FOUNDATION DESIGN
Piled Foundations:
General descriptions of pile types there is a large Variety of types of pile used for foundations
work. The choice depends on the environmental and ground conditions, the presence or
absence of groundwater. The function of the pile, i.e. whether compression, uplift or lateral
loads are to be carried, the desired speed of construction and consider ration of relative cost.
The ability of the pile to resist aggressive substances or organisms in the ground or in
surrounding water must also is considered. In BS 8004, pile is grouped into three categories:
• Large displacement of pile: these include all solid piles, including timber and precast
concrete and steel or concrete tubes closed at the lower end by a shoe or plug, which
• Small displacement piles: these include rolled steel sections, open-ended tubes and
• Replacement plies: these are formed by boring or other methods of excavation; the
bore hole may be lined with a asking or tube that is either ft in place or extracted as
Driven and cast-in-place piles: The are widely used in the displacement pile group. A
tube closed at its lower end by a detaches hoe or by a plug of gravel or dry concrete is
driven to the de sire denotation. Steel reinforcement is lowered down the tube and the
latter is the is the withdrawn during or after placing the concrete. These types have the
advantages that: (1) the length can be varied readily to suit variation in the level of the
bearing stratum; (2) the dose den excludes ground water; (3) an enlarged base can be
formed by hammering out the concrete placed at the toe; (4) the rein force mint is
required only for the function of the pile as a foundation element,i.e, not from
concede rations of lifting and driving as for the precast concrete pile; and (5) the noise
and vibration are not sever when the piles are driven by a drop hammer operating
within the drive tube. Driven and cast-in-place piles may not be suitable for very soft
soil conditions where the newly placed concrete can be squeezed inwards as the drive
tube is withdrawn causing ‘necking’ of the pile shaft, nor is the uncased shaft suitable
for ground where water is encountered under artesian head which was has out the
cement from the unset concrete. These problems can be overcome by providing a
permanent casing. Ground have can damage adjacent piles before the concrete has
hardened, and heaved piles cannot easily be redriven. However, this problem can be
of placing the concrete. The latter is delayed until pile driving has proceeded to a
distance of at least 6.5 pilr are limited by thr ability of the driving rigs to extract the
drive tube and they cannot be installed in very large diameters. They are unsuitable
for unsuitable for river or marine works unless specially adapted for extending them
The ultimate load-carrying of a pile is given by a simple equation as the sum of the load
carried at the pile point plus point the total frictional resistance (skin friction) drived from the
Qu= QP+Qs
Where
Qu = ultimate pile capacity
PILE GROUPS:
Pile groups are used to transmit the structure load to the soil. A pile cap is
constructed over group pile. The pile group can be contact with the ground, or well above the
ground.
When the pile is place close to each other, a reasonable assumption is that the stress
transmitted BT the piles to thr soil overlap, reducing the load-bearing capacity of piles.
Ideally, the pile in group should be spaced so that the load- bearing capacity of the group
should not be less than the sum of bearing capacity of the individual piles. In ordinary
The efficiency of the load bearing capacity of a group pile may be defined as
ɳ= Q g (u) / (∑Qu)

substructure.
structure. Girders often have an I-beam cross section composed of two load-bearing flanges
separated by a stabilizing web. In our case girder where prostheses diggers. Girders where
casted at site.
Pier and Pier Cap:
• The base of pile may rest directly over firm round or it may be superstructure on piles.
• Center line of pile normally coincides with the center line of the superstructure. The
dimension of the tap of pier depends on distance between girder (longitudinal girder)
and distance required to provide for the expansions of girder, size of bearing etc.
Pedestal:
Pedestal is made of RCC and connecting to pier cap. The grade of concrete used for pedestal
Bearing is a component of a bridge which typically provides a resting surface between bridge
piers and the bridge deck. The purpose of a bearing is a allow controlled movement and
thereby reduce the stresses involved. Movement could be thermal expansion or contraction,
or movement from other source such as seismic activity. There are several types of bridge
bearings which are used depending on a number of different factored including the bridge
span. The oldest form of bridge bearing is simple two plates resting on top of each other. A
common form of modern bridge bearing is the elastomeric bridge bearing. Another types of

Functions of abutment
The primary function of cross girder is to support the deck slab. The girders may however
need to perform secondary function of preventing the slab from bucking in compression.
Typically these are the transverse beams (also very strong/stiff) which are provided for sverse
stiffness. This transverse diaphragm will make sure that if you have multiple main girders,

