- Explain in detail the steps involved in calculation of the loads considered in piers.
AIM:
Here i am going to explain about the steps involved in the calculation of the loads considered in the piers.
- Dead load of structure
Dead load of U- girder Dead load of pier cap
Density of concrete - 2.50 t/m³ volume of pier cap- 31.00
Cross-sectional area of U- girder - 2.173m² Dead load of pier cap- 31*2.5= 77.50 Ton
Dead load of 27m U-girder - 2.173*2.5*27= 146.7 ton
Dead load of pier
Area of pier ( circular pier diameter =1.7m)-2.27
Dead load of pier/m = 2.27*2.5=5.67 Ton
- superimposed dead load
Load due to SIDL - 2.20 Ton/m/track
SIDL of 27 m U- girder- 2.2*27= 59.40 Ton
- LIVE LOAD
- one track one side loaded (longitudinal direction)
- one track both side loaded (longitudinal direction)
- both track one side loaded (longitudinal direction)
4.both track both side loaded(longitudinal direction)
AXLE LOAD
- Braking load:
It is taken as 18 percent of the unfactored vertical loads.
- Traction load:
It is taken as 20 percent of the unfactored vertical loads
- since each track is supported by a single U - girder tractive force of one track and braking force of another track will be taken in athe same direction to produce the worst condition of loading
- CENTIRIFUGAL FORCE :
WIND LOAD
calculation of wind load is based on IS - 875(PART3) - 1987.
The design wind at height z is considered as fallow .
Vz= Vb.K1.K2.K3
Vb(m/s) Reginal basic wind speed taken 47 m/s for varanshi
GENERAL PARAMETERS Vb
total structure Height above ground H = 13.6m
Regional basic wind speed Vb = 47m/s
probability factor = 1.07
Terrain Height and structure size factor K2 = 0.856 ASSUMING CATEGORY 3 TERRAIN
TOPOGRAPHY FACTOR K3= 1.0 class c structure
design wind speed at height z, Vz
Vz= Vb. K1. K2.K3= 43.1m/s
wind pressure = 1112.41 N/m²
Pz= 0.6×Vz²= 0.113 t/m²
- LOAD FROM SUPERSTRUCTURE
Over width of both U- girder combined b = 10.15m
contributing length of superstructure l= 27.00m
Total Depth of superstructure d = 1.87m
Height of live load above U- girder h= 3.232m
Transverse wind load without live load = 50.49m
Project area of structure A1 = l×d = 5.73m
PD= Pz×At = 15.62m
Acting @above pier bottom
Transverse wind load with live load
Project area of structure A1= l×d+h = 137.75m
PD= PZ×At = 15.62m
Acting @above pier bottom = 14.80m
Vertical wind load Pv =
Plan Area of superstructure Av= b×l = 274.05m²
Pv= Pz×Av = 31.08t
LOAD ON SUBSTRUCTURE
PIER CAP
Width of pier cap ( conservation)b = 3.10m
length of pier cap d = 9.60m
height of pier cap h = 2.00m
height of pier cap above ground h = 11.55m
wind in longitudinal direction
Ratio a/b=d/b = 0.32
force coefficient Cf = 1.22
projected area of structure At= h×d= 19.20m³
wind force F= Cf×Pz×At= 2.65t
Acting @above pier bottom = 11.05m
wind in transverse direction
Ratio a/b =b/d = 3.10
force coefficient Cf = 1.04
Projected Area structure A1 =h×b = 6.20m³
wind force F = 0.73t
Acting@above pier bottom = 11.05m
PIER
Diametre of pier , b= 1.70m
Height of pier above Ground h = 9.55m
wind in longitudinal /transverse direction
Ratio height /Breadth = h/b = 5.62
force cofficient Cf = 0.80
projected area of structure A1 = h×b = 16.24m²
wind force F = 1.47t
Acting@above pier bottom = 5.28m
SEISMIC ACCELERATION : Ah= (z/2)*(l/R)*(sa/g) where:
Ah= horizontal seismic coefficent to be considered in design
Z= zone factor = 0.16( for varanasi region)
I= importance factor= 1.50
R= response Reduction factor
=4 for pier
sa/g being computed as per irc 6:2017 for medium soil sites
mathematics expressions are:
sa/g=1+15T for 0.0< T <0.10
sa/g=2.5 for 0.10<T<0.55
sa/g = 1.36/T for 0.55<T<4.00
