1) Calculate the loads to be applied on the abutment as per IRC 6
1) Calculation of load due to DL of Superstructure
i)SW of slab = 15*12*1*2.5=450 t
Total Reaction of deck slab on abutment = 450/2=225 t
Longitudinal eccentricity from A of pile cap=4.3-0.2-0.02-0.39=3.69 m
ML =450*3.69=1660.5 t-m
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =0 m
MT = 0 t-m
ii) Back Wall
assume, back wall thickness=0.3m
back wall height = 1.0m
back wall length = 9.0m
SW of back wall = 9*1*0.2*2.5=4.5 t
Total Reaction of deck slab on abutment = 4.5 t
Longitudinal eccentricity from A of pile cap=4.3-0.1=4.20 m
ML =4.50*4.2=18.90 t-m
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =0 m
MT = 0 t-m
2) Calculation of Load due to SIDL (CB,footpath)
i) CB width = 0.5m each side
intensity of SIDL (CB)=1.5 t/m
CB reaction on abutment =1/2*(15*1.5*2)=22.5 t
ii) Footpath width = 1.5m each side
intensity of SIDL (footpath)=1 t/m
footpath reaction on abutment =1/2*(15*1*2)=15 t
total reaction on abutment = 22.5+15 =37.5 t
Longitudinal eccentricity from A of pile cap=3.69 m
ML =37.5*3.69=138.38 t-m
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =0 m
MT = 0 t-m
3) Calculation of Load due to SIDL (WC)
thickness of WC= 0.065m
WC reaction on abutment =1/2*(15*8*0.065*2.2)=8.58 t
Longitudinal eccentricity from A of pile cap=3.69 m
ML =8.58*3.69=31.66 t-m
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =0 m
MT = 0 t-m
4) Calculation of load due to DL of Substructure
SW of Abutment = 9*1*5*2.5=112.5 t
Reaction =112.5 t
Longitudinal eccentricity from A of pile cap=4.3/2=2.15 m
ML =112.5*2.15=241.88 t-m
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =0 m
MT = 0 t-m
5) Calculation of load due to returnwall of Substructure
Assume,
length of return wall = 1.65m
height of return wall = 6m
thickness of return wall = 0.3m
SW of return wall = 2*1.65*6*0.3*2.5=14.85 t
Longitudinal eccentricity from A of pile cap=1.65/2=0.825 m
ML =14.85*0.825=12.25 t-m
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =4.35 m
since both MT acts opposite to each other ,hence nullify the effects
MT = 0 t-m
6) Calculation of load due to Backfill of Substructure
assume backfill soil density = 20kN/m3= 2t/m3
SW of Backfill soil = 8.4*1.65*6*2=166.32 t
Longitudinal eccentricity from A of pile cap=1.65/2=0.825 m
ML =166.32*0.825=137.21 t-m
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =0 m
MT = 0 t-m
7) Calculation of Earth Pressure
k=0.33
lateral Earth pressure = Pa=0.5*Ka*Y*H^2=0.5*0.33*20*6^2
=118.8 kN/m = 11.88 t/m
Total Earth force = 11.88*9=106.92 t
Acting at H/3 =2m
H = 106.92 t
HL= 106.92*2 =213.84 t-m
HT= 0 t-m
8)LL Surcharge load
live load surcharge pressure = k*Y*1.2=0.33*2*1.2=0.79 t/m2
lateral force = 0.79*9*6=42.66 t
point of action = 6/2=3m
ML = 42.66*3=127.98 t-m
MT = 0 t-m
9) Live Load Analysis and effective width calculation for 70R and Cl A to be done to calculate the reactions on the abutment
Ans -
CW = 8m
abutment width = 1 m
effective span = 15 m
Number of lanes = 2
