar, the joint assembly shall be immovable both in vertical and horizontal directions. - Can be achieved by :a) Clamp down the joint assembly. b) Install under uniform temperature condition. iv) The joint shall hot be subjected to any kind of loading until /all the materials have gained the required strength. 10) PROVISION FOR DRAINAGE Water and other foreign products shall not be allowed to reach the bearings, girders, pier head etc, Provision must be made to prevent the ingress of surface water through the joint. i) For water tight joints, ensure that the sealing agents are performing in the manner intended. ii) For large open joints, Special drainage techniques must be adopted to deal with surface water, earth etc, easy access for cleaning shall be provided. iii) Provide with proper Camber and crossfall within the carriageway surface around the joint to discharge water. v) Water that collects and runs along the kerbs sould be intercepted by suitable drainage outlet before it reaches the joints 11) MAINTENANCE It is essential that expansion joints are easily accessible for the purpose of maintenance. i) Joints shall be regularly inspected to ensure that no parts are loose, the sealing materials are intact, and drainage systems are working properly. ii) Safeguard the screws and bolts against corrosion. Holding down bolts need to be retentioned to the required torque once they are.loose. Page 121
