1. Design 235mm interior slab with 75mm thk asphalt overlay of a 21m RCDG Bridge with 2.45m Girder to Girder Spacing using the minimum compressive strength and steel yield strength as per AASHTO. Consider both Impact Factor of 1.33 and 1.75 Use the pedestrian with bikes for live load as per AASHTO. For unit weight use the ff: Reinforced Concrete – 24kN/m^3 Steel – 77kN/m^3 Wearing Surface – 22kN^3 For Main Bars use 16mm and 12mm for Distribution and Temperature Bars

answer case 2
Megajaya Sein. Bhd. is a consulting company specialized in analyzing and designing bridges inAlar Setar, Kedah. This company has been assigned to analyze and propose a bridge trussdesign to cross Sungai Kechi! in Yan, Kedah for Malayan Railways Limited. Figure 3 showsthe cross-section of the Sungai Kechil. The required clear span for the proposed bridge truss is6 m length from A to B. The bridge truss was subjected to a maximum load of 132 kN/m alongthe bridge truss span and a maximum length of the truss member is not more than 2.5 m. (a) Sketch a bridge truss that is internally and externally stable and the maximum lengthof the truss, the member is not more than 2.5 m? (b) Calculate the support reactions at A and B by assuming pinned support at A and rollersupport at B. (c) Determine the compression and tension force for each bridge truss member usingMethod of Joint.( d) Check any THREE (3) bridge truss member using Method of Section for validationpurpose.

Situation 1. A prestressed deck-girder bridge is to be constructed to cross a river stream as shown in Figure 1a. The bridge is to be designed to have a 15.6-m effective span and a 6.0-m clear width supporting a reinforced concrete slab that has a thickness of 150 mm with a 20 mm wearing surface (0.72 kPa) on top of the slab (refer to Figure 1b). The concrete slab is to be supported by three concrete girders with dimensions of 400 x 800 mm. Assume that the bridge span is a simply supported beam and unit weight of concrete is equal to 23.5 kN/m3. Interior girder dead load calculations: 1. Calculate the total uniformly distributed dead load (in kN/m) that the interior girder is carrying.
