The present norms have been used in designing the new permanent bridges and rehabilitation of existing ones (including underpasses, viaducts, overpasses and pedestrian bridges) and in designing the culverts in embankments on the railroads (with 1520 mm track), on underground railroads and tram lines, on motor roads (including intra-economy roads in kolkhozes, sovkhozes and other agricultural enterprises and organisations, roads to industrial enterprises), on the streets and roads of cities, villages and rural settlements. The norms have been used also in designing the combined bridges with traffic on them of highway and city road vehicles and trains of railroad or underground railroad, in designing the carrying structures of bascule bridge spans and pedestrian tunnels under railroads, highways and city roads. Bridges with spans above 33 m long on the industrial enterprises roads with traffic of very heavy trucks can be designed under these norms taking into consideration the requirements for loads and overall dimensions provided by technical assignments. These norms should be observed in designing the bridges and culverts that are intended for performance in any climatic conditions of the country and in regions of designed seismisity up to 9 seismic units inclusively. The present norms are not applied to design: - bridges on railway high-speed passenger lines (200 km/h and more); - mechanisms of bascule bridge spans; - bridges and culverts on in-site motor roads of lumbering and forestry enterprises (not connected to the highways and to water ways); - service trestles and galleries included into a complex of buildings and industrial structures.

1) BASIC CONCEPTS GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

1.1. *When designed new bridges and culverts and repaired the existing ones the following things should be observed: - requirements to provide reliable, durable and trouble-free performance of structures as well as safe and uniform road traffic, pedestrian safety and protection of labour force in periods of construction and operation; - trouble-free passage of possible floods and ice drift on water courses and besides that the requirements of navigation and timber floating on water ways; - design concepts ensuring economical consumption of materials, fuels and power resources, a decrease of cost and labour of construction and operation.; - simplicity, convenience and high pace of structure erection, wide application of mechanised and automatic devices, application of standard decisions and use of precast structures, members and materials corresponding to standards and technical requirements; - allowance of perspectives for development of traffic transport and highway network, reconstruction of the existing underground and above-ground utility lines and construction of the new ones, improvement and planning of populated areas, future development of lands for agriculture purposes; - measures on environment protection (including against water logging, thermokarst, erosion, icing, and other detrimental processes), on maintaining the ecological equilibrium and on conservation of fish reserves.

1.2. Basic technical concepts applied to when designed the new bridges and culverts and repaired the existing ones shall be confirmed by comparison of technical-economic indices of competitive variants.

Page 10: SNiP 2.05.03-84 Bridges and Culverts ENG

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 2

1.3. * The design work on repairing the bridges and culverts should take into consideration physical condition of bridges and culverts, load capacity of structures, duration and schedule of post-rehabilitation operation. When constructed the second lines the design work of railway bridges and culverts should take into consideration the structural features and experience service of structures on the existing line.

1.4. The bridges and culverts shall be designed as capital structures. It is prohibited to design: - wood culverts; - wooden bridges on ways and roads intended for carrying the hot materials (liquid iron steel, slag, etc.). Wooden bridges can be constructed :

a) on railway lines of common network of category below II (SNiP II-39-76) with approval of the Ministry of Communications, on railway lines of industrial enterprises with approval of the customer;

b) on highways of category below III (SNiP 2.05.02-85) with no limitation; c) on arterial streets of regional purpose (SNiP 2.07.01-89*) with approval of:

the city executive committee for the biggest, big , large-sized and middle-sized cities; the regional executive committee for small towns, settlements and rural populated areas;

d) on streets and roads of local purpose (SNiP 2.07.01-89* and SNiP 2.05.11-83) with no limitation.

When concrete or reinforced concrete piers are used for wooden bridges the piers design should take into consideration the replacement of wooden span structures by reinforced concrete span structures.

LOCATION OF BRIDGES AND CULVERTS 1.5. Choice of a place for bridge crossing, breakdown of the bridge into spans, designation of structure position in plan and section shall be performed taking into consideration the requirements of the road alignment (line) or accepted town planning concepts, constructional and operation indices of variants as well as fluvial, geological, hydrogeological, ecological, landscaping and other local conditions influencing on the technical-and-economic indices of the given part of the road (line). In choosing the place for bridge crossing through the navigable rivers it is desired, if possible: to locate bridge in perpendicular to water stream ( angularity not more than 10°) on straight parts with a stable bed, in places of narrow (poorly flooded) flood plain and far from crossovers at a distance not less than 1.5 of length of standard ship or raft make-up; to align the navigable span middle with an axis of the corresponding ship course taking into consideration possible fluvial changes and displacement during estimated service period; to ensure relative parallelism of an axis of ship course, water stream direction and planes of piers facing to the side of navigable spans; to accept an admissible deviation from parallelism of ship course and river stream direction not more than 10°; don’t permit an increase of water stream speed in the bed with design navigable level, that is a consequence of bridge crossing construction, more than 20% with water speed 2 m/s in natural conditions and 10% with water speed more than 2.4 m/s (with water speed above 2m/s to 2.4 m/s in natural conditions the percent of admitted average speed increase should be determined by interpolation); to design, as a rule, a streamlined cross section of the bridge pier within the flooding up to elevation of design navigable level.

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 3

1.6. Dimensions and number of culvert structures on crossing of water course shall be determined on the base of hydraulic calculations, in this case it is necessary to consider the consequent influence of the structure upon the environment. Passage of several water courses through one culvert structure should be confirmed, but in availability of permafrost soil, mud flow, loess soil or possibility of ice forming it is never allowed.

1.7. *. Railway bridges with ballast-mounted rail track, small and medium highway and city bridges1, as well as the culverts are allowed to be constructed on parts of the road (street) of any profile and plan approved for the road (street) under construction. Railway bridges with non-ballast roadway should be located on straight parts of the road, on horizontal grounds or slopes not steeper than 4‰. The mentioned bridges can be constructed on slopes more than 4‰ , and on the railroads of enterprises – on the curves in plan as well, only in availability of feasibility study. Wooden railway bridges with non-ballast roadway can be constructed on slopes up to 15‰ and on curves in plan with radius 250 m and more. The large bridge roadway longitudinal gradient should be not more than, in ‰, 30 for highway bridges; 40 for city bridges; 20 for all types of bridges with a wooden floor.

1.8. * Depth of fill over links or floor slabs of pipes (including pedestrian tunnels), as well as over bridge arches shall be taken not less than one indicated in Table 1*. ________________________________________________________________________ 1 Here and further bridges are classified as follows: small bridges are up to length 25 m, middle bridges are of a length above 25 to 100 m, large bridges are of a length above 100 m. Highway bridges (including city bridges) with a length less than 100 m but with spans more than 60 m are referred to the large bridges. The bridge length should be measured between shore piers ends (embedded boards), in this case transition slab length should not be included into the length of a bridge.

*Measurement from top of the pipe link (floor slab) or from upper point of arch to bottom of the rail - on railway roads, or to bottom of cast-in-place pavement courses - on motor roads. ** But not less than 0.8 m from top of the pipe link to surface of the pavement. *** But not less than 0.5 m to sub-grade edge level. Notes. Depth of fill over reinforced concrete pipes and pedestrian tunnels located within railway station can be accepted less than 1.0 m. In justified cases on streets and highways the depth of fill over pipes and closed chutes can be accepted not less than 0.5 m. In all cases when depth of fill is smaller, it shall be carried out the instructions of allowance for corresponding dynamic effect of live loads, refer to the item 2.22*.

BASIC REQUIREMENTS TO STRUCTURES 1.9. *. Basic sizes of span structures and piers of new bridges as well as of culverts shall be specified with observance of principles of modularity and unification in construction.. Standard designs of railway bridges and culverts should provide the opportunity to use these designs in construction of secondary lines and replacement of span structures on network in service. Designed spans or total length of span structures of highway and city bridges on straight parts of roads with piers vertical and perpendicular to a bridge axis shall be specified equal to 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 33 and 42 m and multiple to 21 m in case of more long spans. Mentioned sizes should be taken as a total length of sectional span structures: up to 42 m inclusive made of reinforced concrete and up to 33 m inclusive made of other materials. In all other cases as well as of span structures with through main trusses the design spans should correspond to mentioned sizes. Deviation from these sizes is permitted with feasibility study when designing: the bridges to be located near the existing ones; multiple-span underpasses through railway station tracks; wooden bridges with spans less than 9 m , as well as separate spans of complicated bridges (sectional , framed suspended and framed cantilevered ). When the structure includes standard members or standard parts the admissible deviations in geometrical dimensions established for them shall be taken into consideration. For precast members produced for the given structure of the bridge or culvert the design can establish own values of these deviations calculated in proper way.

1.10. Mass and sizes of precast structure members should be specified, as a rule, in terms of possibility to use all-construction and special cranes and trucks of series production when erected and transported.

1.11. Construction of deformation devices (bearing parts, hinges, expansion joints, equalizing devices, season equalising rails) and their position should ensure necessary freedom for inter-moving (linear, angle) of separate parts (members) of the structure. Design documents should include instructions how to install deformation devices taking into account the readiness of construction and the temperature during the closure of the structure in conformity with the requirements of item 2.27*.

1.12. Wing and bank protection works shall be constructed for bridge crossings if necessary to control the flow direction and to prevent erosions (washouts). Embankment wings shall be provided in case of flood-plain discharge less than 15% of rated one or when the average flow velocity under the bridge to the washout is more than 1 m/s, as well as in case of relevant situation features of crossing (pressed currents, river arm closure, etc.)

