Base Projection
2.0 Load Calculations for the Box Structure
2.1 Dead Load
Self weight of the structure has been calculated directly in STAAD file by the comment "SELFWEIGHT -1".
2.2 Super Imposed Dead Load
2.2.1 Top Slab
Wearing coat thickness
Ht of fill (Thickness of W.C / P.C.C / pavement layers)
Load (UDL) on top slab = 0.065*22
Wt of Crash barrier per meter
Total UDL load due to S.I Dead Load
Height of soil on projected portion of base slab
Wt of soil on the projected portion of base slab
2.3 Earth Pressure
Thickness of top slab
Height of top haunch
Clear height between top & bottom slab
Height of bottom haunch
Thickness of bottom slab
2.4 Live Load Surcharge
Equivalent height
Uniform Intensity of loading = 0.5 * 1.2 * 20
2.5 Braking Load
Carriageway Live Load
Width of the box
Braking Load = 0.2 * 400 / 12
2.6 Additional pressure on edge 1m strip due to eccentricity of Live Load
Live Load
Width of culvert (parallel to traffic direction)
Width of culvert (perpendicular to traffic direction)
Distance of CG of load from outer edge of box culvert
Transverse Moment
Section Modulus of box in transverse direction
Upward UDL on edge 1m strip
2.2.2 Bottom Slab
Thickness of earth fill
Load (UDL) on bottom slab = 0.3 * 20
