CE 4241 S4/D  MODULE 1 Part 1 1 BRIDGE DEFINITION: a structure built to span physical obstacles such as bodies of water, valleys and roads AASHTO definition: Any structure having an opening of not less than 6100mm that forms part of a highway or that is located over or under a highway 2 BRIDGE PURPOSE: Provide passage over an obstacle ❑ a KEY element in a TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM for 3 reasons: ❖ Controls capacity ❖ Cost per mile is expensive ❖ If bridge fails, transportation system fails 3 BRIDGE as KEY ELEMENT (a)controls capacity ✓ through volume and weight ✓ insufficient carriage width ❖ cause constriction to traffic flow ✓ Strength deficiency ❖ unable to carry heavy loads (i.e. trucks) ❖ Load limits will cause rerouting of truck traffic 4 BRIDGE as KEY ELEMENT (b) expensive cost per mile ❖A major investment ✓ Planned carefully for best used of funds ❖Cost is high compared to approach roadways ❖Balance must be achieved between handling future traffic volume and loads and the cost of heavier and wider bridge structure 5 BRIDGE as KEY ELEMENT (c) if the bridge fails, the transportation system fails ❖ When removed or not repaired/ replaced, the transportation system is restricted of its function ❖ Detours over routes not designed to handle increase volume ❖ Increase travel time and fuel expenses ❖ NORMALCY does not return until the bridge is repaired or replaced 6 BRIDGE as KEY ELEMENT Balance must be achieved between ✓ Handling future traffic volume ✓ Loads and ✓ Cost of heavier and wider structure Strength is the foremost consideration BUT should have measures to prevent deterioration 7 BRIDGE ❑A structural system that is always exposed ❑MAJOR CONCERNS for Design: ✓ temperature (thermal effect) ✓ Durability (strength) ✓ Cost (inspection and maintenance) ❑ always subjected to large moving and repetitive loads ❑ Fatigue is a primary concern ✓ accumulates damage ✓ results in cracking 8 BRIDGE ENGINEERING ❑ A field of (structural) engineering that deals with ❑ Surveying ❑ Plan, design, analysis ❑ Construction, management and ❑ Maintenance of bridges ❑ Bridge Engineers MUST ensure that their designs satisfy given design standard, being responsible to structural safety and serviceability 9 BRIDGE ENGINEERING ❑ Civil engineering disciplines involved: ❑ SURVEYING AND MAPPING ❑ For layout and grading of proposed site ❑ HIGHWAY DESIGN ❑ For the overpass and underpass alignment and geometry ❑ STRUCTURAL DESIGN ❑ For the superstructure and substructure elements ❑ GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING ❑ For pier and abutment foundations ❑ HYDRAULIC ENGINEERING ❑ For proper bridge span length and drainage of bridge site 10 CLASSIFICATIONS of BRIDGE Based on Span Length BASED ON inter-SPAN 1.
