12 Approximate Methods of Design Strip Method APPROXIMATE DESIGN METHODS Strip Method (4.6.2) Section 4 provides general information and applicability of approximate methods. Provides formulas for calculating the strip widths for various types of decks. Provides information on the distribution of wheel loads, live load force effects and cross sectional frame distributions. Approximate Methods of Design Strip Method Approximate Design Method (The Strip Method) Important items to consider when using this method include: A. The deck is subdivided into theoretical live load design strips that are perpendicular to the supporting structural components. The strips may be interior or edge strips (Notational Edge Beam). The strips may also be longitudinal or transverse. Can be used for all deck types EXCEPT: (Article ) For CIP Concrete deck with SIP Forms TD 1.) Fully filled and partially filled composite grid decks 2.) The top slabs of segmental concrete box girders 12

13 Approximate Methods of Design Strip Method B. Place truck or tandem on deck to get the maximum effect. The maximum effect is then applied on the corresponding strip width to obtain effects on a unit basis. C. Use the max. positive moment for design in all positive moment regions. D. Use the max. negative moment for design in all negative moment regions. E. May use other design aids for decks containing prefabricated elements. F. For slab type bridges, such as CIP slab or stressed wood deck which are reinforced longitudinally and the span length is more than 15 ft., the provisions of AASHTO section must be applied. G. When the deck spans in the direction of traffic ( parallel ), LL strips shall: < = 40 in. wide for open grids <= 144 in. (12 ft.) for all other decks with multilane loading Approximate Methods of Design Strip Method H. Instead of performing a 3-D FE Analysis & determining strip widths to get the live load moment effects, AASHTO provides a deck slab design table in the Appendix to Chapter 4. The assumptions used to develop this table include: Moments computed using the equivalent strip method Moments apply to concrete slabs / parallel girders Multiple presence factors are included Dynamic load allowance is included Moments are for decks supported on at least 3 girders Table A4-1-maximum live load moments per unit width 13

14 Approximate Methods of Design Strip Method I. When spacing of support in secondary direction > 1.5 X spacing of support in primary direction one way slab action prevails and all appropriate wheel loads shall be applied in the primary strip direction and distribution reinforcement shall be included in the secondary direction as per article (for Conc. slabs ) as follows: In which: S = the effective span length taken as equal to the effective length specified in article Approximate Methods of Design Strip Method J. If support spacing in secondary direction < 1.5 X primary support spacing then model 2 way slab as a series of intersection strips. The wheel load distribution = stiffness of strip / total stiffness intersecting strips. In which the strip stiffness is computed as : K s = E I s / S I s = Moment of Inertia of the Strip S = Spacing of the Supporting Components K. It is possible to treat strip as a continuous beam or a simply supported beam as required. L. Wheel loads shall be treated as concentrated loads or patch loads of intensity of P / Tire Contact Area ( 20 in. X 10 in. ). 14

Approximate Methods of Design Deck Overhang Design Design Case 1 At Design Section for the First Bay (See Previous Sketch) A. Extract M 1 and M 2 values per unit length for barrier self weights from the deck design. B. Set the value for M 1 due to collision equal to the barrier moment capacity per unit at the base. C. Calculate M 2 per unit length due to collision by similar triangles assuming M 1 / M 2 due to barrier weight = M 1 / M 2 due to collision. Determine M u per unit length at the design section by interpolation or simply assume it to be equal to M 1 due to collision (Conservative). D. Distribute M U due to collision ( the adjusted barrier moment capacity ) in the critical length Lc by the critical length plus 30 degree end distributions. E. Compute M u per unit length including the deck, barrier and future wearing surface weights and the adjusted barrier moment capacity just computed. F. And then : 18

19 Approximate Methods of Design Deck Overhang Design F. Compute the axial force per unit length in the first bay section as the total transverse resistance of the barrier divided by the critical length of the yield line failure pattern plus 2 times the height of the wall plus 30 degree end distributions (i.e for our simple example).

Compute the LL & I Moment using a multiple presence factor of 1.2 for one lane loaded, a dynamic load allowance of 0.33 and a wheel load as shown in the previous illustration. This moment shall be distributed on the computed strip width. C. Determine Mu per unit length which includes the deck, barrier and future wearing surface weights already computed in Case 1 and also the newly computed M LLI value. D.

