Week 11 Challenge
Given Date-
Location of Bridge Delhi
Rcc Bridge
Grade M40
Box girder 1.5 m x 1.5 m
Dia Pier =2.5
Deck Slab Width =7 Mtr
Width of Pier Cap 6 Mtr
Slab Thikness 550 mm
Sol:-
Effective Temperature Difference
=(48.4--2.2)/2+10=35.3 Degree
As Per IRC 6
Stress due to temperature
=11.27*10-6*35.3*5000(40)1/2=12.58

For the purpose of calculation teperature effect the coefficient of thermal expansion for
RCC,PSC STEEL Structure may be taken as 12.0*10-6/oc.
Max Permissible strees
=(2/3)*0.7*(40)1/2=2.95
Maximum temperature in the location in the location IRC:6 = 48.4 Degree
Minimum temperature in the location as per location as per IRC 6 =-2.2 Degree


Max Temperature = 48.4
Min Temperature = -2.2
top = 48.4
Bottom =(2.1/17.8)*48.4)5.710
