    AASHTO LRFD Live Load

    Uploaded by

    Franjo Joha
    The document discusses the design live load HL93 according to AASHTO LRFD specifications for prestressed bridge design. HL93 consists of either a design truck or tandem applied simultaneously with a lane load, whichever produces larger effects. For negative moments between inflection points, 90% of the effect of two design trucks spaced at a minimum of 15,000 mm is combined with 90% of the lane load. Design loads are applied over a 3m width within the 3.6m lane, and the extreme load considers multiple lanes loaded simultaneously using a multiple presence factor.

    Design of Prestressed Bridges acc.

    to AASHTO LRFD

    Application of Live Load

    • The Design Live Load HL93


    consists of a design truck
    or design tandem applied
    simultaneously with a
    design lane load,
    whichever gives the larger
    effect on the bridge.

    • For negative moment


    between inflection
    points,90% of the effect of
    two design
    d i trucks k spacedd
    at minimum of 15000 mm
    combined with 90% of the
    design lane load.

    Design of Prestressed Bridges acc. to AASHTO LRFD

    Application of Live Load

    • Design Truck, Design Tandem and Design Lane loads are applied
    over a 3.0-m width, within the 3.6-m lane width.

    Design of Prestressed Bridges acc. to AASHTO LRFD

    Application of Live Load

    • The extreme live load


    effect shall consider a
    number of transversely
    loaded lanes multiplied by
    a multiple presence factor
    to account for the
    probability of
    simultaneous lane
    occupation by the full
    HL-93 design live load.
