Design of Substructure & Foundation For Pier: (Table:8, Cl.219.5.1.1, IRC:6-2014)

This document summarizes the design of the substructure and foundation for a pier, including: 1. It calculates the seismic zone factor, natural period, and seismic coefficients for longitudinal and transverse directions. 2. It determines the response reduction factors for bearings, pier, and foundation. 3. It calculates the equivalent seismic forces and moments at the top of the pier cap and pilecap in both directions, accounting for the weight and center of gravity of elements.

DESIGN OF SUBSTRUCTURE & FOUNDATION FOR PIER

Seismic Zone = II
Zone factor, z = 0.1
( Sa/g ) Calculation
The Fundamental Natural Period T = 2√(D/1000F)
D = Dead Load of the Superstructure (kN)
F = Horizontal Force in kN ( for 1 mm deflection of the Bridge)

= 3EIδ/L

for δ = 1 mm
F = 63 kN Longitudinal direction
F = 36 kN Transverse direction
D = 1572 kN Longitudinal direction
D = 1850 kN Transverse direction
T = 0.316 Longitudinal direction
T = 0.457 Transverse direction
Sa/g = 2.50 Longitudinal directiom
Sa/g = 2.19 Transverse direction
I = Importance Coefficient = 1.20 (Table:8, Cl.219.5.1.1, IRC:6-2014)

Horizontal Seismic Coefficient in any direction A h= 0.150 Longitudinal direction


Horizontal Seismic Coefficient in any direction A h= 0.131 Transverse direction
Combination of Seismic forces
Maximum coeff. = r1 + 0.3 r2 + 0.3 r3
r1 = r2 = 0.15 Longitudinal direction
r3 = 0.10
r1 = r2 = 0.13 Transverse direction
r3 = 0.09
Bearings
Response reduction factor R = 1.000 (Table:8, 219.5.5, IRC:6-2014)
Pier & Foundation
Response reduction factor R = 2.500 (Table:8, 219.5.5, IRC:6-2014)
Using this coefficients, force values are calculated at bearing level seperately and used for design.
