Summary of total superstructure movement due to temperature

From Table 3.1B for “South of I-40”, structure movement is to be based on a temperature range from 10° F to 90° F.

Thermal expansion coefficient conversions are given by:

Steel: ΔL = L×0.000078×ΔT

Concrete: ΔL = L×0.000072×ΔT

where:

L = Length of the bridge that will move due to temperature changes (ft.) Each abutment will receive half of the total bridge movement.

L = 44 ft. + 43.75 ft. = 87.75 ft.

T = 80° F

 

the Design Guide also says, “The thermal movement used in the design of elastomeric bearing pads shall be not less than 75% of the total anticipated movement due to temperature

L = 87.75 ft.´ 0.000072 ´ 80°F ´ 75% = 0.38in.

The total superstructure movement due to temperature, shrinkage, and creep is then:

Δs = 0.38 + ΔCreep SH= 0.65 in.

 

 

Creep: Increase in strain with time due to a sustained load Creep

Concrete Creep - The time dependent increase of strain in hardened concrete subjected to sustained stress is defined as concrete creep

 Shrinkage: Reduction in volume that occurs as concrete cures and loses moisture

 Concrete Shrinkage - Shrinkage, after hardening of concrete, is the decrease with time of concrete volume. The decrease is due to changes in the moisture content of the concrete and physical-chemical changes, which occur without stresses attributable to actions external to the concrete. Shrinkage is conveniently expressed as a dimensionless strain under steady conditions of relative humidity and temperature.

 Armored joint One type of bridge joint that accommodates the thermal expansion and contraction of the superstructure. This type of joint uses

armoring angles and an elastomeric compression seal.

 Elastic Shortening - The concrete beam shortens at transfer when the prestressed strands are released and the force in them is transferred to the concrete. This elastic shortening is immediate and results in a reduction in the strain of the prestressing steel and therefore a

prestress loss. The loss from elastic shortening should be included in both initial and total loss computations.

 Temperature Gradient—Variation of temperature of the concrete over the cross-section.

Normal Weight Concrete—Concrete having a weight between 0.135 and 0.155 kcf.

Elastic—A structural material behavior in which the ratio of stress to strain is constant, the material returns to its original unloaded state upon load removal.

Inelastic—Any structural behavior in which the ratio of stress and strain is not constant, and part of the deformation remains after load removal.

Yield Line—A plastic hinge line.

Yield Line Method—A method of analysis in which a number of possible yield line patterns are examined in order to determine load-carrying capacity

Stiffness—Force effect resulting from a unit deformation

Lightweight Concrete—Concrete containing lightweight aggregate and having an air-dry unit weight not exceeding 0.120 kcf, as determined by ASTM C567. Lightweight concrete without natural sand is termed “all-lightweight concrete” and lightweight concrete in which all of the fine aggregate consists of normal weight sand is termed “sandlightweight concrete.”

 Structural Mass Concrete—Any large volume of concrete where special materials or procedures are required to cope with the generation of heat of hydration and attendant volume change to minimize cracking.

 Specified Strength of Concrete—The nominal compressive strength of concrete specified for the work and assumed for design and analysis of new structures.

 Caisson - Drilled Shaft Large diameter cast-in-place deep foundation units

Masonry Plate The bottom steel plate that connects the bridge bearing to the pedestal

Pedestal A concrete or built-up metal member constructed on top of a bridge seat or pier for the purpose of providing a bearing seat at a specific elevation

Plastic Deformation Displacements that occur outside the elastic range of the member, where the member does not return to its original undeformed shape when the load is removed.

Redundant Containing multiple load paths such that if a failure occurs in any one member, the structure would not collapse. (Typically refers to bridge superstructure.)

Retrofit Work done to an existing structure for the purpose of upgrading details that do not meet current standards.

Expansion Joints

ch25 هذا هو Expansion Joints.pdf

25.2 General Design Criteria

Expansion joints must accommodate movements produced by concrete shrinkage and creep, post- tensioning shortening, thermal variations, dead and live loads, wind and seismic loads, and structure settlements. Concrete shrinkage, post-tensioning shortening, and thermal variations are generally taken into account explicitly in design calculations. Because of uncertainties in predicting, and the increased costs associated with accommodating large displacements, seismic movements are usually not explicitly included in calculations.

Expansion joints should be designed to accommodate all shrinkage occurring after their instal- lation. For unrestrained concrete, ultimate shrinkage strain after installation, b, may be estimated as 0.0002 [1]. More-detailed estimations can be used which include the effect of ambient relative humidity and volume-to-surface ratios [2]. Shrinkage shortening of the bridge deck, Dshrink, in mm, is calculated as

Δshrink= (b)· (µ)· (Ltrib) · (1000 mm/m)      (25.1)

where

Ltrib =tributary length of structure subject to shrinkage; m

b = ultimate shrinkage strain after expansion joint installation; estimated as 0.0002 in lieu of more-refined calculations

µ = factor accounting for restraining effect imposed by structural elements installed before slab is cast [1]

= 0.0 for steel girders, 0.5 for precast prestressed concrete girders, 0.8 for concrete box girders and T-beams, 1.0 for flat slabs

Thermal displacements are calculated using the maximum and minimum anticipated bridge deck temperatures. These extreme values are functions of the geographic location of the structure and the bridge type. Thermal movement, in mm, is calculated as

Dtemp= (a)· (Ltrib)· (dT) · (1000 mm/m)          (25.2)

where

α= coefficient of thermal expansion; 0.000011 m/m/°C for concrete and 0.000012 m/m/°C for steel

Ltrib = tributary length of structure subject to thermal variation; m

dT = temperature variation; °C

Any other predictable movements following expansion joint installation, such as concrete post- tensioning shortening and creep, should also be included in the design calculations.