vehicle combination - 1. 1 lane of class 70 R (T)
2. 2 Lane of class A
9.a) 1 lane of class 70 R(T)
impact factor = 10% for span of 15m
Total Load = 1.1*70 = 77 t
Max Moment Case
dispersion of load along the span ----
leff= 4.57+2(1+0.065) =6.57m
effective width of load----------
bef= α*a(1-a/lo)+b1
b/lo =12/15 = 0.8
α = 2.24
a = 7.5 m
b1= 0.84+2(0.065)=0.97 m
bef= 2.24*7.5(1-7.5/15)+0.97 =9.37 m = 2*4.685m ...................for one track
hence bef of 70R T vehicle =0.5+1.5+1.2+2.9-0.84/2+4.685=10.365m
intensity of load = 77 /(6.57*10.365)=1.13 t/m2
vertical reaction on abutment = 1.13*6.57 /2= 3.72 t
ML = (3.72*7.5)- (1.13*3.285*3.285/2) =218.73 kNm
P = 3.72 t
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =4.5-0.5-1.5-1.2-2.9/2=0.15 m
MT= 3.72*0.15=0.56 t-m
Max Reaction case
Vehicle is at support to get the max vertical reaction
P = 77 t
Longitudinal eccentricity from A of pile cap=3.69 m
ML =77*3.69=284.13 t-m
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =4.5-0.5-1.5-1.2-2.9/2=0.15 m
MT = 77*0.15=11.55 t-m
9.b) 2 lane of class A
impact factor = 21.4% for span of 15m
Total Load = 1.214*2*11.4 = 27.68 t
Max Moment Case
dispersion of load 11.4 t one wheel along the span ----
leff= 0.25+2(1+0.065) =2.38m=2*1.19m
dispersion length of load of 2 wheels=1.19+1.2+1.19=3.58m
effective width of one vehicle load----------
bef= α*a(1-a/lo)+b1
b/lo =12/15 = 0.8
α = 2.24
a = 7.5-1.2/2=6.9 m
b1= 0.5+2(0.065)=0.63 m
bef= 2.24*6.9(1-6.9/15)+0.63 =8.976 m = 2*4.49m ...................for one track
hence bef of Cl A 2 vehicle =0.5+1.5+0.15+0.25+1.8+0.25+1.2+0.25+1.8+4.49=12.19m
Hence bef = 12m
intensity of load = 27.68 /(3.58*12)=0.64 t/m2
vertical reaction on abutment = 0.64*3.58 /2= 1.15 t
ML = (1.15*7.5)- (0.64*1.79*1.79/2) =7.6 t-m
P = 1.15 t
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =0.5+1.5+0.15+(2.3+1.2+2.3)/2=5.05 m
MT = 1.15*5.05=5.81 t-m
Max Reaction case
Vehicle is at support to get the max vertical reaction
1.2 4.3 3.0 3.0 3.0 =14.50m
11.4 11.4 6.8 6.8 6.8 6.8 =50 t
CG of vehicle = 5.7 m
P = 2*50=100 t
impact factor =1.214
P = 1.214*100=121.4 t
Reaction on abutment = Rb =121.4*5.7/15=46.13 t
Ra= 121.4-46.13 =75.27 t
Longitudinal eccentricity from A of pile cap=2.15-0.39=1.76 m
ML =75.27*1.76=132.48 t-m
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =0.5+1.5+0.15+(2.3+1.2+2.3)/2=5.05 m
MT = 75.27*5.05=380.11 t-m

10) Braking force
braking force =0.20*70=14 t
point of application = 6 m
ML=14*6=84 t-m
MT=0
11) Footway Live Load
Intensity of footway loading = 400 kg/m2
for 15m effective span
P=P'-(40*15-300)/9 =366.67 kg/m2 =0.37 t/m2
footway load = 2*0.37*15*1.5=16.65 t
vertical reaction on abutment = 8.33 t
Longitudinal eccentricity from A of pile cap=2.15-0.39=1.76 m
ML = 8.33*1.76 =14.66 t-m
Transeverse eccentricity from C/L of Pile Cap =5.125 m
since both MT acts opposite to each other ,hence nullify the effects
MT = 0 t-m
12) Buoyancy
volume of abutment= 9*4*1=36 m3
Buoyancy force = 36*1t/m3 =-36 t
ML = -36*2.15= 77.4 t-m
