Bridge Loading ar per BS 5400 part 2 version 2002

Bridge loading

1. LOAD COMBINATION (BS5400)

2. DEAD LOAD

3. Dead load is taken as self weight of structure member. Volume x Density Can be manually calculated or calculated using analysis software

4. For example, Moment of Beam self weight & slab self weigth on these table are manually calculated using WL 2 /8, max moment for simply supported condition. W is taken as beam area or slab area x by concrete density and L is the support to support length. For moment cause by parapet & premix, it is model using STAAD.

5. WIND LOAD

6. TEMPERATURE LOAD

7. Young Modulus = Stress / Strain. Therefore :

8. TRAFFIC LOAD (HA & HB LOADING)

9. COLLISION LOAD

10. CENTRIFUGAL LOAD

11. LONGITUDINAL HA & HB LOAD (TRACTION LOAD)

12. ACCIDENTAL SKIDDING LOAD