Page 13: SNiP 2.05.03-84 Bridges and Culverts ENG

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 5

Culverts and small bridges should provide, on the base of hydraulic calculations, the dredging, levelling and consolidation of beds, the devices preventing the accumulation of loads as well as the devices for damping the flow water velocity at inlet and outlet. When construction uses the concept of conservation of permafrost the erection of wing and bank protection works should not caused damage of conditions of ground water running, local water stagnation and other significant changes of domestic regime of water course, as well as change of condition of permafrost soils in the base.

1.13. Opening (and clear height) of culverts should be specified, as a rule, in m, not more than: 1.0 – for pipe (or distance between manholes in centre of tracks) up to 20 m long; 1.25 - for pipe 20 m long and more. Opening of culverts on motor roads lower than category II can be specified , in m: 1.0 - for pipe up to 30 m long; 0.75 - for pipe up to 15 m long; 0.5 - on slip roads with high-velocity channel arranged within the pipe (slope 10‰ and more),

and with a guard at the inlet. In reasonable cases, on streets and roads of local purpose as well as on irrigated lands, in villages and rural populated areas on highways of category lower than category II, with the approval of Motor Roads Ministries of the Republics it is allowed to apply culverts of opening 0.5 m with a pipe up to 15 m long with high-velocity channel arranged within the pipe (slope 10‰ and more) and with a guard at the inlet. It is permitted to accept 0.5 m opening for culverts on the intra-economy motor roads (as per SNiP 2.05.11-83) with a pipe 10 m long and less. Openings of culverts on common railroads and common highways in regions with mean ambient air temperature of the most cold five days below –40° C (with probability 0.92 as per SniP 2.01.01-82) shall be specified not less than 1.5 m not depending on a pipe length. Openings of culverts and small bridges can be enlarged for using them for pedestrian and cattle crossing and in availability of technical-and-economic feasibility study for motor road vehicles (low, narrow-grip agricultural machines), providing the relevant overall dimensions.

1.14. Culvert pipes should be designed, as a rule, for pressureless mode of operation. Culverts located on common railroads can work in half-pressure and pressure modes to pass only small discharge, and on all other roads to pass only computed discharge (see the item 1.25*). At this, the pipe heads and links should be fitted with foundations, and if necessary, with curtains. Besides that, pressure mode of operation should provide special inlet heads and should ensure watertightness of joints between the face ends of the links and foundation sections, as well as reliable consolidation of the bed, stability of the embankment against head and filtration. For culverts located in regions with mean ambient air temperature of the most cold five days below -40° C it is prohibited to provide half-pressure and pressure mode of operation, except the cases when culverts are laid on rocky ground.

1.15. Culverts, as a rule, shall be designed with inlet and outlet heads which shapes and sizes ensure calculated conditions of water flow and stability of an embankment surrounding the culvert. Steel corrugated pipes can be designed without heads. In this case the lower part of uncut pipe should protrude from the embankment at a level of its foot not less than 0.2 m, but the section of pipe with cut end should protrude from the embankment body not less than 0.5 m.

1.16. *It is prohibited to use culverts in availability of drift ice and drift wood as well as in places of possible mudflows and icing field.

DESIGN OF BRIDGES AND CULVERTS FOR WATER FLOW ACTION GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

1.25. *Bridges, culverts and flood-plain fills shall be calculated for water flow action, as a rule, by hydrographs and gage curves of designed floods. Besides that, the bridges, culverts and flood-plain fills on common railway roads shall be calculated by hydrographs and gage curves of designed floods conventionally called as the largest ones. At this, probabilities of exceeding the designed floods and the largest ones shall be accepted the same with given in Table 3* probabilities of exceeding the maximum flows of corresponding floods. When hydrographs and gage curves of floods are not available as well as in other reasonable cases, the structure can be calculated for water flow action by maximum flows and relevant stages of designed and maximum floods. Calculations should take into consideration the experience of closely located culverts on the same water course, the influence of culverts to each other and also the influence of existing or planned hydraulic structures and other river facilities upon the designed culverts. If engineering works, buildings and agricultural lands are near the bridges and culverts it is necessary to check their safety against underflooding due to the backwater in front of the structure. Designing of culverts close to non-capital dams should take into account the possible flushes in these dams. The decision whether to strengthen the dam or to enlarge the culvert opening shall be made in system, by means of comparison of technical and economical indices of available designs.

1.26. Calculations shall take the maximum flows of floods of the origin that create the most unfavourable operation conditions at a specified value of probability for exceeding. Construction of hydrographs and gage curves, determination of maximum flows during different floods and corresponding to them water stages shall be carried out in conformity with the requirements of SNiP 2.01.14-83.

1.27. Sizes of small bridge and culvert openings can be determined by the water flow mean velocity permissible for river-bed soil (including at inlet and outlet of the structure), types of bed consolidation and cones consolidation, in this connection the requirements given in items 1.23*, 1.24 and 1.34* shall be observed. Openings of small bridges and culverts can be specified taking into account water accumulation near the structure. Decrease of water flow in structures due to water accumulation is possible not more than 3 times if size of opening is specified by storm runoff and 2 times if size of opening is specified by snowmelt runoff and there is no ice or other phenomena decreasing the size of the opening. At this, not depending upon the kind of designed runoff, the culverts should keep the instructions of item 1.14 or 1.24 depending on a character of their operation in conditions of accumulation, and the small bridges should keep the item 1.23* requirements for the bottom position of the structures. If there is a permafrost soil, water accumulation near the structure is not allowed.

1.28. Sizes of openings for large and middle bridges shall be determined taking into account the backwater, natural deformation of river-bed, stable widening of under-bridge bed (cutting), general and local scours at the piers, cones and regulating structures. The bridge clear opening shall be not less than a stable width of the river-bed. City bridge opening sizes shall be specified taking into account the planned regulation of a river and the requirements for embankment layout.

1.29. General scour under the bridges shall be calculated by the equation of sediment balance on sections of the river-beds near the bridge crossings during the floods as specified in item 1.25*. If a pass of floods, smaller in quantity than the designed (maximum) ones, causes irreversible change in under-bridge bed (this is possible with flow closed more than 2 times, on bridge crossings in conditions of backwater, in tail bays of dams, deformation of beds in plain openings, etc.), then general scour shall be determined from conditions of passing the designed (maximum) flood after a series of full-scale observed floods of one of the high-water periods.

Page 20: SNiP 2.05.03-84 Bridges and Culverts ENG

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 12

For preliminary calculations and in lack of required data on water course regime, general scour can be determined by flow velocity corresponding to the sediments balance. When morphometric basis of calculation is used, the calculated maximum depth of general scour requires a 15% increase.

1.30. While constructing a line of maximum scours, besides general scour it is necessary to consider local scours at piers, influence of regulating structures and other elements of bridge crossing, possible natural changes in the bed and features of its geological structure Calculations of bridges for action of seismic loads shall not include local scour of river bed at piers.

1.31. *Coefficient value of general scour under the bridge shall be confirmed by technical-and-economical analysis. At this, it is necessary to consider the kind of river-bed soils, the bridge pier foundation structure and its embedding depth, division of bridge to spans, the backwater values, possible bed widening, flow velocity allowable for navigation and fish migration, and also other local conditions. The scour coefficient value shall be taken not more than 2, as a rule. Notes. In reasoned cases general scour coefficient can be taken more than above mentioned for bridges through shallow rivers and water courses

1.32. *Cutting of soil in the flood-plain part of the bridge opening can be carried out only in the lowland rivers. Size and shape of the cut shall be determined by calculation on the condition that the cut is not drifted in dependency on frequency of flood-plain flooding and degree of the flow closing with a bridge crossing at a designed level of high water. When calculating the free area under the bridge, the cut of shoals and banks in the channel is not considered.

1.33. The widened part due to cutting the soil under the bridge shall smoothly be tapered to unwidened parts of the channel in order to create favourable conditions for water flow and channel-forming drifts to under-bridge section. Total length of cut (to upstream and downstream from the central line of crossing) should be 4-6 times more than its width in section line of a bridge. Section line of heads of regulating structures should avoid the cut shape of maximum width. When designed the soil cutting in the flood plain, it is necessary to remove silt deposit up to the exposed loose alluvial soil on the whole cut area.

1.34. *Superelevation of edges of soil constructions on the approaches to large and middle-sized bridges above water level during floods as per item 1.25 (taking into account climb of wave on slopes and possible backwater) shall be specified not less than 0.5 m for the subgrade, water-separating and protecting dikes, and also for training walls in rivers with divagation channels, and 0.25 m for regulating structures and berms of embankments. Superelevation of subgrade edge on the approaches to small bridges and culverts above water level during the floods as per item 1.25 (taking into account backwater and accumulation) shall be specified not less than 0.5 m, and not less than 1.0 m. for pressure or half-pressure pipes. Besides that, on highways in determination of superelevation of subgrade edge at the approaches to the said-above structures the requirements of SNiP 2.05.02-85 for superelevation of the pavement bottom above the level of ground and surface water shall be observed. Within ice action to the flood plain embankment the elevation of its edge should be not lower than elevations of accumulated ice top, and also elevations of maximum ice dam or jamming, taking into consideration one and a half thickness of ice. Backwater on bridge crossings is determined by liquid motion equations or by dependencies that quite enough take into consideration these phenomena on designed crossings.

