Abstract

The unprecedented and rapid growth of bridge design practices & concrete construction in developed & developing countries is the driving force. Analysis & Design of Bridge Super Structure for Reinforced Concrete I-section has been carried out as per IRC 112-2011 “Concrete Road Bridges (Plain, Reinforced & Prestressed)” which is based on limit state method. Now-a-days the processing power & storage capacity of computers has increased by a factor of over 1000 & analysis software has improved greatly in sophistication and ease of use. Inspite of the increases in computing power, bridge deck analysis methods have not changed and Grillage Analysis remains the standard procedure for the most bridges deck. In this study has been carried for RCC I-girder for two lane carriageway width as per IRC specifications. The study also carried for the consideration of with & without footpath loads on bridge deck. Determination of quantity of materials for RCC super structure will be carried out. For the analysis, study is carried using STAAD Pro software and design excel sheets will be develop as per IRC recommendations.