4.4 Bearing Pad Design

Elastomeric bearing pads, plain or reinforced, are typically used on bridges in New Mexico. The LRFD Specifications give two design procedures for reinforced elastomeric pads in Sections 14.7.5 (Method B) and 14.7.6 (Method A). The stress limits associated with Method A usually result in a bearing with a lower capacity than a bearing designed using Method B. This increased capacity resulting from the use of Method B requires additional testing and quality control. The Department prefers to use Method A as it is a conservative design and requires less testing (See Chapter 7 of the Design Guide).

Assume that transverse movement at all bearings will be prevented by concrete keeper blocks or by other methods. In addition, the pier bearings are considered fixed in the longitudinal direction. Longitudinal movements are unrestrained at the expansion bearings. As discussed below, the Design Guide specifies temperature ranges to be used in calculating structure movements in New Mexico.

The design method presented in the LRFD Specifications differentiates between locations where shear deformations are permitted and where they are not. The fixed bearings are prevented from deforming in shear by the dowels or by other methods. At the expansion bearings, shear deformations will occur.

3.1.7.1 Temperature

Forces, stresses, and movements in bridge components and members due to temperature variations (both atmospheric and in construction materials) must be calculated and provided for in such items as elastomeric bearing pads, expansion bearing devices, deck joint sealing systems, and deck joint openings.

New Mexico temperature ranges used in movement and force calculations are listed in Table 3.1A.

Note: Each bridge location should be evaluated for average temperature to make sure the elevation of 4500 ft. is applicable.

The full temperature range is used in design of the superstructure and substructure because the structure is anticipated to have these full movements during its life.

The thermal movement used in the design of elastomeric bearing pads shall be not less that 75% of the total anticipated movement due to temperature. The assumption made is that the girders will not be placed on the pads at the upper or lower end of the temperature range.

The designer shall specify the range of temperature in which the girders shall be placed.

Unless a more precise method of measuring the temperature of the girders is used, the setting temperature of the girders or bridge component shall be taken as the average of the actual air temperature over the 24-hour period immediately before the setting of the girders or component.

The size of deck joint seals and required deck openings may be found in the appropriate standard drawings issued by the Department.

These standards consider factors in addition to temperature, such as creep and shrinkage. If the movement length of a structure exceeds that given in the standard drawings, a special joint seal may be required. If situations arise which require special consideration, contact the State Bridge Engineer for assistance.

Thermal expansion coefficient conversions are given by:

Steel: ΔL = L×0.000078×ΔT

Concrete: ΔL = L×0.000072×ΔT

where ΔL is expressed in inches and

L is expressed in feet and

ΔT, the change in temperature, is in °F.

Generally the effect of temperature gradient need not be considered.

4.4.1 Abutment (Exp.) Bearing Pad Design

Structure Movement

In the longitudinal direction, superstructure movement occurs due to the combined effects of temperature changes plus creep and shrinkage of the prestressed girders.

 

Temperature:

Table 3.1B of the Design Guide specifies temperature ranges based on the values given in the LRFD Specification Section 3.12.2.

From Table 3.1B for “South of I-40”, structure movement is to be based on a temperature range from 10° F to 90° F. The Design Guide states, “The full temperature range is used in design of the superstructure because the structure is anticipated to have these full movements during its life.” However, the Design Guide also says, “The thermal movement used in the design of elastomeric bearing pads shall be not less than 75% of the total anticipated movement due to temperature.”

 

L = L ´ 0.000072 ´ T

where:

L = Length of the bridge that will move due to temperature changes (ft.) Each abutment will receive half of the total bridge movement.

L = 44 ft. + 43.75 ft. = 87.75 ft.

T = 80° F

 

L = 87.75 ft.´ 0.000072 ´ 80°F ´ 75% = 0.38in.

  

The total superstructure movement due to temperature, shrinkage, and creep is then:

Δs = 0.38 + 0.27 = 0.65 in.

 

Where

(see page 38)

Δcreep shrinkage = ΔSPAN _1 + ΔSPAN _2 /2

ΔCR+SH = 0.081in. + 0.385in. / 2 = 0.27 in.

as follow

5. SUBSTRUCTURE AND FOUNDATION DESIGN page 43

Temperature, creep, and shrinkage are the final loads that need to be entered. RC-PIER

contains individual load screens for each of these. However, for this example, we have

chosen to include the creep and shrinkage movement with the temperature by calculating

a contributing length that results in the same structural movement as the sum of the three.

Pier 1 & 2 bearings are fixed and each takes half the thermal, creep, and shrinkage

movement from Span 2. (Span 1 movement is taken up by the expansion bearing at the

abutment.) من هنا نأخذ نصف 88 يساوي 44 Change in temperature is specified as 80°F for concrete bridges in the Design Guide.

Remember:

From Table 3.1B for “South of I-40”, structure movement is to be based on a temperature range from 10° F to 90° F from where Change in temperature = 90-10=80
