INPUT VARIABLES:

CLEAR SPAN: 10.56 m

BEARING WIDTH: 700 mm
FOOTPATH WIDTH: 1 m
WEARING COAT: 75 mm
NO. OF LANES: 2
CONCRETE GRADE: 25 N/mm2

m= 10
k= 0.29
j= 0.903
Q= 1.09

2) DEPTH DETERMINATION:

O/D FOR 10.56m SPAN = 950 mm (Assuming 80mm depth required for 1m span)
EFFECTIVE DEPTH = 887.5 mm (Assuming 25mm dia bars to be used)
EFFECTIVE SPAN (Maximum of):
I) ln+d = 11.4475 m
II) C/C dist. b/w supports = 11.26 m

= 11.4475 m

3) dead load bending moment and dead load shear force:

D.L OF SLAB = 22.8 KN (Assuming unit wt. of concrete 24 KN/m3)

D.L OF WEARING COAT = 1.65 KN (Assuming unit wt. of wearing coat 22 KN/m3)
TOTAL= 24.45 KN

BENDING MOMENT = 24.45 X 11.4475^2/8 = 400.51 KNm/m

SHEAR FORCE = 24.45 X 10.56 /2 = 129.096 KNm/m

IRC CLASS AA TRACKED VEHICLE:

4) LIVE load bending moment and shear force CALCULATION:

EFFECTIVE LENGTH OF DISPERSION = 3.6+2 x (950+75)/1000 = 5.65 m

EFFECTIVE BREADTH OF DISPERSION FOR SINGLE WHEEL (MAX BENDING MOMENT CRITERIA):

TOTAL BREADTH OF CARRIAGEWAY = 7.5 m

ASPECT RATIO = 0.83
VALUE OF FOR ASPECT RATIO 0.83 FROM CHART IS = 2.288
x= 5.72375 m
b1= 1m
2.288x5.72375x(1-5.72375/11.4475)+1= 7.55 m

TOTAL EFFECTIVE BREADTH OF DISPERSION :

Bf = 2.625+2.05+3.775= 8.45 m
2.625 2.05 3.775

EFFECTIVE BREADTH OF DISPERSION FOR SINGLE WHEEL (MAX SHEAR FORCE CRITERIA):

ASPECT RATIO = 0.83

VALUE OF FOR ASPECT RATIO 0.83 FROM CHART IS = 2.288
x= 2.825 m
b1= 1m
2.288x2.825x(1-2.825/11.4475)+1= 5.87 m
2.625 2.05 2.935
TOTAL EFFECTIVE BREADTH OF DISPERSION :
Bf = 2.625+2.05+2.935= 7.61 m

5) impact factor:
IMPACT FACTOR = 0.1
TOTAL LIVE LOAD = 770 KN
2.89875 5.65
6) CALCULATION OF MAXIMUM BENDING MOMENT :
16.13
TOTAL DISPERSION AREA = 8.45 X 5.65 = 47.7425 m2
UNIT LIVE LOAD = 770 / 47.7425 = 16.13 KN/m2
11.4475
MAX BENDING MOMENT(L.L)= (16.13x5.65/2X11.4475/2)-(16.13x5.65/2x5.65/4)
= 196.45 KNm/m
TOTAL BENDING MOMENT AT MID-SPAN (DL+LL)= 196.45 + 400.51 = 596.96 KNm/m

6) CALCULATION OF MAXIMUM SHEAR FORCE :

TOTAL DISPERSION AREA = 43.00 m2

UNIT LIVE LOAD = 770 / 43 = 17.91 KN/m2

MAX SHEAR FORCE (L.L) = 16.13x5.65x(11.4475-5.65/2)/11.4475 5.65

68.644 KN/m
TOTAL S.F AT SUPPORT (DL+LL) = 68.64 +129.1 = 197.75 KN/m 16.13