DESIGN OF CARRYING STRUCTURES AND FOUNDATIONS OF BRIDGES AND CULVERTS FOR ACTION OF FORCES

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 1.35. Carrying structures and foundations of bridges and culverts shall be calculated for action of dead loads and unfavourable combinations of live loads described in Section 2. The designs shall be performed as per the limit states, subject to the requirements ST SEV 384-76.

1.36. *Live loads of rolling stock of the railway roads (locomotives and vans) and of the highways (cars, trucks, trailers and two-wheel trailers) in cases provided by existing regulations shall be introduced into calculations with the corresponding dynamic coefficients. If the effect of two or more live loads to the structure is considered simultaneously the designed value of these loads is to be multiplied to the coefficients of combinations, less or equal to a unity.

1.37. Structural models and main criteria of design should include actual behaviour conditions for structures of bridges and culverts during their operation and when they are under construction. Bridge span structures shall be designed, generally, as space structures, but when they are conventionally separated to flat systems they shall be designed by approximate methods established in the designing practice and shall specify member interrelation between each other and with the foundation. Forces in members of structures of bridges and culverts, for which the norms don’t indicate the methods of their calculation including originating inelastic deflections, can be determined on the assumption of elastic behaviour of the adopted structural model. With relevant grounds the design can be performed by deflected model that takes into consideration the action of shears of the structure under the load. Selection of structural models and design methods for bridges and culverts shall be performed with maximum use of computers.

1.38. Stress (strains) values determined in members of the structure when designed the structure at stage of operation and during the construction as well as stress (strains) values determined in assembling members or units by designs during their fabrication, transportation, and erection should not exceed the rated resistances (ultimate strains) established in norms of designing the corresponding structures of bridges and culverts.

1.39. Mean ambient air temperature of the most cold five days in the region of construction shall be specified as the rated minimum temperature, in conformity with the requirements of SNiP 2.01.01-82, with probability: 0.92 - for concrete and reinforced concrete structures, 0.98 - for steel structures and steel parts of steel-and-reinforced concrete structures.

1.40. *. Structure stability against overturning shall be calculated as follows:

where Mu - a moment of overturning forces relative to probable structure turning (overturning) axis going on end points of supporting;

Mz - a moment of confining forces relative to the same axis; m - a coefficient of behaviour conditions taken equal to: when checking the structures supporting to separate piers: 0.95 at stage of construction; 1.0 at stage of continuous operation; when checking the sections of concrete structures and foundations: 0.9 on rock bases; 0.8 on non-rock bases.

γn - a purpose reliability coefficient taken equal to 1.1 when performed calculations at stage of continuous operation and 1.0 - when performed calculations at stage of construction. Overturning forces should be accepted with a load reliability coefficient more than a unity. Confining forces should be accepted with a load reliability coefficient: γf < 1 for dead loads; γf = 1 for live vertical movable load from the train with empty cars of railway, underground railway and the tram. In appropriate cases following the instructions of item 7.6* it is necessary to specify the structure weight decrease due to buoyant action of water.

1.41. *. Stability of the structure against shear (sliding) shall be determined as follows:

where Qr - shearing force equal to the sum of shearing force projections on probable shift direction; Qz - confining force equal to the sum of confining force projections on probable shear direction; m - a coefficient of behaviour conditions specified equal to 0.9; γn - refer to item 1.40*. Shearing forces shall be accepted with the load safety factors equaled more than a unity, but confining forces shall be accepted with the load safety factors equaled as indicated in item 1.40*. Notes. 1. The force, which value doesn’t exceed the soil active pressure, can be accepted in a function of a confining horizontal force created by soil. 2. Friction forces in the base are determined by the friction coefficients specified in the item 7.14. At this, the coefficient of friction of concrete masonry to masonry shall be specified equal to 0.55.

STRAINS, DISPLACEMENTS, LONGITUDINAL SECTION OF STRUCTURES 1.42. Designing of bridges should ensure the smooth traffic through the bridge by means of constraint of the elastic deflections of superstructure under a movable live vertical load and by acceptance of the corresponding outline for in-line profile of a route or roadway part.

1.43. Vertical elastic deflections of superstructures calculated when moving live vertical load (at γƒ=1 and a dynamic coefficient 1+μ=1) acts should not exceed the values, m: for railway bridges - determined by formula

but not more than

for city and highway bridges (including bridges on internal economy roads and industrial enterprises roads), as well as for pedestrian bridges with girder superstructures -

- by 50% for wooden superstructures.

1.44. Required outline of the rail track and pavement of the roadway shall be designed by means of: a camber of superstructure; change of the regulating course depth of the roadway and of the ballast; effective depth of bridge bars. The camber of girder superstructures of railway bridges as well as of steel, composite and timber superstructures of highway and city bridges should be provided on smooth curve the arrow of which, after calculating the deflection of dead load, equals to 40% of elastic deflection of superstructure under moving live vertical load (at γƒ =1 and 1+μ =1). Pedestrian bridge superstructure camber shall be designed as to compensate the superstructure vertical deflections under dead loads. At this, the load safety factor is specified equal to a unity. Note. The camber can not be provided for superstructures which deflection under dead and moving live vertical loads doesn’t exceed 1/1600 value of a span (but not more than 1.5 cm in the half-through bridge) as well as for timber bridges with beams.

1.45. The camber and surface profile of reinforced concrete superstructures of highway and city bridges shall be provided in such a way that after appearance of strains caused by creep and shrinkage of concrete (but not later than 2 years since the action of full continuous load) the angles of change of longitudinal profile on axes of the traffic lanes in places of connection of span to span and to the approaches didn’t exceed: the values given in Table 4* when a bridge is not loaded with moving live vertical load; 24 ‰ for load AK and 13 ‰ for loads HK-80 and HГ-60, when a bridge is loaded with moving live vertical load on axes of the traffic lanes. Longitudinal profile of roadway shall be shown in design documents at the moment of arrangement of roadway pavement (with subsequent improvement of its outline by means of changing the regulating course depth) and after appearance of concrete creep and shrinkage deformations. Notes: 1. Before long deformations appearance the angles of change of longitudinal profile in absence of moving live vertical load on the bridge can exceed the values indicated in Table 4* not more than 2 times. In case of application of twisted wire ropes in cable-stayed and suspension bridges the possible wire rope creep strain shall be taken into consideration when specified the camber and the profile.

Notes. 1. If distance between span to span connection or to the approaches exceed 50 m,

the limit values of angle of change can be increased 1.2 times. 2. In temperature-continuous spans structures integrated by floor slab the angles of

change of profile shall be determined ignoring the influence of the joint plate.

1.46. In designing the superstructures of outside statically indeterminate systems the calculations should take into consideration possible settlements and displacements of the pier top. Horizontal and vertical displacements of the pier top shall be also taken into consideration, when determined the structures of bearing parts and expansion joints, dimensions of masonry plates (pier heads, cross-bars).

1.47. Different by value settlements of neighbouring piers should not cause in longitudinal profile the additional angles of change, exceeding:

Page 24: SNiP 2.05.03-84 Bridges and Culverts ENG

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 16

2‰ - for motor road and city bridges; 1‰ - for railway bridges. Limit values of longitudinal and transverse displacements of piers tops of railway plate-girder bridges, taking into consideration the total river-bed scour, should not, as a rule, exceed a value 0.5 √lo cm, where lo is a length of the lesser span adjoining to a span pier specified not less than 25 m.

1.48. *.Design period of own transverse horizontal vibrations for plate-girder steel and composite superstructures of railway bridges should be (in seconds) not more than 0.01 l (l is a span in m) and should not exceed 1.5 s. In superstructures of pedestrian and city bridges the design periods of own vibrations (in unloaded state) on two lowest forms (in plate-girder system - on one lowest form) should not be from 0.45 to 0.60 s in vertical plane and from 0.9 to 1.2 s in horizontal plane. At this, for pedestrian bridge superstructures it is necessary to take into account possible crowding with people creating a load 0.49 kPa (50 kgf/m2). Periods of own transverse vibrations in vertical and horizontal planes should not exceed 3.0 s and a period of own torque at this should not exceed 2.0 s for cantilevers formed during cantilever erection or during incremental launching in the erection stage. Deviations from mentioned requirements can be allowed after making the corresponding calculations or special aerodynamic investigations on determination of stability and spatial rigidity of cantilevers to be assembled. At this, the requirements of item 2.24* on design of structure for action of wind pressure shall be kept. Cable-stayed and suspension bridges shall be checked for aerodynamic stability and spatial rigidity. Structures which dynamic characteristics differ to a great extent from analogous characteristics of existing bridges shall be tested, besides analytical analyse, on the models in a proper way.

1.49. When an embankment is higher than 12 m, a camber of culverts shall be specified in conformity with a calculation of assumed settlements under the embankment soil weight. Methods of calculating the settlements for foundations can be used to calculate settlement of culverts. When the embankments are 12 m high and less, culverts should be laid with a camber (as per gutter) equal to: 1/80 h - when foundations are on sand, pebble and gravel soils of the base; 1/50 h - when foundations are on clay, loam and sandy loam soils of the base; and 1/40 h - on soil pads from sandy gravel or sand-crushed stone mix (h - height of an embankment). Gutter elevations of input head (or input link) of the culvert shall be positioned in such a way that they are above the elevations of the middle link of the culvert both before the appearance of settlements of the base and after cessation of these settlements. Stability of design position of foundation sections and of culvert links in direction of longitudinal axis of the structure shall be provided by stability of the embankment slopes and by strength of soils in the base. Note. Culverts arranged on rocks and on pile foundations don’t require to specify a camber.

