Comparative Analysis of Railway Road Bridge for Broad Gauge and Meter Gauge Track

The popularity of steel bridge is increasing in these days due to its advantages. Road–rail bridges are bridges shared by road and rail lines. Road and rail may be segregated so that trains may operate at the same time as cars .The rail track can be above the roadway or vice versa with truss bridges. Road and rail may share the same carriageway so that road traffic must stop when the trains operate or operate together like a tram in a street. Track gauge is the spacing of the rails on a railway track and is measured between the inner faces of the load-bearing rails. The study of this paper is the manually design of Railway-road bridge in case of broad gauge and meter gauge track. The comparative parameter of the study is Load, Shear Force and bending moment. The study reveals that the Meter gauge railway track has less load, Shear Force and bending moment as compare to broad gauge railway track.
