ABSTRACT
Grillage analysis is probably the most popular computer aided method for
analyzing bridge decks. This is because it is easy to comprehend and use, relatively
inexpensive, and has been proved to be reliably accurate for a wide variety of bridge types.
This method, pioneered for computer use by Lightfoot and Sawko represents the deck by an
equivalent grillage of beams. The dispersed bending and torsional stiffness in every region of
the slab are assumed for purpose of analysis to be concentrated in the nearest equivalent
grillage beam. The slab's longitudinal stiffnesses are concentrated in the longitudinal beams
while the transverse stiffnesses are concentrated in the transverse beams.
This method is applicable to bridge decks with simple as well as complex

configurations with almost the same ease and confidence. In the present work
STAAD.pro is used for obtaining accurate results.
STAAD.pro is equipped with state-of-art result verification capabilities that

include display and plotting of structure geometry, deflected / mode shape, bending moment /
shear force diagrams etc.
The present work deals with grillage analogy method for the comparative study of
RCC T Beam bridge by IRC:21-2000 & IRC:112:2011.