TRACK STRUCTURE OF RAILWAY BRIDGES 1.50. *.Track on reinforced concrete superstructure shall be laid on crushed stone ballast. Bridge road of steel superstructures shall be arranged, as a rule, on ballastless reinforced concrete slabs or on the ballast. With approval of the Ministry of Communications the arrangement of the track on timber sleepers can be applied on the steel superstructure bridges under construction. Rails on the bridges should be of heavy type (not easier than type P50 and not easier than type of rails laid on the approaches). On large bridges, on bridges with movable spans and at the approaches to these structures at a length not less than 200 m to each side the rails not easier than type P65 shall be laid. Continuous track can be laid on bridges with a bridge road on the ballast, on the bridges with ballastless bridge road - as a rule, when total length of span structures is 66 m and less. Continuous track can be laid on bridges with ballastless bridge road with span structures total length more than 66m in reasonable cases and with approval of the Ministry of Communications.

1.51. The bridge road structure should provide:

Page 25: SNiP 2.05.03-84 Bridges and Culverts ENG

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 17

- a possibility for moving train wheels to run in case of losing the track; - maintenance and repair of track using the mechanized equipment

1.52. The ballast pocket of the abutments and superstructures with a ballast-base road should provide an arrangement of the ballast prism of typical cross section adopted for the bridges.

1.53. The bridge road (including guard sleepers, regulating devices or season regulating rails) shall be designed following the “Instructions on Arrangement and Construction of Bridge Road on the Railway Bridges” approved by the Ministry of Communications.

1.54. Ballastless bridge road on the reinforced concrete slabs should be not less than 3.20 m wide.

1.55. Bridge bars (timber bridge sleepers) should conform to GOST 8486-66, with section 20x24 cm and 3.25 m long.

1.56. *. Bridges of total length more than 25 m, as well as all bridges higher than 3 m, and bridges located within the railway stations, and all overpasses should be fitted with service footways both sides including the railings (not less than 1.10 m high) constructed outside the clearance to obstructions. In regions with daily mean temperature of ambient air -40°C and lower (with probability 0.92) all bridges of total length more than 10 m shall be fitted with sidewalks both sides. Besides that, double-track and multi-track bridges shall provide the sidewalks (without railings) on the inter-track. The sidewalk floor shall be made, as a rule, of the reinforced concrete slabs.

1.57. When designed the tracks on the approaches it is necessary to provide measures against displacement of a track from approaches to bridge.

Horizontal transverse load when computed the expansion joints shall be applied in the level of roadway and taken in the form of two equal forces distanced from each other to 1.9 m for load AK and to rear wheels track width for load АБ as per Table 10.

In all cases the factor s1 should be taken into consideration according to item 2.14. The longitudinal load of the vehicles standing on the sliding triangle near the abutments is not considered. In bridges with beam spans the longitudinal load can be applied in the level of : the roadway part – when designed the abutments; centre of bearing parts - when designed the intermediate supports, at this, the moment influence of load transfer is permitted to ignore. Longitudinal force of braking or traction force to be applied to the fixed bearing parts shall be specified as 100% of full longitudinal force acting to the deck. At this, the longitudinal force from moving bearing parts of neighbouring span mounted on the same pier shall not be taken into consideration, except the case of location in simple spans of fixed bearing parts from the side of the shorter span adjacent to the pier. The force to the pier in the given case should be taken equal to the sum of longitudinal forces transmitted through bearing parts of both spans but not more than the force transmitted from the side of the longer span in its fixed bearing position.

OTHER LIVE LOADS AND FORCES 2.23. *. Characteristic value of wind load Wn shall be determined as a sum of characteristic values of mean Wm and pulsation Wp components: Wn = Wm + Wp Characteristic value of mean component of wind load Wm at a height z above surface of water or ground is determined by the formula Wm = Wo kCw where Wo - characteristic value of wind pressure taken as per SNiP 2.01.07-85 depending upon the wind region of the Russian Federation territory where the structure is under construction; k - factor that takes into consideration for the open area (type A) the change of wind pressure by height z, taken as per SNiP 2.01.07-85; Cw - aerodynamic coefficient of face resistance of bridge structures and of moving train of railroad and subway, determined in special Appendix 9*. Characteristic value of pulsation component of wind load Wp at a height z shall be determined as per instructions of SNiP 2.01.07-85: Wh = Wm ξ L ν where ξ - dynamic coefficient; L - pulsation coefficient of wind pressure on the level z; ν - pressure pulsation space correlation coefficient for designed surface of the structure. When determined the wind load pulsation component relative to the bridge structures the following guidance can be taken:

a) the product of coefficients Lν shall be taken equal to : 0.55-0.15 λ /100, but not less than 0.30, where λ - length of span or height of pier, m;

b) dynamic coefficient ξ for simple beam structures shall be determined with assumption that the considered structure in horizontal plane is the dynamic system with the single degree of freedom (with lower frequency of own oscillations ƒ1, Hz) and its value has to be determined by schedule given in item 6.7 SNiP 2.01.07-85 depending on the given parameter ∑ and logarithmic decrement of dumping σ = 0.3 - for reinforced concrete and steel reinforced concrete structures and σ = 0.15 - for steel structures. The dynamic coefficient is taken equal to 1.2 if: beam span structure is a continuous one; for simple beam structure there is a condition that ƒ > ƒ, where ƒ, Hz is a limit value of own oscillation freequencies, described in item 6.8 of SNiP 2.01.07-85, that allows in different wind areas to ignore the inercia forces, originating with natural oscillations . In calculation of highway and city bridge structures the wind force to the railless traffic and to the tram, standing on these bridges, is ignored. Standard span structures shall be designed, as a rule, for possibility to be used in wind region V ( with designed height to the span bottom: 20 m – for through bridge and 15 m for deck-type bridge) and shall provide the opportunity to reinforce them when applied in wind regions VI and VII. Characteristic intensity of full transverse horizontal wind load when designed the individual (not standard) span structures and piers shall be taken not less than 0.59 kPa (60 kgf/m2) when loaded the structures with vertical live load and 0.98 kPa (100 kgf/ m2) in absence of loading with this load.

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 41

Horizontal transverse wind load acting to separate bridge structures as well as to the train, being on the railway bridge (subway bridge) shall be taken equal to the product of wind load intensity by effective wind surface of the bridge and moving train. The effective wind surface of bridge structure and moving vehicle shall be taken equal to: - area of projection of all elements of the windward truss to the plane in perpendicular to wind direction for the main girders of open-web spans and open-web piers, at this, for steel girders with a triangular or skew lattice it can be taken within 20% of area confined by the girder contours; - side surface of deck framing not covered with the truss chord for the roadway part of the open-web spans; - side surface of the windward main girder or box and windward bridge beam for decks with solid web and for stringers of wooden bridges; - area of projection of the pier body from the level of soil or water to the plane in perpendicular to the wind direction for the solid piers; - area of solid strip 3 m high with a centre of pressure at a height 2 m from the rail head for the railway moving train ( including trains of the subway). Wind load distribution along the span length can be taken as uniform. Characteristic intensity of wind load taken into consideration during the construction and erection shall be determined on the base of wind load mean component value possible during the given period in the given region. Depending on the character of executed work, in availability of special grounds that provide the corresponding limit of time and duration of execution of separate stages of construction, the characteristic value of wind load mean component for checking the stress (but not the stability) can be decreased but it should be not less than 0.226 kPa (23 kgf/m2). To check the standard structures at the stage of construction and erection, the wind load characteristic intensity value shall be taken in accordance with the norms for wind region III. Characteristic horizontal longitudinal wind load for open web decks shall be taken in size of 60% , for decks with solid beams – in size of 20%, in respect to full characteristic transverse wind load. Characteristic horizontal longitudinal load to the piers of bridges above the level of soil or the lowest water level shall be taken equal to transverse wind load. Longitudinal wind load to the traffic being on the bridge is ignored. Wind load forces in the members of longitudinal and transverse braces between the trusses of spans shall be determined, as a rule, by means of three-dimensional calculations. In case of making two longitudinal brace systems in lattice span structures it is allowed to distribute the wind transverse pressure to each system, but wind pressure to the roadway and to the moving traffic can be transmitted completely to those braces which planes carry the traffic. Horizontal force from longitudinal wind load acting to the span structure shall be taken as transferred to piers in the level of the centre of bearing parts for bridges with beam decks, and in the level of the frame cross-bar axis for bridges of framed structure. Distribution of forces between piers shall be taken the same as of horizontal force from deceleration according to item 2.20*. Cable-stayed and suspension bridges are required to be tested for aerodynamic stability and oscillations resonance in direction perpendicular to wind flow. The aerodynamic stability test should determine a critical wind velocity that can cause the flutter occurrence (appearance of dangerous flexure-torsion oscillations of suspension girder) due to the reason of interaction between the air flow and the structure. The critical speed corresponding to the flutter occurrence, determined by the results of aerodynamic model tests or determined by computation should be more than the maximum wind velocity available in the bridge location area, but not less than 1.5 times.

2.24. Characteristic ice load from ice pressure to the bridge piers shall be taken in the form of forces determined as per Special Appendix 10*.

2.25. Characteristic load from vessel impact to bridge piers shall be taken in the form of concentrated longitudinal or transverse force and limited with values indicated in Table 15, depending on class of internal water ways.

