Modulus of elasticity,

Where:

f'c in ksi
wc = unit weight of nonreinforced concrete = 0.145 kcf
K1 = correction factor for source of aggregate
= 1.0 unless determined by physical testing
Modulus of rupture: For minimum reinforcement,
  For all other calculations,
 is in units of ksi

Steel modulus of elasticity, = 29000 ksi

751.35.2 Design

751.35.2.1 Limit States and Factors

In general, each component shall satisfy the following equation:

Where:

= Total factored force effect
= Force effect
= Load modifier
= Load factor
= Resistance factor
= Nominal resistance
= Factored resistance


Limit States

The following limit states shall be considered for abutment design:

STRENGTH – I
STRENGTH – III
STRENGTH – IV
STRENGTH – V
SERVICE – I
FATIGUE
EXTREME EVENT - II

See LRFD Table 3.4.1-1 and LRFD 3.4.2 for Loads and Load Factors applied at each given limit state.


Resistance factors

STRENGTH limit states, see LRFD 5.5.4.2 and LRFD 6.5.4.2
For all other limit states, = 1.00


Load Modifiers

751.35.2.2 Loads

Dead Loads

Loads from stringers, girders, etc. shall be applied as concentrated loads applied at the centerline of bearing. Loads from concrete slab spans shall be applied as uniformly distributed loads.


Live Loads

Loads from stringers, girders, etc. shall be applied as concentrated loads applied at the centerline of bearing. Dynamic load allowance (impact) should be included for the design of the beam. No dynamic load allowance should be included for foundation design.

For wings with detached wing walls, no portion of the bridge live load shall be distributed to the detached wall. The detached wing wall shall be designed as a retaining wall. The weight of the safety barrier curb on top of the wall shall be included in the dead load.


Collision

Collision shall be designed if abutments are located within a distance of 30.0 feet to the edge of roadway, or within a distance of 50.0 feet to the centerline of a railway track and conditions do not qualify for exemptions given in EPG 751.2.2.6.

751.35.2.3 General Design Assumptions

Beam

The beam shall be assumed continuous over supports at centerline of piles.

One half of the dead load of the approach slab shall be included in the beam design.


Wing

The standard horizontal reinforcement shown below was designed for soil pressure, EH, live load surcharge, LS and a railing collision force, CT for Extreme Limit State II Load Combination.


751.35 general design assumptions-pressure diagram for wing.gif


The minimum steel placed horizontally in wings shall be as shown in the figure below.

751.35.2.4 End Bent Analysis

The following steps shall be used to design integral end bents.


Step 1 – Obtain loads from superstructure

The live load reactions (LL), dead load of structural components (DC), and dead load of future wearing surface (DW) will be needed to design the end bents. Strength I Load Combination will be used to design the reinforcement.


Step 2 – Design bearing pads or girder chairs

From the loads obtained in Step 1, design the bearing pads or girder chairs according to EPG 751.11.


Step 3 – Find beam cap width

The standard beam cap width will be 3’-0”. However, if the bearing pad size required exceeds the allowable edge distance, the beam cap width may be widened. The bearing pads shall be centered over the centerline of pile location, which is 15” away from the stream or crossing face of the cap.


Step 4 – Design longitudinal steel in beam cap

If the centerline of bearing is 12” or less on the centerline of piles, use 4 - #6 bars at the top and bottom of the beam cap. Otherwise, the ultimate moment used for designing the longitudinal steel shall be approximated by the following equation and figure. The loads shall be factored according to the Strength I Load Combination.

Where:

= maximum interior girder reaction of factored superstructure loads, kips.
= pile spacing, ft.
= factored substructure loads equally distributed across the beam, k/ft.


751.35 basic assumption for beam analysis.gif

Basic Assumption for Beam Analysis


A minimum of 4 - #6 Bars shall be used for the longitudinal steel in the beam cap. If more steel is required, increase bar size and keep the number of bars to 4. For example, use 4 - #7 bars instead of 5 - #6 bars.

The minimum reinforcement and bar spacing shall also be checked against the appropriate limits.


Step 5 – Design for number and size of pile

751.35.2.5 Beam Reinforcement Special Cases

SPECIAL CASE I

If centerline bearing is 12" or less on either side of centerline piles, for all piles (as shown below), use 4-#6 top and bottom and #4 at 12" cts. (stirrups), regardless of pile size.

751.35 beam reinforcement special case 1.gif


SPECIAL CASE II

When beam reinforcement is to be designed assuming piles to take equal force, design for negative moment in the beam over the interior piles.

751.35 circled 3.gif Provide a minimum of 8" cl. from outside edge of pile to face of beam. For pile greater than 14” wide (dia.), shifting pile centerline towards fill face is preferred based on structural considerations (eccentric load to pile). Otherwise, increase abutment beam width (1” increments) towards front face in order to meet 8” min. cl.

Example:

Pile size = 16”

Option I (preferred): Shift pile centerline 1” towards fill face and consider eccentric load to the pile.

Min. abutment width = 20”+16”=3’-0”

Option II: Increase beam width 1” towards front face.

Min. abutment width = 21”+16”=3’-1”

(*) Keep 1 1/2" Min. clear cover for a #6 bar reinforcement between approach notch and girder. Increase abutment beam width (1" increments) to get the 1 1/2" clear cover if necessary.
