Results of typical 125m span bridges having heights of 9.0m, 10.0m and 12.5m, and another 50.0m span and 2.5m height are given. Member stresses and bridge deflections during erection remained safe. Average steel off take for the 125m bridge is 2.65 t/m and for the 50m span bridge it is 1.77 t/m for limiting live load deflection of Span/800. Its reserve strength is 3.2 times service condition live load. The girders are panel wise workshop fabricated, assembled at site, jacked up or crane lifted to secure over bearings. Connection of the cross members, and onsite deck casting in parts with stage wise bottom chord prestressing is carried out. Short to long span bridges for single or multiple lanes in road, rail, metro rail, and coastal link projects are feasible.

Description

COMPOSITE RCC DECK AND PRESTRESSED PARABOLIC BOTTOM CHORD UNDERSLUNG OPEN WEB STEEL GIRDER BRIDGE SUPERSTRUCTURE
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The invented ‘Composite RCC deck and prestressed parabolic bottom chord underslung open web steel girder bridge superstructure’ falls in the area of Bridge Engineering in Civil Engineering. The short (10m) to long (200m) span superstructures can be used for infrastructure projects related to single or multiple lane road, rail, metro rail, fly over and sea link.
BACKGROUND
[0002] In road, rail and metro rail like transportation systems, bridges are frequently required to cross rivers, as flyovers and sea links etc. For bridges high tensile strength (HTS) steel cables are very economical, using which long span suspension bridges, cable stayed bridges, and more recently stressed ribbon bridges are constructed. However, HTS cables are very flexible and this results in structural disadvantage in the bridge.
[0003] Using shear connectors, when RCC deck slab is made composite with the top chord of an under slung open web steel girder bridge superstructure, its buckling is prevented and strength and stiffness of the bridge significantly increase. Prestressing of the bottom chord, apart from inducing favourable precompression in the deck slab, counters its tension due to the applied loads, and it also exerts balancing upward thrust. This type of bridge using HTS cables in the bottom chord, is invented for its high strength. Bottom chord profile of the bridge, if made parabolic (polygon shaped), results in its uniform tension under uniformly distributed load due to self-weight or live load, which facilitates its prestress. Thus, ‘Composite RCC deck and prestressed parabolic bottom chord underslung open web steel girder bridge superstructure’, henceforth referred to as ‘the prestressed composite bridge’ is invented.
OBJECTIVES OF THE INVENTION
[0004] It was aimed to invent a robust prestressed composite bridge superstructure, which has high strength, low structural steel consumption, low cost, high reserve strength and easy erection, where substructure and superstructure constructions may be planned as parallel activities reducing the construction time and cost. It was also aimed to provide a bridge superstructure solution of this kind, which is suitable for short spans (10m), as well as for long spans (200m), for single or multiple lane road, rail, metro rail, fly over and projects like coastal links.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0005] Typical design and approximate erection stage analysis examples of the prestressed composite bridge for 125m span and 50m span are given. While girder stresses under all erection stages are low and safe, member stresses under Serviceability Limit State (SLS) condition are also very safe, as the limiting deflection in SLS condition is governing.
[0006] Maximum deflections under SLS condition for 2- lanes of class-A IRC loading is 155.6mm with 2.65t/m average steel off take for 125m span, and 57.6mm with 1.77t/m average steel off take for 50m span bridges. [0007] Due to low SLS condition stresses, conservative reserve strength of the bridge beyond SLS condition up to yield condition for the 125m span bridge is 3.2 times the live load in SLS condition, and for the 50m span it is 2.8 times. Therefore, design and construction methodology of this type of bridge supported with design guidelines as per existing codes of practice is invented.
[0008] Summary of design and erection stage analysis results for the 125m and 50m span bridges in terms of steel off take, member stresses, prestress applied and deflection under live load are given in table-1.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0015] The headings used herein are for organizational purposes only, and are not meant to be used to limit the scope of the description or the claims. As used throughout this application, the word "may" is used in a permissive sense (i.e., meaning having the potential to), rather than the mandatory sense (i.e., meaning must). Similarly, the words “include”, “including”, and “includes” mean including but not limited to. To facilitate understanding, like reference numerals have been used, where possible, to designate like elements common to the Fig. s. Optional portions of the Figs, may be illustrated using dashed or dotted lines, unless the context of usage indicates otherwise.
[0016] A typical 125m span and 9m deep composite prestressed 2-lane open web steel girder bridge is designed for which 2-d line sketch is given in Figure 1. The top chord consists of 500mm x 500mm x 16mm box section, the bottom chord is 500mm x 600mm x 22mm box section, and the web members have the section of 500mm x 200mm x 16mm.
[0017] Typical anchorage system at the supports of the under slung bridge superstructure is shown in Figure 2. E410 grade steel having 410N/mm2 yield stress is used in the end panels for high strength in the anchorage, support and the transition zones. Two number 27T15 cables for the 125m span case for each girder are used. Loads from the cable anchors, apart from the top and bottom plates, are transmitted through the extended two number E410 grade bottom chord side plates and one number central stiffening plate (10). The anchorage system must be designed with high fos, shop fabricated, and tested before assembly.
Analysis:
[0018] Using FEM software, the superstructure is analyzed as space frame with the composite deck modeled as plate elements, for which the model is shown in Figure 3. It is analyzed for two lanes of Class A (IRC:6-2017) load and the low member axial stress diagrams in service condition are shown in Figure 4.
