INFORMATION FOR DESIGNERS + Prostressing strands 129 mim diameter 7-wire super strands (low relaxation) conforming to BS $896; 1960 are used. + Standard Strand Pattern Positions Designers are recommended to choose from the ‘standard’ strand pattern positions shown for each beam type when finalising their combination of total prostressing force andl eccentricity to meet their particular design requirements Use of standard strand patiern positions allows a reduction in production cests, thus benefitting the client. + 26-day concrete cube strengths Hume Prestressed bridge Bears are made with high strength concrete having a 28-day cube strengths of between 45 Nim cid 50 Ninn. © Curing Hume Prestressed Bridge Beams are cured by covering and maintaining the beams in a wet condition by the application of low pressure steam until the specified transler cube strength is reached, + Cubes strength of concrete at transfer Although achievable, transfer cube sirongths above 4 Nim? should be avoided where possible. A transler cube strength of up to 98 Nimm2 should be adequate for mest cases. It may be possible to avoid high teansler cube strengths by either a small increase in the construction depth or by the use of debonding. + Stacking Each beam should be stacked on timber bearers placed at about 300 mm to $00 mm from each beam enc, ‘+ End slots for dowels at fixed ond bearings Slots at beam ends can be formed in the bottom flange to accomodate dowel bars at fixed bearing positions where required. + Beam Lengths and Transportation Subject to design considerations, Hume Prestressed Bridge Bsams can be made to lengths (subject to end shortening upon transler of prestress) requited by the designer. Beam lengtis should preferubly be specilied in increments of 50 mm. Maximum beam lengths of up to 27 mettes have been successfully transported from Hume factories and lounched. Where access toa bridge site may be a problem, itis recommended that a chack be made espocially whon using long (>22 m) beams for romote areas. For long beans, its highly recommended that some top reinforcement (inthe form of strands! bars] be placed near the top of the beam in order to facilitate transportation without cracking of the beams,Diaphragm hole sizes and locations Standard sized diaphragm holes (see fig | & 2) for each beam type are located at regular spacings as shown, Adoption of these standard hole sizes and locations will allow a reduction in production cost of the beams. Skewed Beam Ends Skewed ends tobeams are expensive and should be avoided where possible. Specification of beam ends with the precise angle of skew to suit the bridge alignment generally increases the beam cost. Where skewed ends are necessary, t the ‘sationalised skew anlee’ shown in the ts wt reduce beam costs with no disad eto the d ‘The use of the rationalised skew angles below ensures that the maximum displacement 's' of the comers of the beans (see ligure below) does not exceed 80 min for M beens, Reinforcement in Skewed Beams Only reinforcement in the end zone of the beam should be skewed, All olher reinforcement in the body of the beam should be detailed square to the section, 1 2 3 30°40 3600 10 20 x Rationalsed © Maimum’S'(mm)for Skew angle Stowangiet intermediate skew at Smax boamerd angles for M-beas* o 4 50° 10 6 151 a 6 253 a 40 40" ws 4 ri Gotten SH, los ra so a0" suse 0 560" = Nearest Angle fom 7 solimn Example: Actual skew angle = 27.5; Use of Column 2 indicates that a skew angle of 253 Required skew corresponds oa displacement § of about SOmm.
