Calculation for Expansion Gap

Length of structure contributing expansion = 30 m


Max temperature 44 oC
Min temperature 10 oC
Temperature rise 17 oC
Temperature fall 27 oC

Coeff. of Thermal expansion, a = 1.00E-05 / deg. Centrigrade


Load Factor for temperature, Ytu = 1.2
Shrinkage coefficient = 0.0005
Creep coefficient 0.00004
Ec of concrete 31000 Mpa
conrtraction due to temperature
Dt = L * a * Temp Range * Ytu

= 6.12 mm

Contraction due to shrinkage


Dsh 15.000 mm

Contraction due to Creep


Dcr 1.200 mm

Expansion due to temperature


Dt = L * a * Temp Range * Ytu

= 6.120 mm

Total Movement
Total contraction 22 mm
Total expansion 6.120 mm

Total movement 28 mm

consider 80 mm expansion joint


Calculation for Expansion Gap

Length of structure contributing expansion = 315 m


Max temperature 44 oC
Min temperature 10 oC
Temperature rise 17 deg. Centrigrade
Temperature fall 27 deg. Centrigrade
Ambient tempearture 17 deg. Centrigrade
Coeff. of Thermal expansion, a = 1.00E-05 / deg. Centrigrade
Load Factor for temperature, Ytu = 1.2
Shrinkage coefficient = 0.0005 ceb-FIP MODEL CODE 2010
Creep coefficient 0.00004
Ec of concrete 4800*(fc')^2
conrtraction due to temperature 37181 Mpa
Dt = L * a * Temp Range * Ytu

= 102 mm

Contraction due to shrinkage


Dsh 158 mm

Contraction due to Creep


Dcr 13 mm

Expansion due to temperature


Dt = L * a * Temp Range * Ytu

= 64 mm

Lateral Delfection due to Braking Force+Friction force


Horizontal force 8934 KN for substructure/foundation

From MIDAS model Deflection at pier top


Due to all vertical loads+frcition+Braking force
D= 44 mm

Depth of fixity -51.1 m


Pilecap top 3.1 m

Scour depth -39.817 m

Length between 39.817 to 51.117 m is completely embedded in good soil.

Hence deflection would be less than 45 mm


Total Movement
Total contraction 317 mm
Total expansion 109 mm
Hence consider joint with a total gap of

minimum 320
maximum 130
Calculation for bearing movement

Length of structure contributing expansion = 200 m


Max temperature 44 oC
Min temperature 10 oC
Temperature rise 17 deg. Centrigrade
Temperature fall 27 deg. Centrigrade

Coeff. of Thermal expansion, a = 1.00E-05 / deg. Centrigrade


Load Factor for temperature, Ytu = 1.2
Shrinkage coefficient = 0.0005 ceb-FIP MODEL CODE 2010
Creep coefficient 0.00004
Ec of concrete 31000 Mpa
conrtraction due to temperature
Dt = L * a * Temp Range * Ytu

= 6.48E+01 mm

Contraction due to shrinkage


Dsh 100.000 mm

Contraction due to Creep


Dcr 8.000 mm

Expansion due to temperature


Dt = L * a * Temp Range * Ytu

= 41 mm

Total Movement
Total contraction 173 mm
Total expansion 41 mm
Calculation for bearing movement transverse direction

Length of structure contributing expansion = 6m


Max temperature 44 oC
Min temperature 10 oC
Temperature rise 17 deg. Centrigrade
Temperature fall 27 deg. Centrigrade

Coeff. of Thermal expansion, a = 1.00E-05 / deg. Centrigrade


Load Factor for temperature, Ytu = 1.2
Shrinkage coefficient = 0.0005 ceb-FIP MODEL CODE 2010
Creep coefficient 0.00004
Ec of concrete 31000 Mpa
conrtraction due to temperature
Dt = L * a * Temp Range * Ytu

= 1.94E+00 mm

Contraction due to shrinkage


Dsh 0.000 mm

Contraction due to Creep


Dcr 0.240 mm

Expansion due to temperature


Dt = L * a * Temp Range * Ytu

= 1 mm

Total Movement
Total contraction 2 mm
Total expansion 1 mm

Total movement 3 mm

Hence consider joint with a total gap of mm at P17/P19
