    This document contains calculations to determine loads on a railway box culvert, including: - Dead loads from structure self-weight, wearing coat, fill, ballast, and rails - Earth pressures using active and static coefficients - Surcharge loads from dead and live loads above and below the structure Values for soil density, earth pressure coefficients, load intensities, and ordinates at the top and bottom of the box are calculated.

    Height of fill at top of box = 4.

    35 m
    Height of earth at bottom of box = 12.55 m
    Density of soil = 2 Mt/m3
    CALCULATION OF LOADS
    Number of tracks = 1
    Value of cofficient of active earth pressure 'Ka' = 0.251
    Value of cofficient of static earth pressure 'Ks' = 0.426

    DEAD LOAD CALCULATIONS


    1. SELF WEIGHT OF BOX.

    Density of concrete = 2.5 Mt/m3

    2. DEAD LOAD OVER Top MEMBER.

    Thickness of Wearing Coat = 0.15 m


    Density of Wearing Coat = 2.2 Mt/m3
    Dead Load of Wearing coat over Top member = 0.33 Mt/m
    Dead load of FILL blanket = 8 Mt/m
    3. DEAD LOAD OVER Bottom MEMBER.

    3.7

    0.738 m

    3.086

    a). Dead load of rails/m

    No. of rails = 2
    Weight of each rail = 0.062 Mt/m
    Dead load of rails = 0.124 Mt/m

    b). Dead load of sleeper/m

    Sleeper density per meter run = 1.6 sleepers/meter


    3
    Volume of sleeper = 0.145 m
    3
    Unit weight of concrete = 2.5 Mt/m
    Dead load of sleeper/m = 0.58 Mt/m
    c). Dead load of ballast/m

    3
    Unit weight of ballast = 2 Mt/m
    Height of ballast = 0.336 m
    3
    Volume of ballast/m = 1.299648 m /m
    Dead load of ballast/m = 2.599296 Mt/m
    Total dead load of formation/m = 3.303296 Mt/m
    But minimum value of dead load/m = 6.8 Mt/m

    Dead load of ballast over a width of 1m,


    = (Max(Total DL of ballast OR 6.8Mt)/3.086m )= 2.2035 Mt/m

    d). Dead Load of FILL or Blanket incl. boulder layer/m


    3
    Unit weight of blanket material for meter run = 2 Mt/m
    Height of fill = 0 m
    Dead load of FILL blanket = 0 Mt/m

    Therefore total dead load intensity = 2.20 Mt/m

    4. EARTH PRESSURE (Active case)


    Value of ka = 0.251
    Height of earth fill at top of box = 4.35 m
    Height of earth fill at bottom of box = 12.55 m

    Ordinate at top of box = ka x Υ x h1 = 2.182 Mt/m


    Ordinate at bottom of box = ka x Υ x h2 = 6.296 Mt/m

    4.35

    2.182384 2.182384
    12.55

    6.296 6.296
    5. EARTH PRESSURE (Static case)
    Value of ks = 0.426
    Height of earth fill at top of box = 4.35 m
    Height of earth fill at bottom of box = 12.55 m

    Ordinate at top of box = ks x Υ x h1 = 3.71 Mt/m


    Ordinate at bottom of box = ks x Υ x h2 = 10.703 Mt/m

    4.35

    3.71 3.709885
    12.55

    10.703 10.703

    6. Dead load surcharge (Active case)


    Dead load surcharge 'V' 0.33 Mt/m

    Width of uniform distribution of surcharge at form. Level, B = 1 m


    Therefore, width of uniform distribution of surcharge top, B' = 7.35 m
    Dead load surcharge V= 0.33 Mt/m
    Live load surcharge, S = 0 Mt/m
    Ordinate at top of box= ka x V = 0.083 Mt/m
    Ordinate at top of box= ka x V = 0.083 Mt/m

    0.083 0.083

    0.083 0.083
    7. Dead load surcharge (Static case)
    Dead load surcharge V= 0.33 Mt/m
    Live load surcharge, S = 0 Mt/m
    Ordinate at top of box= ks x V = 0.141 Mt/m
    Ordinate at top of box= ks x V = 0.141 Mt/m

    0.141 0.141

    0.141 0.141

    AS per IRC 6

    8. Live load+DL surcharge (Active case), one side only.


    Dead load surcharge V= 0.33 Mt/m
    Live load surcharge, S = 2.4 Mt/m

    Ordinate at top of box= ka x (S+V) = 0.685 Mt/m


    Ordinate at top of box= ka x (S+V) = 0.685 Mt/m

    0.685 1.370

    0.685 0
    9. Live load+DL surcharge (Static case), one side only.
    Dead load surcharge V= 0.33 Mt/m
    Live load surcharge, S = 2.4 Mt/m

    Ordinate at top of box= ks x (S+V) = 1.164 Mt/m


    Ordinate at top of box= ks x (S+V)/(B+H) = 1.164 Mt/m

    1.164 2.328

    1.164 0

    10. Live load+DL surcharge (Active case), both sides.


    Dead load surcharge V= 0.33 Mt/m
    Live load surcharge, S = 2.4 Mt/m

    Ordinate at top of box= ka x (S+V) = 0.685 Mt/m


    Ordinate at top of box= ka x (S+V)/(B+H) = 0.685 Mt/m

    0.685 0.685

    0.685 0.685
    11. Live load+DL surcharge (Static case), both sides.
    Dead load surcharge V= 0.33 Mt/m
    Live load surcharge, S = 2.4 Mt/m

    Ordinate at top of box= ks x (S+V) = 1.164 Mt/m


    Ordinate at top of box= ks x (S+V)/(B+H) = 1.164 Mt/m

    1.164 1.164

    1.164 1.164

    12. Live load surcharge on Bottom member

    Live load surcharge due to 25 t Railway Loading, S = 13.7 Mt for 3m width of uniform
    distribution at formation level

    LL surcharge per unit loaded length = 4.57 t/m