[0019] Maximum deflection of the bridge under live load is 155.6mm, which is within the prescribed limit of Span/800. Average steel off take of the bridge superstructure is 2.65 t/m, which is significantly lower than similar open web steel girder superstructure steel offtake. Parallel 125m span 10m deep and 12.5 m deep girder models are also analyzed and the results of the 9m, 10m and 12.5m deep girders are compared.
Erection of the bridge superstructure:
[0020] The bridge girder panels may be fabricated in the workshop using welded or HSFG bolted connections. The panels are transported to the site where these are assembled and connected, and the individual girders are lifted to securely placed over the bearings using jacks or cranes or any other suitable device. The cross members for top and bottom chords may be then connected. Deck slab for the superstructure is cast in symmetrical parts using bonding agent and stage prestressing.
[0021] HTS prestressing cables are laid in the parabolic bottom chord. Prestressing of the strands is carried out in stages as per design. Results of the different construction stages for member stresses and maximum deflection are shown in Figures 4 through 10 for the 125m x 9m bridge case.
[0022] Typical example for stage prestressing is given below for the two number 27T15 cables in each bottom chord.
[0023] Stage 1 : Launch the girder including cross members, cross girders and stringer beams and suitably apply a prestress of 2000 kN (Fig.5). Deflection at mid span of the girder in this stage is 17.8mm (downward).
[0024] Stage 2: Apply additional 2000 kN prestress (Fig. 6). Deflection at mid span of the girder in this stage is 151.7mm (upward).
[0025] Stage 3 : Cast deck slab in l/5th spans from either end. This stage includes construction load of 5 kN/m2. Deflection at mid span of the girder in this stage is 3.5mm (upward).
[0026] Stage 4: Apply additional 1000 kN prestress after 10 days of concreting in Stage 3 and cast next l/5th spans (11). Deflection at mid span of the girder in this stage is 121.7mm (downward).
[0027] Stage 5: Apply additional 1000 kN prestress after 10 days of concreting in Stage 4 and cast central l/5th span (11). Deflection at mid span of the girder in this stage is 7.6 mm (downward). [0028] Stage 6: Prestress by additional 3100 kN force after 28 days of applying SIDL on the deck (11). Deflection at mid span of the girder in this stage is 75.5mm (upward).
[0029] As an alternative, two stage prestressing, first before deck casting, and second after its hardening may be better.
[0030] Live load is now applied on the bridge. Deflection at mid span of the girder in this stage is 80.5mm (downward). Additional prestress can be applied in due course of time to make up for tine dependent losses etc., reflected in terms of sagging deflection.
[0031] Another typical 50m span and 2.5m deep composite prestressed 2-lane open web steel girder bridge is designed (Fig.11). The top chord consists of 300mm x 300mm x 16mm box section, the bottom chord is 300mm x 450mm x 22mm box section, and the web members have the width of 300mm, thickness of 16mm and depth of 250mm.
[0032] FEM model and axial stress diagram in service condition are given in Fig.12 and Fig.13, respectively.
Prestress calculation using load balancing:
[0033] It is assumed that after application of prestress, the girders become horizontal and cables carry total permanent load and half the live load with impact. Finer prestress adjustment for losses etc. may be carried out as required for the final deck profile.
[0034] Taking parabolic bottom chord center as origin, equation for it is; y = ax2, or a= 2.5/(25x25) = 0.004 (dy/dx)end = 2ax = 0.008x25 = 0.2 rad
Balancing load = SW- 750 +Deck - 2660 + WC - 610 + CB - 750 + (LL with Impact)/2 - 604 = 5374 kN
Prestress required per girder = 5374/ (2x2x0.2) = 6797 kN
Provide 2 no. 19T15 ( 3870 kN) cables.
Pre-compression in deck slab:
Taking 19T15 cable stressed after deck slab hardening, prestress applied along the two bottom chords;
= 2x3870 = 7740 kN
Vertical component goes to support, and horizontal force, = 7740 cos 11.4 = 7587 kN
Areas (Cm2) ; Top chord = 192, Equivalent deck =1770, Bottom chord = 330
Force shard by bottom chord = (330/2292) x 7740x.98 = 1093 kN
Force taken by RCC deck = (7740-1093)x 1770/1962 = 5996 kN
Therefore, Axial stress in deck = 5996000/ 2125000 = 2.8 N/mm2
[0035] Adding tensile strength of concrete say 1.4 N/mm2, and keeping cross girder spacing suitably, deck slab can be designed on no-crack basis, which is highly desirable for the composite deck. [0036] The typical examples of 125m span, 9m deep and 50m span 2.5m deep, 2- lane highway superstructure girders are optimized to result in steel off take of 331.0 t and 88.5t, respectively. The maximum deflections due to live load at mid span are 151.3 mm and 57.6mm respectively for the 125m and 50m spans which are within the permissible deflection of Span/800.
[0037] For the 125m span bridge, the axial member stresses during erection and concreting of the deck are checked with prestressing applied at different stages as per design to be safe. The limiting live load for elastic condition is found to be 3.2 times the SLS live load for the 125m span, and 2.8 times for the 50m span, confirming their robustness. In the case of the 125m span, for parallel 10m and 12.5m deep girder examples, steel off takes are 310 t and 299 t, and corresponding live load deflections are 135.5 mm and 140.1mm, respectively.
[0038] Concrete Grouting: Dead weight of the superstructure is fully supported by the prestress alone with favorable precompression in the RCC deck, and hence, expansive concrete grouting of the box sections is desirable. The Concrete Filled Steel Tube (CFST) now becomes composite, providing additional strength and stiffness to the bridge superstructure.
