Bracket for Future Prestressing

The following calculations are carried out following the design procedures of " Concrete Bridge Practice :
Analysis, Design and Economics " by Dr. V.K.Raina. )
Basic Inputs
1.
Distance of point load from face of support
a
=
1264
mm
2.
Overall depth of section at face of support
h
=
3300
mm
3.
Clear Cover
c
=

mm
4.
Dia of main reinforcement
=
25
mm

5.
Effective Depth of Section (with double layer reinf.)
d'
=
3222.5 mm
6.
Design Depth of Section ( d = 0.8 d' )
d
=
2578
mm
7.
Depth of section at edge
s
=
1850
mm
8.
Width of Cantilever / Corbel / Bracket

Ultimate Shear Value

kN
Hu
12.
Actual Horizontal Load
=
0
kN
Conditions
Condition I
For the section to be designed as a corbel " a / d' " shall be less than 1.
Hence a / d'
=
1264 / 3222.5
=
0.392
< 1.0
As the ratio " a / d' " is less than 1 so the section is to be designed as a corbel
Condition II
For the section to be designed as a corbel " s / d' " shall be greater than 0.5.
Hence s / d'
=
1850 / 3222
=
0.57
> 0.5 Proceed with the design
Loadings

Now the design for the corbel is carried out as per the following steps.
