2 .1 DESIGN OF COMPONENTS
2.1.1.1 SPECIFICATIONS
❖ The deck slab is proposed to have the following dimensions as shown in the figure.
❖ The deck slab is designed for a clear span of 20m.
❖ The dimensions are thus 20m x 8m x 0.75m
❖ Two lanes each having a width of 4m are considered.
❖ The overall depth of the deck slab in 750mm and a clear cover of 40mm is adopted and
thus the effective depth is 700mm.
❖ Kerb slabs are designed to support the pedestrian pathway , having width of 1.5m on
either side of the deck slab. The depth of kerb slab is assumed as 1.05m
(750mm+300mm).
❖ Both the deck slab and kerb slab are made out of reinforced concrete of grade M40 and
the reinforcement used are of grade Fe 415.

STEP-3 : Live load BM & SF
Class A train of vehicles is taken into consideration.The maximum axle loads of 11.4 tonnes are
taken into consideration so as to produce the maximum bending moment

Effective width of dispersion perpendicular to span
Allowing for overlaps, the effective width of dispersion is obtained as 11.115m. Since, this value
is more than the width of deck, the effective width of dispersion perpendicular to span is limited
to 11.0m
