DESIGN EXAMPLE 1 This example illustrates the design of an interior and exterior beam of a precast prestressed concrete beam bridge using fully prestressed beams with harped bonded strands in accordance with the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, Third Edition, Customary US Units and through the 2005 Interims. The bridge consists of a 120-foot simple span. The bridge profile is shown in Figure 1 and the typical section is shown in Figure 2. The concrete deck is 9 inches thick and the abutments are not skewed. 120'-0" Figure 1 – Profile Centerline bridge 1'-0" 18'-0" 18'-0" 1'-0" 10" thick concrete diaphragm AASHTO Type VI Beam 4'-9" 9'-6" 4'-9" 4'-9" 9'-6" 4'-9" Near Midspan Near Abutment Figure 2 – Typical Section DESIGN PARAMERS Corrosion exposure condition for the stress limit for tension in the beam concrete: severe Provisions for a future wearing surface: 0.025 k/ft 2 Rail dead load per each rail: 0.278 k/foot Diaphragm dead load per each 10-inch thick diaphragm: 5.590 k Deck concrete 28-day strength: 5 ksi ' = 5 ksi f c ( )( ) 15 . = 15 .

Although the haunch between the top of the girder and the bottom of the deck slab is not included in the composite section properties, it is included in the dead loads. In order to calculate the composite section properties, first calculate the effective flange width. Effective Flange Width (4.6.2.6.1) Calculate the effective flange width for the interior beam first. For the interior beam, the effective flange width may be taken as the least of: a) One-quarter of the effective span length: 120 feet for simple spans (0.25)(120)(12) = 360 in b) Twelve time the average thickness of the slab, 9 inches, plus the greater of: The web thickness: 8 inches One-half of the top flange of the girder: 42 inches (0.5)(42) = 21 in The greater of these two values is 21 inches and: (12)(9) + 21 = 129 in c) The average spacing of adjacent beams: 9.5 feet (9.5)(12) = 114 in The least of these is 114 inches and therefore, the effective flange width is 114 inches. For the exterior beam, the effective flange width may be taken as one-half the effective flange width of the adjacent interior beam, 114 inches, plus the least of: a) One-eight of the effective span length: 120 feet (0.125)(120)(12) = 180 in b) Six times the average thickness of the slab, 9 inches, plus the greater of: One-half of the web thickness: 8 inches (0.5)(8) = 4 in One-quarter of the top flange of the girder: 42 inches (0.25)(42) = 10.5 in The greater of these two values is 10.5 inches and: (6)(9) + 10.5 = 64.5 in Example 1, July 2005 DRAFT 2
c) The width of the overhang: 4.75 feet (4.75)(12) = 57 in The least of these is 57 inches and the effective flange width is: (0.5)(114) + 57 = 114 in Composite Section Properties area of non-composite beam or deck (in 2 ) A = d = distance between the centers of gravity of the beam or deck and the composite section (in) moment of inertia of non-composite beam or deck (in 4 ) I o = I comp = moment of inertia of composite section (in 4 ) section modulus of non-composite section, extreme bottom beam fiber (in 3 ) S b = section modulus of composite section, extreme bottom beam fiber (in 3 ) S bc = section modulus of composite section, extreme top deck slab fiber (in 3 ) S slab top = section modulus of non-composite section, extreme top beam fiber (in 3 ) S t = section modulus of composite section, extreme top beam fiber (in 3 ) S tc = y b = distance from the center of gravity of the non-composite section to the bottom of the beam (in) y bc = distance from the center of gravity of the composite section to the bottom of the beam (in) y slab top = distance from the center of gravity of the composite section to the top of the deck slab (in) y t = distance from the center of gravity of the non-composite section to the top of the beam (in) y tc = distance from the center of gravity of the composite section to the top of the beam (in) w = weight of the non-composite beam (k/ft) For the composite section, the modular ratio, n, to account for different concrete strengths in the beam and deck slab is: E 4074 deck = = = n 07906 .