The load of the vessel impact shall be applied to the pier at a height 2 m from the designed navigable level except the cases when the pier has projections fixing the level of this load action and when with less high level the load causes the more significant action. For piers protected against the vessel impact as well as for wooden piers of highway bridges through the internal water ways of class VI and VII the vessel impact load can be ignored. For one-row reinforced concrete pile piers of highway bridges through the internal water ways of class VI and VII the load along the bridge axis can be considered in size of 50%.

The temperature of complicated cross-section members shall be determined as the weighted average as per temperature of separate members (webs, flanges, etc.). The ambient air characteristic temperature in warm tn,T and cold tn,X seasons of a year shall be specified as follows:

a) when worked out the standard designs as well as the secondary-use designs at the territory of the country: for structures constructed in the regions with the designed minimum air temperature minus 40°C,

tn,T = 40 C; tn,X = - 50°C; for structures constructed in other regions tn,T = 40 C; tn,X = - 40°C; b) in other cases tn,T = tVII + T (29) where tVII - mean air temperature of the most hot month taken as per SNiP 2.01.01- 82; T - constant value for determination of air temperature of the most hot days taken as per isolines map in SNiP 2.01.01-82, °C. Characteristic temperature tn,X is specified equal to the designed minimum air temperature in the region of construction in conformity with item 1.39.

Solar radiation influence to the temperature of the members shall be considered in the form of additional heat for 10 °C of the sun-lighted surface layer of 15 cm thick (including the pavement of the roadway floor). The structure locking temperatures, unless otherwise specified in the design, shall be taken equal to: t3,T = tn,T - 15° C; t3,X = tn,X + 15°C; The temperature of the structure at the moment of locking t3 can be determined by the formula t3 = 0.4 t1 + 0.6 t2 (30) where t1 - mean air temperature of a period previous to the locking, equal to To; t2 - mean air temperature at a period previous to the locking, equal to 0.25 To ; To- the period, h, numerically equal to the structure members reduced thickness, cm, that shall be determined by dividing the doubled area of cross section of the member (including the pavement) to its perimeter on the border with ambient air. When computed the steel-and-concrete decks it shall be taken into consideration the influence of temperature nonuniform distribution as per section of members, caused by changing the temperature of air and solar radiation. In calculation of displacements the coefficient of linear expansion shall be taken equal to 1.2⋅10 -5 for steel and steel-and-concrete structures and 1.0⋅10-5 for reinforced concrete structures. 2.27. *.

3.1. Concrete and reinforced concrete bridges and culverts shall be designed in conformity with the Standard CMEA 1406-78 (Council for Mutual Economic Assistance) to ensure the required structure reliability during occurrence of the limitting states of two groups provided with GOST 27751-88 (ST CMEA 384-87). For this purpose together with assignment of corresponding materials and fulfilment of envisaged constructional requirements it is necessary to make designs indicated in the present norms. The structure as a whole and its separate members shall be designed at the most unfavourable combinations of loads and forces that can occur at different stages of operation. Considered structural models, which general requirements are indicated in item 1.37, should correspond to adopted structural-manufacturing decisions, take into consideration the conditions of manufacture, transportation and erection of structures, characteristic features of their loading with dead and live loads, the sequence of prestressing and regulation of forces in the structure.

3.2. To avoid the limitting states of the first group the structural members of the bridges and culverts shall be computed as per strength, stability (form and position) and durability in accordance with the instructions of the present Section, at this, the durability design shall consider the loads and forces that can occur at the stage of normal operation. To avoid the limitting states of the second group the designs shall be carried out following the Table 18 .

Crack resistance designs in complete with structural and other requirements (for drainage and waterproofing of structures, frost resistance and watertightness of concrete) must ensure corrosion resistance of reinforced concrete bridges and culverts as well as prevent occurrence of damages in them at combined effect of force factors and unfavourable influence of environment. Members of reinforced concrete structures depending on the purpose, behaviour conditions and applied reinforcement shall satisfy to corresponding categories of requirements for crack resistance that provide different probability of crack formation (appearance) and ultimate designed values of their opening width (see item 3.95*).

3.4. Statically indeterminate structure members sections forces from loads and forces when designed the limitting states of the first and the second groups shall be determined, as a rule, taking into account the inelastic deformations of concrete and reinforcement, and cracks availability. In structures for which the design methods including the inelastic properties of concrete are not developed, as well as for intermediate design steps with accounting the inelastic properties of concrete the forces in member sections can be determined by assumption of their linear elasticity.

3.5. If in the process of fabrication or erection of the structure the structural models or geometric characteristics of sections are changed, then the forces, stresses and strains in the structure shall be determined by summation of them for all previous stages of work. At this, as a rule, the change of forces has to be considered in time due to shrinkage and creep of concrete and relaxation of stress in stressed reinforcement.

3.6. *.In structures with untensioned reinforcement the stresses in concrete and reinforcement shall be determined by rules of design of elastic materials not taking into consideration the behavior of concrete in the tensile zone (see items 3.48*, 3.94* and 3.100*).

3.7. *. In prestressed structures the stresses in concrete and reinforcement in sections normal to the longitudinal axis of the member shall be determined by rules of design of elastic materials considering the section as solid one. If in-situ casting concrete of stressed reinforcement placed in open canals has no bonding with concrete of the main structure (see item 3.170), it should be considered that the stressed reinforcement itself placed in open canals has no bonding with concrete of the structure. In determining the crack opening width in elements of prestressed structures (including with mixed reinforcement ) stresses in reinforcement shall be determined not taking into consideration the action of tensile zone of concrete. It is permitted to pass the tensile zone forces to reinforcement. The characteristics of the given section in all cases shall be determined taking into consideration stressed and untensioned reinforcement available in the section, following the item 3.48*. If the structure members are made of concrete of different classes, then the total working area of section shall be determined taking into account relevant modules of elasticity. In prestressed structures at the stage of concrete compression in working zone of concrete the area of closed and open canals are not taken into consideration. In designing these structures at the stage of operation the designed area of section of concrete can include the section area of injected

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 48

closed canals. In-situ casting concrete of open canals can be taken into consideration on condition of fulfilment of requirements as per item 3.104* of special process measures according to the item 3.170 and installation of untensioned reinforcement in in-situ casting concrete. At this, the crack opening width in in-situ casting concrete should not exceed dimensions accepted for members designed as per 3в frost resistance requirements category.

3.8. * Length (height)-composite constructions shall be checked for strength and frost resistance in sections coinciding with butt joints or crossing the butt zone. Butt joints should provide the transmission of designed forces without appearance of damages in in-situ casting concrete and on the ends of butted elements (blocks). Paste in butt joints is intended to seal butt joints and to transfer uniformly the compressive forces.

3.9. *. Railway bridge deck T-beam webs shall be designed with assumption of possible transverse displacement not less than 10 cm of track on the bridge. Cracks formation design of the bridge deck beam webs is recommended to perform taking into account torsion and bend of the webs (out of their plane).

3.10. *. The reinforcement preliminary stress is characterized by values of the initial (controlled) force, taking into consideration item 3.86, applied to the ends of stressed reinforcement via tension devices, and stable force equal to controlled one less the losses happened to the time under consideration. At this, reinforcement stresses corresponding to the controlled force should not exceed the designed resistance indicated in Table 31*, taking into consideration the behavior conditions coefficient according to item 3.43*. For prestressed reinforced members the design documents should indicate the values of controlled forces and relevant extensions (elongation) or reinforcement taking into consideration item 4 of Table 1 of Obligatory Appendix 11*.

The reinforcement extension value ∆p in general case is determined as follows:

where σp - stresses corresponding to the controlled force and specified taking into consideration the requirements of item 3.14; Ep - stressed reinforcement elasticity modulus; l - designed length of reinforcing member (distance from tendon anchor to point of reinforcement element with zero displacements) Other symbols are given in Table 1 and 2* of Obligatory Appendix 11*. In determining the designed action created by the stressed reinforcement force the load safety factors γƒ shall be specified equal to:

a) in availability of bonded reinforcement: 1 - for continuous lengthwise members;

as per item 3.86* - for composite members; b) 1 ± 0.1 - without bonded reinforcement (see item 3.65*).

3.11. When prestressed members are calculated the transfer to concrete of concentrated forces from the stressed reinforcement shall be placed in structures: with outer (end) and inner (framed-rod) anchors - in the point of bearing or fastening of anchors; with reinforcement having no anchors ( with anchoring by means of bonding the reinforcement with concrete) - at a distance equal to 2/3 of development length. The development length of forces during the force transfer from the stressed deformed bars to the concrete shall be as follows: smooth -20 d (d - bar diameter)

instantaneous by means of the cutting of bars (allowable at bar diameter not more than 18 mm) - 25 d. For structure members intended to operate in regions with mean ambient air temperature of the most cold five-day -40°C the development length has to be increased by 5d. The development length of forces from stressed strands of class K-7 in absence of anchors shall be specified in values as indicated in Table 19; for structure members intended to operate in regions with mean ambient air temperature of the most cold five day lower than -40°C, in case of strands of class K-7 the development length values should exceed the values indicated in Table 19 as follows: by 27 cm - at strand diameter 9 mm; by 30 cm - ditto 12 mm; by 38 cm - ditto 15 mm .

With instantaneous transfer of stressing force to the concrete (by means of strand cutting off) the beginning of development length should be specified at a distance equal to 0.25 lгр from the end face of the member.

3.12. * Reinforcement of development length of concentrated forces including from stressed reinforcing members shall be installed taking into consideration the tension-deformed state of this length determined with methods of elasticity theory or other proved methods of computation of local stresses.