prevent vehicles from colliding with dangerous obstadess such as boulders, well
or large storm drains. Crash barriers are also installs at the road side to prevent
errant vehicles from traversing steep slopes. Crash barriers are normally
with crash barriers. They should only be installed where a collision with barrier
is likely to be less severe than collision with the hazard behind it.
FIXED OR MOVABLE BRIDGES
Most bridges are fixed bridges, meaning they have no moving parts and stay in one place
until they fail or are demolished. Temporary bridges, such as Bailey bridges, are designed to
be assembled, and taken apart, transported to a different site, and re-used. They are important
in military engineering, and are also used to carry traffic while an old bridge is being rebuilt.
Movable bridges are designed to move out of the way of boats or other kinds of traffic, which
would otherwise be too tall to fit. These are generally electrically powered.[citation needed]
DOUBLE-DECKED BRIDGES
The double-decked George Washington Bridge, connecting New York City to Bergen
County, New Jersey, USA, is the world's busiest bridge, carrying 102 million vehicles
annually.
Double-decked (or double-decker) bridges have two levels, such as the George Washington
Bridge, connecting New York City to Bergen County, New Jersey, USA, as the world's
busiest bridge, carrying 102 million vehicles annually; truss work between the roadway levels
provided stiffness to the roadways and reduced movement of the upper level when the lower
level was installed three decades after the upper level. The Tsing Ma Bridge and Kap Shui
Mun Bridge in Hong Kong have six lanes on their upper decks, and on their lower decks
there are two lanes and a pair of tracks for MTR metro trains. Some double-decked bridges
only use one level for street traffic; the Washington Avenue Bridge in Minneapolis reserves
its lower level for automobile and light rail traffic and its upper level for pedestrian and
the Prince Edward Viaduct has five lanes of motor traffic, bicycle lanes, and sidewalks on its
upper deck; and a pair of tracks for the Bloor–Danforth subway line on its lower deck. The
western span of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge also has two levels.
Robert Stephenson's High Level Bridge across the River Tyne in Newcastle upon Tyne,
completed in 1849, is an early example of a double-decked bridge. The upper level carries a
railway, and the lower level is used for road traffic. Other examples include Britannia Bridge
over the Menai Strait and Craigavon Bridge in Derry, Northern Ireland. The Oresund Bridge
between Copenhagen and Malmö consists of a four-lane highway on the upper level and a
pair of railway tracks at the lower level. Tower Bridge in London is different example of a
double-decked bridge, with the central section consisting of a low level bascule span and a
VIADUCTS
A viaduct is made up of multiple bridges connected into one longer structure. The longest and
some of the highest bridges are viaducts, such as the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway and
Millau Viaduct.
A three-way bridge has three separate spans which meet near the center of the bridge. The
bridge appears as a "T" or "Y" when viewed from above. Three-way bridges are extremely
rare. The Tridge, Margaret Bridge, and Zanesville Y-Bridge are examples.
A bridge can be categorized by what it is designed to carry, such as trains, pedestrian or road
traffic, a pipeline or waterway for water transport or barge traffic. An aqueduct is a bridge
that carries water, resembling a viaduct, which is a bridge that connects points of equal
height. A road-rail bridge carries both road and rail traffic. A bridge can carry overhead

The materials used to build the structure are also used to categorize bridges. Until the end of
the 18th Century, bridges were made out of timber, stone and masonry. Modern bridges are
currently built in concrete, steel, fiber reinforced polymers (FRP), stainless steel or
combinations of those materials. Living bridges have been constructed of live plants such as

AESTHETICS
Most bridges are utilitarian in appearance, but in some cases, the appearance of the bridge
can have great importance. Often, this is the case with a large bridge that serves as an
entrance to a city, or crosses over a main harbor entrance. These are sometimes known as
signature bridges. Designers of bridges in parks and along parkways often place more
importance to aesthetics, as well. Examples include the stone-faced bridges along the Taconic
To create a beautiful image, some bridges are built much taller than necessary. This type,
often found in east-Asian style gardens, is called a Moon bridge, evoking a rising full moon.
Other garden bridges may cross only a dry bed of stream washed pebbles, intended only to
convey an impression of a stream. Often in palaces a bridge will be built over an artificial
bridges cross a sinuous waterway in an important courtyard of the Forbidden City in Beijing,
China. The central bridge was reserved exclusively for the use of the Emperor, Empress, and
their attendants.
BRIDGE MAINTENANCE
monitoring every three to six months, a simple test or inspection every two to three years and
a major inspection every six to ten years. In Europe, the cost of maintenance is higher than
spending on new bridges. The lifetime of welded steel bridges can be significantly extended
by aftertreatment of the weld transitions . This results in a potential high benefit, using
BRIDGE FAILURES
The failure of bridges is of special concern for structural engineers in trying to learn lessons
vital to bridge design, construction and maintenance. The failure of bridges first assumed
national interest during the Victorian era when many new designs were being built, often
In the United States, the National Bridge Inventory tracks the structural evaluations of all
BRIDGE MONITORING
There are several methods used to monitor the stress on large structures like bridges. The
most common method is the use of an accelerometer, which is integrated into the bridge
while it is being built. This technology is used for long-term surveillance of the bridge.
the Doppler effect (Doppler shift). A laser beam from a Laser Doppler Vibrometer is directed
at the point of interest, and the vibration amplitude and frequency are extracted from the
Doppler shift of the laser beam frequency due to the motion of the surface. The advantage of
this method is that the setup time for the equipment is faster and, unlike an accelerometer,
Additionally, this method can measure specific points on a bridge that might be difficult to
access.
CONCLUSION
Congratulations, you have succeeded in expanding your knowledge about bridges and their
construction process. I hope you have gained valuable experience from completing this
Two designs for the bridge to be constructed on the Calder Freeway across Slaty Creek have
been presented and discussed in this report. Design 1 is a super-T beam bridge and Design 2
is a simple composite I girder bridge. Both designs incorporate round piers on piled
foundations, which are used because the soil conditions are unknown and possibly unstable.
Design 2 has some advantages because it is made of steel and thus has longer spans and
fewer piers.
