Slab Bridge
Slab Bridge:
• Small Span (20-25 ft) Deck Girder Bridge: 50’<L<100’
• No navigation (ships/boats) Box Girder Bridge: L>100’
• Only water flows

Loads (contd)
• The size of the “standard truck” and the

distribution of its weight is reported in the
AASHTO code.
• The “H” loading consists of two-axial truck
• The “HS” loading consists of tractor truck with
semi-trailer
• For H20-44 & HS20-44, 20kip is the weight of half
of the first 2 axles i.e. 20 tons is the weight of the
first two axles

Design Data
• Clear Span= 20+n (n=1,2,3,... … , 15)
• Width= 24 ft (Odd rolls)
30 ft (even rolls)
• Tensile strength of steel,fy= 40 ksi (Odd rolls)
60 ksi (even rolls)
• f’c= 4000 psi(Odd rolls)
3000 psi (even rolls)
• Design truck : HS15(Odd rolls)
HS20 (even rolls)
• Wearing surface loading= 30 psf
• Abutment wall thickness = 1’6”

Analysis
• Span,L or, S =c/c distance between supports
or, clear span + slab thickness
(whichever is smaller)
• Determine minimum thickness of the slab.
tmin =1.2 ( ) [deflection control criteria]
(Here, S in ft and tmin will be in ft.)
• Compute self-weight and wDL .
wDL = wself-weight + wwearing surface
Analysis
• Calculate Dead load moment.
MDL = wDLL2/8 lb-ft/ft
• Wheel load distribution width, E= (4+.06S) ft< 7 ft
• Calculate Live load moment.
MLL = ( ) where, P’= P/E (for truck loading)
or, P/2E (for lane loading)
P= P15 = 12,000 lb for HS15/H15
= P20 = 16,000 lbfor HS20/H20
=13,500 lb for HS15/H15 lane loading
=18,000 lb for HS20/H20 lane loading
*Note: For lane loading, Moment due to UDL has to be added.
both UDL & concentrated load is distributed within 2E.

Analysis
• Calculate Impact Factor.
I=( ) < 0.3
• Moment due to Impact, MI= I*MLL
• Total Moment,Mtotal = MDL+MLL +MI
Design
• Allowable concrete compressive stress,
fc= 0.45 f’c
• Allowable stress in steel, fs= 0.40 fy
• n= =9 ; r=
• k= ; j= 1-
• Check ‘d’ with the following formula for WSD.
M = fc kj bd2
Adjust slab thickness if needed.

Design
• Determine required steel , As =
• Provide Distribution reinforcement.
For main reinforcement parallel to traffic:

100/ percent of main As (max. 50%)
For main reinforcement perpendicular to traffic:

220/ percent of main As (max. 67%)
Design
• Provide Temperature reinforcement.
According to AASHTO 8.20.1, As= 1/8 in2 /ft
need to be provided under all exposed surfaces.
• Check for shear and bond. Not necessary for
slabs designed for bending in this method.
• Check for minimum reinforcemnet.
fr= 7.5 ; Icr = bh3 /12
frIcr
Mcr =
/
Check if Mdesign is more than 1.2 Mcr . If so, ok.

Edge Beam
• Three alternative suggestions for edge beam-
a)a slab section additionally reinforced
b)a beam integral & deeper than the slab
c)an integrally reinforced section of
slab & curb
Edge Beam Analysis

• Assume width of the beam, b .
• Provide a curb 10” high.
• Calculate wDL for self weight & railing.
Self weight includes slab and curb weight.
Weight of railing is assumed to be 15 lb/ft.
• Compute DL & LL Moments.
MDL = wDLL2/8 lb-ft
MLL = 0.10 P*S lb-ft [P= P15 or, P20 ]
Design moment, Mtotal = MDL + MLL

Edge Beam Design

• Design is to be done as previously explained
WSD method for beam design.
• Apply Bar cutoff requirements according to
ACI code. (reference: chapter 5, Nilson)
Assignment
• Slab design
• Curb/Edge beam design (with bar cutoff)
Drawings
1. Longitudinal Section of Slab,
2. Tranverse section of Slab (with edge beam detailing)
3. Long section & Cross section of edge beam (with
bar cutoff)
4. Plan of Slab Bridge showing reinforcement
distribution.
[Drawing should be submitted in tracing paper with
proper scale]