3.13. The influence of shrinkage and creep of the concrete shall be taken into consideration when determining : losses of preliminary tensions in reinforcement; de-compressing of concrete in prestressed structures; changes of forces in structures with artificial control of stresses; displacement (strain) of structures due to continuous loads and actions; forces in statically indeterminate structures; forces in precast cast-in-place structures. Displacements (strains) of structures caused by live loads can be determined without taking into consideration the creep and shrinkage of the concrete. In computation of two-axis or three-axis compressed members the losses of stress in stressed structure and de-compressing of concrete due to its creep and shrinkage can be determined separately on each direction of force action. Stresses in prestressed structure members shall be determined by the controlled force with the deduction of: the first losses at the stage of compressing the concrete; the first and second losses at the operation stage. The first losses should include:

a) in posttensioning structures - losses due to the anchor deformation, reinforcement friction against surrounding devices, stress relaxation in reinforcement, (in size 50% of full volume), drop of temperature, quickly moved creep and due to deformation of forms (when reinforcement is tensioned onto the forms);

b) in post-tensioning structures - losses due to the anchor deformation, reinforcement friction against closed and open channels, stress relaxation in reinforcement (in size 50% of full volume).

The second losses should include:

Page 58: SNiP 2.05.03-84 Bridges and Culverts ENG

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 50

a) in pretensioning structures - losses due to shrinkage and creep of concrete, stress relaxation in reinforcement (in size 50% of full volume);

b) - lin post-tensioning structures - due to shrinkage and creep of concrete, stress relaxation in reinforcement (in size 50% of full volume), bearing strain beneath spiral or hooped reinforcement coiled onto a concrete, deformation of butts between sections in length-composite structures. Individual values of listed above losses have to be determined as per Obligatory Appendix 11* taking into consideration item 3.15.

It can be allowed that second losses due to stress relaxation in reinforcement (in size 50% of full volume) occur uniformly and are finished completely during one month after stressing the concrete.

In designing the summary of first and second losses should be taken not less than 98 MPa (1000 kgf/cm2).

3.14. The reinforcement prestressing losses due to shrinkage and creep of concrete shall be determined taking into consideration the following directions:

a) time change of losses, ∆σp (t) due to shrinkage and creep of concrete can be determined by the formula ∆σp (t) = 1-e-0.1√t’) ∆σp (t → ∞), (39) where ∆σp (t → ∞) - finite (limited) values of losses in reinforcement due to shrinkage and creep of concrete defined by Obligatory Appendices 11* and 13* ; t - the time since the day of concrete compression when determining the losses due to creep, and the time since the day of ending the concreting, daily, when determining the losses due to shrinkage. e = 2.718 - the base of natural logarithms;

b) for structures intended to operate in ambient air humidity less than 40% the losses due to shrinkage and creep shall be increased by 25 % except for structures intended to operate in climatic subregion IVA according to SNiP 2.01.01-82 and not protected against solar radiation for which the mentioned losses are increased by 50%.

c) more precise methods for determination of losses and re-distribution of forces from shrinkage and creep of concrete, influence of reinforcement, age and transfer strength of concrete, stage-by-stage load application and durability of its action on each stage, deformation development speed in the time, reduced dimensions of cross sections, ambient air relative humidity and other factors can be used. These methods must be conformed in the established order. At this, normative strains of creep cn and shrinkage of concrete εn for classes of concrete corresponding to its transfer strength shall be specified as per Table 3 of Obligatory Appendix 11*.

3.15.

3.16. The designed length lo of compression members of reinforced concrete lattice trusses shall be specified by instructions relevant to determination of the designed length of compression members of steel lattice trusses (refer to Section 4). The designed length of legs of detached frames when legs are rigidly connected to the cross bar can be specified by Table 20 depending on the ratio of rigidness of the cross bar B1+Ebl1 and legs B2=Ebl2.

Notes. With intermediate values of ratio L/H and B1/B2 the designed length lo can be determined by interpolation.

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 51

The designed length of piles (tubular piles, pole piles) including in members of trestle-type supports shall be specified taking into consideration deformability of soil and capacity of resistance against displacements of foundation and top of the support. On computation of the support parts or members as per longitudinal bend by means of constructional mechanics concerning determination of the designed (free) length of compression members, it is permitted to take into consideration the elastic fixing (elastic yielding) of the ends of members under consideration due to soil deformability and availability of friction forces in movable bearing shoes. If such computations are not carried out, when used the movable bearing parts of roller or sector type as well as on the fluoroplastic gaskets, interrelation of the top can be ignored. In compression reinforced concrete members the minimum cross section area of longitudinal reinforcement, % to the full area of designed section of concrete should be not less than: 0.20- in members with flexibility lo / i ≤ 17; 0.60 - ditto, with flexibility lo / i ≥ 104; for intermediate values of flexibility - by interpolation (lo - designed length of member); i = √ Jb / Ab - radius of inertia of member cross section, where Jb - moment of inertia of concrete section; Ab - area of concrete section. If value of minimum reinforcing don’t satisfy the requirements then the structure members have to be designed as concrete. Flexibility of compression reinforced concrete members in any direction under stage of operation shouldn’t exceed 120 and under the stage of erection - 150. Flexibility lo / ief of members with indirect reinforcement shouldn’t exceed 55 in case of mesh and 35 in case of spiral, where ief - radius of inertia of concrete section part (limited by axes of end bars of the mesh or spiral).

3.17. Links of rectangular reinforced concrete pipes shall be computed as the closed loop frames with additional checking their webs by the scheme with rigidly embedded legs. Links of round reinforced concrete pipes can be computed only by bending moments (without consideration of longitudinal and transverse forces), determined by the Obligatory Appendix 12.

ANALYSIS AS PER LIMITING STATES OF THE FIRST GROUP DESIGN AS PER STRENGTH AND STABILITY

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 3.49. . Concrete and reinforced concrete bridges and culverts shall be designed with the comparison of outside load designed forces with the limitting ones. Flexural, centre- and out-of centre tension concrete members are not allowed to use in the structures.

3.50. *. Designed forces in statically indeterminate structures should take into consideration re-distribution of forces from concrete shrinkage and creep, artificial regulation, crack formation and preliminary stress to the total force determined by characteristic values of the listed loads and forces, that is introduced with a safety factor 1.1 or 0.9.

3.51. . The limitting forces in structure members shall be determined in sections normal and inclined to longitudinal axis of the member.

3.52. *. When designed concrete and reinforced concrete members for action of compressive longitudinal force N, the least, produced from calculations of strength and stability, shall be taken as the designed value of the force. When designed as per strength it should be accounted a random eccentricity ec,c1 = 1/400 lo (lo is a member geometric length or its part between fixing points of member specified taking into consideration the requirements of item 3.16). When designed as per crack resistance and strains the random eccentricity shall not be taken into consideration. In members of statically determinate structures the eccentricity ec (relative to the gravity centre of equivalent section) is determined as a sum of eccentricities - determined by the static design of the structure and of random ec.c1’. For members of static indeterminate structure the eccentricity value of longitudinal force relative to the gravity centre of equivalent section ec is taken equal to the eccentricity, found from the static design, but not less than ec.c1’.

3.53. *. Strength and stability of compression, out-of-centre compression concrete and reinforced concrete members of rectangular, T-shaped, I-shaped and U-shaped sections in dependence on eccentricity value ec = M/N are designed according to Table 35*.

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 64

Compression members with designed initial eccentricity ec > r shall be designed to out-of-centre compression. The effect of deflection on increase of design force of out-of-centre compression member when designed as per undistorted scheme shall be taken into account by means of multiplying the eccentricity ec by a coefficient η determined as per item 3.54*.

3.54. *. The coefficient η taking into account the effect of deflection as per strength is determined as follows: where Ncr - conventional critical force, determined as follows: for concrete members

for reinforced concrete members

where Ib - inertia moment of concrete area, it is determined without taking into consideration the cracks in concrete; Is - inertia moment of concrete area of untensioned and stressed reinforcement. Inertia moments are determined relative to axes running through a gravity centre of equivalent section. In expressions (45) and (46) the coefficients ϕl and ϕp take into consideration the influence on deflection of long load action, preliminary stress of reinforcement and eccentricity relative value, respectively. The value of coefficient ϕ shall be taken equal to:

Where M - moment equal to the product of normal force N, of dead and live loads at a distance from place of force location N to the most tension bar (for concrete members - to the most tension face of section) or to the least compressed bar or face (with completely compressed section). The coefficient δ value shall be taken equal to ec/h, but not less than defined as follows:

where Rb - rated resistance of concrete, MPa; l0 - design length of member. If moments (or eccentricities) of complete load and of dead load have different signs, then with absolute value of eccentricity of complete load ec≤ 0.1 h it shall be taken ϕ = 1.0 and with ec< 0.1h it shall be taken ϕ = 1.05. Coefficient value ϕp taking into consideration the influence of preliminary tension of reinforcement against stiffness of the member shall be determined by formula

* Mixed reinforcement permits to increase the limiting tensile stresses in concrete according to instructions of item 3.96*. In highway and city bridge structures with stressing steel wire reinforcement when it is located in the roadway slab the limiting tensile stresses in concrete in direction of its compressing should be not more than 0.8 Rbt,ser. ** Zink-plated wire permit to take ∆cr = 0.22 cm *** Crack opening width should not exceed in cm: 0.020 in railway bridge span members, in highway and city bridge roadway upper slabs with arranging waterproofing on them, in legs and piles of all piers located in alternate water level zone as well as in members and parts of culverts; 0.015 in railway bridge intermediate supports in zones located above and beneath alternate water level ; 0.010 at a level of the upper face in longitudinal joints of upper slabs of the roadway of highway and city bridges. When bridges and culverts are located near the dams of hydraulic stations and water pools in alternate freezing and thawing zone (in regime as per GOST 10060-87) the crack opening width depending on a number of cycles of alternate freezing a year shall be equal, in cm, not more than: 0.015 at a number of cycles less than 50; 0.010 ditto, 50 and more.

