    Calculation of Braking Force

    Uploaded by

    Waheed Ahmad
    The document summarizes the calculation of braking force for bridge design according to AASHTO specifications. It calculates the braking force as (1) 25% of the axle weights of the design truck, (2) 5% of the design truck plus lane load, and (3) 5% of the design tandem plus lane load. It then calculates the total braking force, force per girder, and moment arm to determine the moment of 244.48 kip-ft. The document also provides calculations for centrifugal force and axial force for bridge design.

    CALCULATION OF BRAKING FORCE

    As per AASHTO LRFD 2012 Clause 3.6.4 explains calculation of


    Braking Force

    1) 25% of Axle Weights of Design Truck

    No. of Lanes = 2
    Multiple Presence Factor = 1
    For HL-93 Total Axle Weight = 72 kips
    BR1 = 36.00 kips

    2) 5% of Design Truck Plus Lane Load

    Design Lane Load = 0.64 kip/ft (As per AASHTO)


    Span of Bridge = 30 m 98.43
    BR2 = 6.75 kips

    3) 5% of Design Tandem Plus Lane Load

    Design Lane Load = 0.64 kip/ft (As per AASHTO)


    Span of Bridge = 30 m 98.43
    Total Axle Weight of Tandem = 50 kips
    BR3 = 5.65 kips

    Therefore BR = 36.00 kips


    No. of Girders or Bearing = 2
    BR per Girder or Bearing = 18 kips
    Deck Thickness = 0 mm 0.00
    Wearing Thickness = 50 mm 0.16
    Girder Depth = 1600 mm 5.25
    Moment Arm = 6ft+Deck Th.+Wearing Th.+Girder Depth
    Transom Depth = 1200 mm 3.94
    Moment Arm = 13.58 ft
    Moment = 244.48 kip-ft
    END CONDITION

    R= 250 m

    V= 45.5672 ft/sec

    C= 0.1048193137

    No. of Lanes = 2

    No. of Bearings = 2

    distance b/w Bearings = 2.6 m

    Span = 29.5 m
    AXIAL FORC
    Girder depth 1.4 m

    Transome Depth 1.4 m

    LOAD of one HL-93 Truck = (32+32+8) Kips

    TOTAL LOAD of HL-93 Truck for no. of lanes= 65.33575 Tons

    Total Transverse force at center of vehicle = 6.848449 Tons

    Transverse force component per bearing = 3 Tons

    Axial Component per bearing = 10 Tons

    HL-93 length 8.533984 m

    centrifugal force per meter length 0.80 Tons/M

    moment due to centrifugal force= 1.47 ton-m/M
