B Longitudinal Forces :-
a) Braking Force :-
The braking force will be 20% of Train of Loads ocuupying the Span and will be acting at 1.20m above
RFL of 450.420 m
Consider Class 70-R wheeled : Height of S.S = 0.790 + 0.10 m
Braking force = 20% of 92.000 0.890
92 x 20% = 18.400 t
Force to be considered on each pier = 18.400 / 2 = 9.200 t
Hence Moments due to Braking force from Bearing Level of 449.530 + 443.055 & + 442.455
Upto Bottom of Pier = 9.200 x ( +449.53 - +443.055 ) = 59.570 t-m
Upto Bottom of Foundation + 442.5 m
9.200 x ( +449.53 - +442.455 ) = 65.090 t-m
Consider Class A Loading : Height of S.S = 0.600 m
Braking force = 20% of ( 36.4 x 2 )
= 72.800 x 20 %
= 14.560 t
Hence Moments due to Braking force from Bearing Level of 449.530 443.055 & 442.455
Upto Bottom of Pier = 7.280 x ( 449.530 - 443.055 ) = 47.138 t-m
Upto Bottom of Foundation cap = 7.280 x ( 449.530 - 442.455 ) = 51.506 t-m
b) Water Current :-
Presumed to be hitting the Pier at 20o to flow.

Mean velocity of Water Current = 0.640 m/sec
Max. Velocity @ FSL = V = 2 x v
= 2 x 0.64 = 0.905 m/sec

As per Cl. 212.3 of IRC:6-1966 - Table - wind pressures,
H P So, for H= 6.457 m
for 2m 52 kg/m 2
Say P= 75.059 kg/m2
for 4m 63 kg/m2
6m 73 kg/m2
8m 82 kg/m2
Wind force on Deck = 75.05875 x 1.765 x 10.74 = 0.711 t
2x 1000
This force will be acting at half the height of the deck Level =
449.530 + 1.765 = + 450.413 m

Wind force on Moving Loads :- As per Cl. 212.4 of IRC:-6:2000.
The Intensity of wind force on moving loads = 300 kg/m
Acting @ 1.5 m above RFL = 451.920 m
Length of Class -A , vehicle = 5.50 m
Hence force acting on Live Load = 300 x 5.500 = 1.650 t
1000
Force effected on each Pier = 1.650 / 2 = 0.825 t
Calculation of wind force moments on Deck :-
Due to Wind force on Superstructure :-
At Bottom of Pier = 0.711 x ( 450.413 - 443.055 ) = 5.234 t-m
At Footing = 0.711 x ( 450.413 - 442.455 ) = 5.661 t-m
due to wind force on moving loads :-
At Bottom of Pier = 0.825 x ( 451.920 - 443.055 ) = 7.314 t-m
At Footing = 0.825 x ( 451.920 - 442.455 ) = 7.809 t-m
Total Wind moments on Deck :- (LWL condition)
At Bottom of Pier = 5.234 + 7.314 = 12.548 tm
At Footing = 5.661 + 7.809 = 13.470 tm
But Wind force as per Cl.212.6 of IRC:6-2000 -
Minimum 450 kg/m of wind on loaded structure acting at RFL = 450.420 m
Hence force on Deck 450 x 10.740 = 2.417 t
=
1000 2
Moments due to this force :
At Bottom of Pier = 2.417 x ( +450.42 - +443.055 ) = 17.798 t-m
At Footing = 2.417 x ( +450.42 - +442.455 ) = 19.247 t-m
The Moments as per Cl.212.3 & Cl. 212.4, will be considered.
Wind force as per Cl. 212.7 :- On Unloaded Structure : One span Laid = 10.740 m ;
Intensity of wind = 240 kg/m2 ;
This is acting @ half the height of Deck = +450.413 m
Wind Force on Deck = 10.740 x 0.883 x 240 = 2.275 t
1000
Force on Pier = 2.275 / 2 = 1.137 t
Moments due to this force : Cl.212.7 of IRC:6-1966,
At Bottom of Pier 1.137 x ( +450.41 - +443.055 ) = 8.368 t-m
At Footing 1.137 x ( +450.41 - +442.455 ) = 9.051 t-m
Case - 2 :- FSL Condition :-
FSL = 445.61 m Spans Length = 10.740 m
Height of Deck above FSL = 450.420 - 445.605 = 4.815 m
As per Cl. 212.3 of IRC:6-1966 - Table - wind pressures,
H P So, for H= 4.82 m
for 2.00 m 52.00 kg/m 2
Say P= 67.075 kg/m2
for 4.00 m 63.00 kg/m2
6.00 m 73.00 kg/m2
Wind force on Deck = 67.075 x 0.883 x 10.740 = 0.318 t
2 x 1000 < 0.711 t

This force will be acting at half the height of the deck Level = 450.413 m
