751.34.1 General

751.34.1.1 Material Properties

Concrete
Class B Concrete (Substructure)	$\,f'_{c}$	= 3.0 ksi
	$\,n$	= 10

Class B-1 Concrete (Substructure) may also be used in special cases (See Project Manager). The following equations shall apply to both concrete classes:

Concrete modulus of elasticity,

$\,E_{c}=33000K_{1}w_{c}{\sqrt[{1.5}]{f'_{c}}}$

Where:
$\,w_{c}$	= unit weight of non-reinforced concrete = 0.145 kcf
$\,K_{1}$	= correction factor for source of aggregate = 1.0

Modulus of rupture:	For minimum reinforcement,	$\,f_{r}=0.37{\sqrt {f'_{c}}}$
	For all other calculations,	$\,f_{r}=0.24{\sqrt {f'_{c}}}$
$\,{\sqrt {f'_{c}}}$  is in units of ksi

Reinforcing Steel
Minimum yield strength,	$\,f_{y}$	= 60.0 ksi
Steel modulus of elasticity,	$\,E_{s}$	= 29000 ksi

751.34.2 Design

751.34.2.1 Limit States and Factors

In general, each component shall satisfy the following equation:

$\,Q=\sum \eta _{i}\gamma _{i}Q_{i}\leq \phi R_{n}=R_{r}$

Where:

$\,Q$	= Total factored force effect
$\,Q_{i}$	= Force effect
$\,\eta _{i}$	= Load modifier
$\,\gamma _{i}$	= Load factor
$\,\phi$	= Resistance factor
$\,R_{n}$	= Nominal resistance
$\,R_{r}$	= Factored resistance

Limit States

The following limit states shall be considered for abutment design:

STRENGTH – I

STRENGTH – III

STRENGTH – IV

STRENGTH – V

SERVICE – I

FATIGUE

See LRFD Table 3.4.1-1 and LRFD 3.4.2 for Loads and Load Factors applied at each given limit state.

Resistance factors

STRENGTH limit states, see LRFD 6.5.4.2 and LRFD 5.5.4.2

For all other limit states, $\,\phi$ = 1.00

Load Modifiers

751.34.2.2 Loads

Dead Loads

Loads from stringers, girders, etc. shall be applied as concentrated loads applied at the centerline of bearing. Loads from concrete slab spans shall be applied as uniformly distributed loads.

Live Loads

Loads from stringers, girders, etc. shall be applied as concentrated loads applied at the centerline of bearing. Dynamic load allowance (impact) should be included for the design of the beam. No dynamic load allowance should be included for foundation design.

For wings with detached wing walls, no portion of the bridge live load shall be distributed to the detached wall. The detached wing wall shall be designed as a retaining wall. The weight of the safety barrier curb on top of the wall shall be included in the dead load.

Collision

Collision shall be designed if abutments are located within a distance of 30.0 feet to the edge of roadway, or within a distance of 50.0 feet to the centerline of a railway track and conditions do not qualify for exemptions given in EPG 751.2.2.5. If designed for, the collision force shall be a static force of 400 kips assumed to act in any direction in a horizontal plane, at a distance of 4.0 feet above ground.

Temperature

The force due to expansion or contraction applied at bearing pads are not used for stability or pile bearing computations. However, the movement due to temperature should be considered in the bearing pad design and expansion device design.

Distribution of Loads

Wing with Detached Wing Wall

When Wing Length, L, is greater than 22'-0", use maximum of 22'-0" rectangular wing wall combined with a detached wing wall.

(*)	Detached wing wall shown is for illustration purpose only. Design detached wing wall as a retaining wall.

(*)	Detached wing wall shown is for illustration purpose only. Design detached wing wall as a retaining wall.
(**)	Use retaining wall design.

751.34.2.3 Design Assumptions

(1)	Beam
	The beam shall be assumed continuous over supports at centerline of piles. One half of the dead load of the approach slab shall be included in the beam design.

(2)	Wing and Backwall
	(a)	Vertical Loads
		The minimum steel placed horizontally in wings shall be #6 bars at 8" centers, each face. These bars should be adequate to support the wing. See figure below.

Part Section Thru Backwall and Wing

Note:

The minimum steel (horizontally) in the corner haunch at the junction of the wing and backwall shall be #6 bars at 8" cts. "".