( ) Properties: f c = 4ksi, F y = 60ksi, Concrete Density = 145 pcf, 2 ½ in bituminous Future wearing surface = 140 pcf ( ) Requirements : Design the Deck using the Strip Method in accordance with the AASHTO LRFD Specifications. 25

26 Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method Typical Section Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method Design Step 1 Select Deck Slab Design Method Use the Strip Method. Design Step 2 Select Trial Deck Slab Thickness The specifications require that the minimum thickness of a concrete deck, excluding any provisions for grinding, grooving and sacrificial surface should not be less than 7 in. ( ). Most state Jurisdictions require a minimum deck slab thickness of 8 in. (including a ½ in. integral wearing surface). 26

27 Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method In addition, the overall design may include a check of the total superstructure depth (Table ) This rarely controls. (i.e.) 0.032L =.032 x 100 x 12 = 38 in. d girder alone = 48 in. Okay does not control Therefore Select 8.5 in. thick deck slab as an initial thickness Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method Design Step 3 Select Overhang Thickness Using a deck overhang thickness of approximately ¾ in to 1 in. thicker than the deck thickness has proven to be beneficial in past designs. For this Example, an overhang thickness of 9½ in. (including the ½ in. sacrificial layer) is assumed in the design. Design Step 4 Locate Negative Moment Design Section The distance from CL Girder to design section for negative moment in the deck = 1/4 flange width ( ) Girder Top Flange Width b f = 12 in. One-fourth of the girder top flange width = 3 in. 27

(145 pcf) / 12 in. /ft. = 107 psf ( Includes concrete in the SIP Forms ) DC 2 = Concrete Barrier load ( Each barrier ) = 520 plf DW = Future Wearing Surface (Table ) = (2½ in.) / 12 ( 140 pcf) = 29 psf The dead load moments must be computed for the deck slab by either : A 3 Dimensional Finite Element Analysis with DC1, DC2 & DW Analyze as a Continuous Beam with DC1 & DW & M = w L 2 /10 Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method Table 1 Un-Factored Dead Load Moments ( K-Ft / Ft ) Table 2 Controlling Dead Load Moments ( K-Ft / Ft ) OR For Example: M DC1 (maximum) = (0.107 klf)(9.75ft ) 2 / 10 = 1.02 k-ft / ft 28

30 Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method The dead load moments in tables 1 & 2 are in units of K ft/ ft while the live load moments in table 3 are in K-ft. Now divide the live load moments by the strip width illustrated below in Figure 1 Figure 1 Equivalent Strip Widths In Figure 1, X represents the distance from the load to the point of support and S represents the spacing of the supporting components, each measured in units of feet. The equivalent strip width is then computed in units of inches. X = 2.50 ft 1.0 ft ( From Curb ) = 1.50 ft & S = 9.75 ft.

Table 4 Load Factors for the Strength 1 Limit State Therefore, the maximum factored positive moment in bay 2 (0.4 pt) is: M pos = 1.25(0.38 k-ft/ft) +1.25(0.19 k-ft/ft) +1.50(0.09 k-ft/ft) +1.75(6.49 k-ft/ft) = k-ft/ft = in-k/ft The maximum factored negative moment in bay 1 (0. pt) is: M neg = 1.25(-0.74 k-ft/ft) +1.25(-1.66 k-ft/ft) +1.50(-0.06 k-ft/ft) +1.75(-6.07 k-ft/ft) = k-ft/ft = in-k/ ft 31

32 Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method Design Step 7 Design the Deck for Positive Flexure For our design, lets use # 5 bars and we will use LRFD reinforced concrete design methods to arrive at the following results: d = effective depth (in) = total t bottom cover ½ bar diameter Integral WS = 8 ½ in 1in ½ (0.625in) 0.5in = 6.69 in. a = d - d 2 2 M u / 0.85 Φ b f c = 6.69 in 6.69in 2 2 ( in k ) / 0.85 (0.90 ) (12 in )(4ksi) = in.

33 Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method Check Minimum Reinforcement Requirements for Flexure ( ) AASHTO requires the Factored Flexural resistance of the section M n to be at least equal to the LESSER of 1.2 times the cracking moment M cr determined on the basis of elastic stress distribution OR 1.33 times the factored moment. Calculation by LRFD Concrete design methods yield: M n = 17.1 k-ft M cr = 7.89 k-ft M n > [1.2 (M cr ) = (1.2 )(7.89 k-ft ) = 9.47 k-ft ] Okay And also: 1.33 (146.5 k-in/ft) / 12 = 16.2 k-ft/ft > 9.47 k-ft/ft Okay Note : maximum reinforcement provisions have been removed from the LRFD code in ( ) 33

34 Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method Check AASHTO Crack Control Provisions (Not for Empirical Method ) The crack control provisions are newly updated within the LRFD code and are based upon research done by Frosch (2001). The current LRFD code requirements are as follows: ( ) The spacing s of the mild steel reinforcement in the layer closest to the tension face shall satisfy the following equation 8.5in #5@6 in Bottom Transverse Reinforcement Reinforced CIP Concrete Deck Slab Example- Strip Method The maximum positive service moment is first computed: = 85.8 k-in / ft d c = 1.0in (Table ) (radius of # 5 Bar) = in (then by traditional service load methodologies) f s = 23.3 ksi βs = 1 + [ dc / 0.7 (h dc)] = 1+[ in / 0.7 ( 8.5 in in) ] = 1.26 γ e = Exposure Factor => use 1.0 for class 1 [700 γe / βs fs ] 2dc = [700 ( 1.0 ) / 1.26 ( 23.3 ksi )] 2( in) = 21.2 in s = 8 in < 21.2 in Okay Section satisfies the AASHTO Crack control provisions in the positive moment region 34