3.97. *. Compressive concrete of structures designed by category of requirements as per crack resistance 2a, when checked the possibility of loaded erecting crane operation on the bridge part under erection, permits to take: limiting values of normal tensile stresses in concrete - 1.15Rbt,ser; limiting values of crack opening designed width - 0.01 cm. De-tensioning in stressed reinforcement corresponding to losses a year should be taken into consideration in the design.

3.98. *. In members of structures designed by category of requirements as per crack resistance 2a, 2б, and 3б, in zones of concrete compressed in the stage of operation under dead and live loads of structures it shall not be allowed the origin of tensile stresses exceeding 0.8Rbt,ser in other stages.

CRACK FORMATION DESIGN 3.99. *. Crack resistance of bridge and culvert reinforced concrete structures is ensured by limitations of tensile and compressing stresses occurred in members and of concrete structures – by limitations of compressing stresses. The limit values of mentioned stresses are taken depending on the conditions that should be provided: a) cracks appearance (formation) in structure members is not permitted; b) appearance of cracks with opening limited by width is permitted (possible).

Originating from acting normal loads and impacts the normal compressing stresses σbx in member sections shall not exceed: rated resistance Rb,mc2 (taking into account items 3.48* and 3.97*) in concrete and reinforced concrete structures with untensioned reinforcement; rated resistance Rb,mc1(at a stage of fabrication and erection) and Rb,mc2 (at a stage of continuous operation). Main compressing stresses originating in concrete of prestressed beam webs shall not exceed the rated resistance Rb,mc2 of concrete in all cases.

3.101. . Formation of cracks normal to longitudinal member axis (perpendicular to normal tensile stresses action direction) is not permitted in the bridge structures designed by category of requirements as per crack resistance 2a, except a case when checking the erecting crane operation on the bridge. At this, random cross crack formation probability is not excluded. To fulfil these conditions the normal tensile stresses in compressing concrete shall not exceed the values indicated in Table 39* and item 3.97*.

3.102. . In structures designed by category of requirements as per crack resistance 2б, 3а, 3б, and 3а cross cracks formation can be assumed. At this, possibility of cross crack formation in structures designed by categories of requirements as per crack resistance 2б and 3a is limited by two indices given in Table 39*: maximum-permissible tensile stresses and designed width of possible cross crack opening. Besides that, in prestressed structures designed by category of requirements as per crack resistance 2б it should be ensured “the compressing” of cross cracks: limit values of minimum compressing stresses in concrete under compression in absence of live load the values shall be not less than the values indicated in Table 39*.

Main tensile stresses in concrete of prestressed beam webs shall be limited taking into consideration the ratio of main compressing stresses σmc to rated resistance of concrete Rb,mc2 against compressing, when considering the section as solid one. Limit values of main tensile stresses depending on the ratio of indicated values shall be taken not more than ones given in Table 40*.

When joints are not compressed it should be introduced the coefficient mb15 instead of coefficient mb6. Casting concrete section can be taken into consideration in design as per the second group limiting states if the design stipulates and structurally ensues transfer of shear force on contact of casting concrete with concrete of blocks and provided shearing stresses in concrete on contact don’t exceed 0.5Rb,sh as per Table 23*. The section of injecting grout in closed channels can be considered completely in the design.

3.111. *. Resistance of members against cracks from local stresses, caused by applied concentrated forces of pre-stresses, and the web (beam) bending under local load can be provided by means of installation of additional reinforcement that takes up from concrete all tensile force from local actions in assumption of crack formation on the part under consideration. At this, calculated crack depth should not exceed the depth rated for category of requirements on crack resistance 3б or 3в ( refer to Table 39*). For parts where mentioned stresses don't exceed 0.4Rbt,ser, reinforcement can be carried out structurally. When designed the concrete for local compression under anchor a force transmitted by the latter shall be taken equal to: 100 % of reinforcement force when post-tensioning; 30% of reinforcement force when pretentioning the tendon with inner anchor.

DETERMINATION OF DEFLECTIONS AND DEFLECTION ANGLES 3.112. Deflections, deflection angles and lengthwise shifts are calculated by structural mechanics formulae depending on members curvature 1/p as well as relative lengthwise shifts, that are determined on the base of a hypothesis of flat sections for overall (elastic and inelastic) deformations. Deflection ƒ or deflection angle α, stipulated by the member flexure strains shall be determined as follows:

where M(x) - when determined a deflection f it is a function of bending moment of unit force, applied in direction of the unknown deflection f ; when determined a deflection angle α it is a function of bending moment from the unit moment, applied in direction of the unknown deflection angle. 1/p(x) - member curvature in the same section caused by load applied for determination of a deflection or deflection angle (the sign is taken as per the sign of bending moment in the given section). In Equation (134) summation extends all over the parts (lengthwise the deck) different by laws of variation of values M(x) and 1/p(x). Deflections (deflection angles) can be calculated by numerical methods using the expression

where M(x) and 1/p(x) are mean values of moment and curvature on separate parts of length ∆x, where variation of mentioned parameters has a smooth character.

Values of mentioned rigidities can be determined as per the Obligatory Appendix 13*. The Equation (136) right part can be determined by other methods proved in established order. Moments from pre-stress shall be calculated based on reinforcement stresses corresponding to stages of structure behavior; at a stage of compressing – minus the first losses; at consequent stages including the performance stage - minus the second losses also according to Obligatory Appendix 11*. Bending moment values Mg during cantilevering shall be determined taking into account weight of blocks under erection and other possible constructional loads. When determined rigidities Bp* and Bg* the prestress force effect and duration of load action are taken into account

where Bg* - rigidity of section under dead load action with allowance for crack formation and concrete creep; B - rigidity of solid section under live load short action with allowance for crack formation. In calculating the members curvature it is permitted to consider that all dead load acts in concrete of one and the same age, corresponding to application of the most part of this load. Stressed reinforcement members curvature on the parts with cracks (more than 0.015 cm wide) in tensile zone can be determined by the instructions of SNiP 2.03.01-84.

3.115. *. When designed the deflection of beams with untensioned reinforcement (if crack in concrete is not more than 0.015 cm wide) by formula of resistances of elastic materials as well as when designed the shift of piers, posts, encased piles (including concrete piles) not depending on the section crack measured width, the rigidity can be determined as follows: B= 0.8 EbJb , here Jb is inertia moment of concrete section. Shifts of mass concrete and reinforced concrete members (piers) under live and dead loads can be computed including rigidities determined by complete sections of members not taking into consideration creep and shrinkage of concrete.

3.127. *. In simple supported beams and at the ends of continuous beams the tensile bars of longitudinal reinforcement brought behind the bearing part axis shall have straight lengths not less than 8 diameters of the bar. Besides that, the first bars connected to lateral surfaces of the beam shall be bent at the end face under an angle 90° and continue up to a half of the beam depth.

DESIGNS GENERAL PROVISIONS

4.20. Design diagram of a structure shall be accepted in compliance with its designed geometrical diagram, at this, camber and deformations under load are ignored, as a rule. Forces in members and displacement of steel bridge members are determined from the condition of their behavior with gross sections. Geometrical non-linearity, caused by the structure members displacement, shall be taken into account in the design of the systems in which geometric non-linearity causes changes in forces and displacement more than for 5 %. When designs include non-linearity it is necessary to determine changes in direction of forces actions, connected with general deformation of the system (tracing effect). When determining forces in structural members the welded and frictional connections with high-tension bolts shall be considered as inelastic ones. When designing cable-stayed and suspension bridges with flexible twisted single-stranded metal-core rope and enclosed ropes subjected to prestretching as per item 4.4*, the transverse and longitudinal creep of mentioned ropes shall be considered as per provisions of items 4.34 and 4.35.

4.21. Rigid connections of members in lattice girders nodes can be assumed in design as the hinged ones if with this assumption the structure remains its rigidity, at this, for main girder the ratio of cross-sectional height to length of member shall not exceed 1:15, as a rule. Additional stresses in truss chords from hangers deformation shall be considered not depending upon the ratio of cross-sectional height to member length of chord. Allowance of nodes rigidity in lattice girders can be carried out with approximation methods, at this axial forces can be determined by hinge design diagram.

Page 128: SNiP 2.05.03-84 Bridges and Culverts ENG

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 120

4.22. *For an axis of span structure member it is taken a line connecting the centers of gravity of its sections. When determining location of the center of gravity of the section, its weakening by the bolted joint holes is ignored, but weakening by perforation is included and taken constant all over the whole length of the member. When the axis of through truss member is displaced relative to the line connecting the centers of nodes the eccentricity shall be considered in the design if it exceeds: for П-shaped, box, double-channeled, and I-beam members - 1.5 % of beam depth; for T-beam and H-shaped members - 0.7% of beam depth. Bending moments of member axes displacement are distributed among all members of the node in proportion to their rigidity and in inverse proportion to the length. In doing so each bending moment shall be taken equal to the product of eccentricity into the maximum value of force in the given member of the basic design diagram. It is allowed to ignore the eccentricity appeared in bracing members composed of angles with bolted connections, centered by marks being the nearest to the back edge.

