Approach Slab

This document summarizes the design of an approach slab for the Kapolei Bridge project. Key parameters for the slab design are provided, including material properties, loadings, and design limit states. The bottom and top reinforcement are then designed to resist flexure and cracking. The bottom reinforcement consists of #8 bars spaced at 8 inches. The top transverse and longitudinal reinforcement consists of #5 bars spaced at 12 inches. All reinforcement quantities and spacings are checked against code requirements.

Subject: Design of Approach Slab

1. Design Parameters
Approach slab thickness, h = 16 in
Thickness of wearing surface, tws = 2 in
Length of approach slab, L = 20 ft
Concrete cover at top of slab, Cctop = 2.5 in
Concrete cover at bottom of slab, Ccbot = 1.5 in
Unit weight of concrete, gconc = 0.15 kips/ft3
Compressive strength of concrete, fc' = 3 ksi
Specified yield strength of steel, fy = 60 ksi
Modulus of elasticity of steel, Es = 29000 ksi
Modulus of elasticity of concrete, Ec = 3321 ksi
Modular ratio, n = 8.73 say
Exposure factor, ge = 1.00
Flexural and tension resistance factor, f = 0.90

2. Loadings
Dead loads:
selfweight, wDC = 0.200 kips/ft
Wearing surface, wDW = 0.025 kips/ft
Dead load bending moments from deck load: MDC = WDC*L^2 / 8
= 10.000 kips-ft
Dead load bending moments from future wearing surface load: MDW = WDW*L^2 / 8
= 1.250 kips-ft

Live loads:
Live load distribution width:
For two or more lanes,
E = 84 + 1.44(L1W1)0.5 ≤ 12.0W/NL (Eq.4.6.2.3-2) = 133.88 in
= 11.16 ft
Number of lanes, NL = 4
Physical edge to edge width of bridge, W = 62.50 ft
modified span length, L1 = 20.00 ft
modified edge to edge width W1 = 60.00 ft
Lane Load, Mmax = wL2/8 = 32.00 kips-ft
Truck Load, Mmax = 104.80 kips-ft
Total Live Load moment = 15.36 kips-ft

3. Flexural design
Strength I Limit State Load
Positive design moment:
Mr = 1.25 MDC + 1.5 MDW + 1.75 MLL = 41.26 kips-ft
Service I Limit State Load
Positive design moment:
Ms = MDC + MDW + MLL = 26.61 kips-ft

4. Bottom Reinforcement (Main Reinf. Parallel to traffic)


Flexural Strength Check
Main bar at bottom of slab = # 8
diameter of bar, db = 1.00 in
Area of bar, Ab = 0.79 in2
Effective depth at bottom, dsbot = 14.000 in
spacing of # 8 bars, s = 8.0 in
Max spacing of reinforcing bars, smaller of: (5.10.3.2)
1.5h, 18 in = 18.0 in
s < s max, OK!
As(bot) = Ab * (12/s) = 1.19 in2
a = As(bot)*fy / 0.85f'cb = 2.32 in
Mn = As(bot)fy(d-a/2) = 76.07 kips-ft
ØMn = = 68.46 kips-ft
ØMn > Mr, OK!
Crack Control Check
ρ = As/bd = 0.0071
k = √[(ρn) + 2ρn - ρn]
2
= 0.298
j = 1-k/3 = 0.901
fss = Ms / Asjd < 0.6fy = 21.38 ksi
fss < 0.6*fy, OK!
dc = Cctop + db/2 = 3.00 in
βs = 1 + (dc / 0.7(h-dc) (Eq.5.7.3.4-1) = 1.330
sreq ≤ (700ge)/(βsfss) - 2dc (Eq.5.7.3.4-1) = 18.63 in
s < sreq, OK!
Minimum Reinforcement
Section modulus, Sc = bh2/6 = 512.0 in3
Modulus of rupture, fr = 0.37√f'c (5.4.2.6) = 0.64 ksi
Cracking moment, Mr = minimum of 1.2Mcr,1.33Mr (5.7.3.3.2) = 32.81 kips-ft
1.2 Mcr = 1.2(frSc) (Eq.5.7.3.3.2-1) = 32.81 kips-ft
1.33 Mr = 54.87 kips-ft
ØMn > Mr, OK!

6. Bottom Transverse Reinforcement


For main reinforcement parallel to traffic:
Ast req = 100 / √S ≤ 50% (9.7.3.2) = 0.26 in2/ft
100 / √S = 22.36 %
Try
transverse reinforcement = # 5
spacing of transverse reinforcement, st = 12.0 in
Max spacing of reinforcing bars, smaller of: (5.10.3.2)
1.5h, 18 in = 18.0 in
st < st max, OK!
area of bar = 0.31 in2
area of bar provided / spacing, Ast = Ab(12/st) = 0.31 in2/ft
Ast > Ast req, OK!

7. Top Transverse and Longitudinal Reinforcement


As tempreq ≥ 1.30bh/2(b+h)fy (Eq.5.10.8-1) = 0.07 in2/ft
0.11 ≤ As tempreq ≤ 0.60 (Eq.5.10.8-2) = 0.11 in2/ft
For each face, Min. temp. As = 0.11 in2/ft
temperature reinforcement = # 5
spacing of transverse reinforcement, stemp = 12.0 in
max spacing, smaller of: (5.10.8)
3.0h, 18 in = 18.0 in
Stemp < S tempmax, OK!
area of bar = 0.31 in2
area of bar provided / spacing, Astemp = Ab(12/stemp) = 0.31 in2/ft
Astemp > As tempreq, OK!