4.23. Distribution of live load in members of multibeam span structures with continuous girders united with rigid cross bracing when length-to-width ratio is more than 4 can be determined by thin-walled bar theory, accepting the hypothesis of non-deformability of cross section contour. In all other cases it is necessary to consider the deformations of cross section contour.

4.24. On the stage of designing it is necessary to provide spatial rigidity, strength, general and local stability of span structures and piers as a whole, blocks, individual members, their parts, details and joints under the loads action occurred during fabrication, transportation and erection; and under the operational loads action - endurance shall be provided as well. For members weakened by common bolt holes the designs of strength and endurance should use net sections and designs of stability and rigidity should use gross sections. In designs of members with frictional connections on high-tension bolts for endurance, stability and rigidity the gross sections shall be used, in designs for strength the net sections shall be used with allowance for that half force in considered section applied to the given bolt has been already transferred by the forces of friction. Geometrical characteristics of net section of structural members shall be defined, determining the most unfavorable weakening.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF DESIGN OF LOAD-BEARING MEMBERS AND CONNECTIONS MEMBERS OF MAIN TRUSSES

4.59. Members and connections of lattice main truss with ratio of section depth to member length above 1/15 should be designed for strength taking into consideration the bending moments of nodes rigidity. This requirement is also refer to endurance designs of lattice main truss members with nodal connections on high-tension bolts; in case of welded node connections the endurance shall be designed with allowance of bending moments of nodes rigidity independently on the value of section depth-to-member length ratio. Strength of lattice main trusses, having roadway level chord that works for combined action of axial forces and bending from out-of-node load application, shall be designed taking into consideration rigidity of nodes of mentioned chord ignoring the ratio of section depth to panel length. Rigidity of other nodes shall be taken into consideration as indicated above.

Page 149: SNiP 2.05.03-84 Bridges and Culverts ENG

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 141

In all above mentioned cases bending moments of nodes rigidity shall be reduced by 20 % in all strength designs. Bending moments of bracing contiguity or horizontal diaphragms with eccentricity and of incomplete (with allowance for item 4.22*) centering of truss members shall be included completely. This requirements is also applied to bending moments appeared in horizontal and inclined members of lattice main trusses and bracing of their dead weight. At this, these bending moments can be considered as distributed over a parabola with ordinates in the middle of member length and at the ends thereof equal to 0.6 of the moment for the freely supported member.

4.60. *In the design for stability of lattice main truss members it is allowed not to consider bending moments caused by nodes rigidity, action of bracing and transverse beams.

In simple beam span structures the wind truss formed with chords of main trusses and longitudinal bracing is taken as simple beam truss, movable-supported in its plane at portals or bearing parts. In arches and with polygonal outline of truss chords the forces in the wind truss chords can be determined as for the plane truss, dividing the obtained results by cosine of inclination angle of the given member to the horizontal. In continuous through span structures the wind trusses formed with main trusses chords and longitudinal bracing, shall be designed as continuous beam span structures, assuming the upper truss as movable-supported at elastic supports -. portals onto the terminal supports, and onto each intermediate support of main trusses, and assuming the lower truss as being supported onto the rigid supports - . bearing parts.

4.63. Main trusses and bracing members can be not designed for bending against wind impact. Supporting portals shall be designed for reaction action of the corresponding wind truss, at this, horizontal components of longitudinal forces in the legs of inclined supporting portals shall be considered in the lower chords of beam span structures.

4.64. Chords of main trusses and lattice members, adjacent to the bearing node, shall be designed for the axial force and bending moment from the longitudinal braking force or traction force, which are transferred with the eccentricity to the fixed bearing part; as well as for bending moment from eccentricity of reaction of single-roller bearing part relative to the center of the bearing node.

Transverse reinforcing members, formed by lattice or web-plate diaphragms in the decks of box and П-shaped sections as well as transverse ribs and sheets of orthotropic plates and beam webs, shall be checked for strength, stability and force endurance, determined, as a rule, by the spatial analysis of decks. It is allowed to design transverse reinforcing elements as frames or beams, configuration thereof corresponds to the cross beam of the deck, and the section includes, together with transverse ribs and diaphragms, latticed or web-plate, the sheet with total width of 0.2 of the distance between adjacent webs of main beams, but not exceeding the distance between transverse reinforcing members. Transverse reinforcing members in sections of support have rigid supports in the place of bearing parts position. These reinforcing members are to be designed for the bearing reactions, local

SNiP 2.05.03-84 Page 142

vertical load and tangential stresses caused by bending and torque of spans, adjacent to the given deck support, and distributed over the contour of cross section in the sheets of webs and orthotropic plates. Transverse reinforcing members located in the span, and also in the place of concentrated force (for example, forces due to the back stays) application, shall be designed, taking into consideration all external forces and tangential stresses due to bending and torsion in the sheets of webs and orthotropic plates.

4.66. In design for the strength and endurance of linear railway span structures, located on the curve sections, having radius less than 1000 m, forces, appearing when the span structure is under the torsion as a spatial one, shall be considered.

4.67. In case of multistage construction of a structure the strength of sections on the intermediate stages of construction shall be checked by formula (141)-(158), adopting coefficients ∂,∂x, ∂y, Ψ, Ψx, Ψy as equal to 1.0. 4.68.

4.72. When bridge roadway is involved into the collaboration with lattice main trusses the decrease of forces in the main trusses chords is to be considered only in respect to the impact of live vertical load in calculations of all bolt-welded decks independently on the sequence of the erection thereof. The deformation of chords shall be considered as follows when determining forces in the bridge roadway: due to the all kinds of load - when the bridge roadway is involved into collaboration with the main trusses simultaneously with erection thereof; due to the live vertical load - when the bridge roadway is collaborated with main trusses after transmission of dead load to the main trusses.

For piles driven into the constructed before (compacted) embankment the horizontal (lateral) pressure is ignored. 3. Horizontal (lateral) pressure of earth to piers from the side of the span shall be accounted, if the construction project provides measures ensuring the action stability of this earth during the construction and operation of the bridge. 4. The abutment rear face inclination and forces of friction between fill-up soil and the face are ignored when determined the force Fh. 2. When the foundation footing embedding depth is above 3 m the resultant of horizontal (lateral) pressure of each i- (from the bottom ) layer of soil laid lower than natural ground surface shall be determined by the following formula

Notes. For rolled I-beams with parallel faces of flanges and melded members of I-beam and H-shapedthe coefficients ϕ, ϕ c, ϕ b as per present Appendix are used at own residual compressive stresses on flange edges not more than 49 MPa (500 kgf/cm2). For members of mentioned type with own residual compressive stresses on flange edges above 49 Mpa (500 kgf/cm2) when stability is designed in plane of flanges the used coefficients ϕ, ϕ c, ϕ b are given in brackets.

STABILITY DESIGN OF FLANGES AND WEBS OF MEMBERS SUPPORTED BY STIFFENERS

1. Rectangular sections of flanges and webs (further referred as plates) put in between orthogonal members supporting them by contour (stiffeners, flange for web and web for flanges) shall be designed for stability. In so doing, the following designed

dimensions and parameters of the plate to be checked are considered: a – the plate length equal to distance in between axes of cross stiffeners;

hef – designed width of the plate equal to: the distance in between the axes of flanges hw or axes of boxed web b∫, if rolled or bolted member has no stiffeners;

the distance in between the nearest marks of flange angles, if a composite member with bolt connections has no stiffeners; the distance from the flange (web) axis to the axis of the end longitudinal stiffeners h1 and hn, or to the distance in between axes of

adjacent longitudinal stiffeners hi (i = 2; 3; 4; 5…), if bolted or rolled member has longitudinal stiffeners; the distance from the end stiffener axis to the nearest mark of flange angle h1 and hn, or to the distance in between axes of adjacent

longitudinal stiffeners hi (i = 2; 3; 4; 5…), if a composite member with bolt connection has longitudinal stiffeners; t – the thickness of the plate to be checked;

t1, b1 – the thickness and designed width of the sheet orthogonal to the plate under check; into design width of the this sheet the following shall be included (to each side from the plate under check): in I-section - a part of the sheet ξ1 t1 wide, but not more than the width of overhang, but in box-section – a part 1/2 ξ2 t1, but not more than a half of the distance between box webs (here coefficients ξ1

and ξ2 shall be determined as per the item 4.55*); here σ and ‾σ are determined as per the item 2;

μ = a/hef;

here β is a coefficient taken as per Table1. Table 1

1. When considering concrete creep in statistically determinate structures it is necessary to define stresses balanced within longitudinal section (further – internal stresses) and relative deformations.

For structure which consists of solid web steel girder and reinforced slab integrated with it at the level of roadway (see the drawing), internal stresses due to creep of concrete in general case shall be calculated by the following formulae:

at the level of gravity center of concrete part of the section (tension)

in extreme fiber of steel girder bottom chord (tension or compression)

in extreme fiber of steel girder upper chord (compression)

in the end row bars of slab unstressed reinforcement when Er = Ers = Est (compression) loss of prestressing of stressed reinforcement (compression)

in extreme fiber of concrete (tension)

Relative deformations due to concrete creep in the level of gravity center of its section (see the drawing) shall be calculated by the following formulae:
