6 Workflow 4/21/2015 Bridge Modeling Workflow Roadway Elements Import from Civil InRoads, GEOPAK, MXROAD Enter in LBS Superstructure Substructure Analysis Design Load Rating Bentley Systems, Incorporated Roadway Element Commands Roadway elements define the horizontal, vertical and cross section geometry for the bridge deck The cross section defines the left and right edges of the slab Tapered cross sections define tapered slabs Bentley Systems, Incorporated 6
7 Import From MicroStation Import alignments and beam paths directly from MicroStation Bentley Systems, Incorporated Roadway Elements Roadway Definition Combines alignment, profile and cross section to define roadway/slab surface and edges Bentley Systems, Incorporated 7
8 Superstructure Commands Define the components of the superstructure 3D bridge model automatically updated geometrically and for loading 3D Model can be visualized at every stage of model definition Bentley Systems, Incorporated Superstructure Pier & Abutment Locations Locate bridge support centerlines Define as pier or abutment Assign skew, if any Can be offset to alignment Define bearing locations Changes are automatically reflected in the overall model Bentley Systems, Incorporated 8
9 Superstructure Deck Slab Define concrete deck longitudinal bounds When the deck is defined as multiple slab units, these can be used in the Deck Placement Sequence Command Sacrificial wearing surface included for dead load calculation Slab is considered non-composite until shear connectors are added Bentley Systems, Incorporated Superstructure Deck Reinforcing Steel Used in section property calculations as stipulated by the AASHTO Spec. Strength: Article c sections in negative bending Service: Article Used to determine minimum steel requirements per Article Bentley Systems, Incorporated 9
10 Superstructure Member Groups Define the member layout or framing plan straight or curved Simple or continuous spans Define from MicroStation elements A single bridge model can contain multiple member groups Member groups can be copied in their entirety (including members) to different locations Bentley Systems, Incorporated Superstructure Standard Section List Select standard shapes for Cross frames Main members Bentley Systems, Incorporated 10
11 Superstructure Member Definition Define member geometry using schedule based methodology Web transitions Copy members Hybrid girders Welded plate or standard section Bentley Systems, Incorporated Superstructure Cross-Frame / Diaphragm Definition Struts, X, V, inverted V Build from standard shapes Control orientation of members Analyze as frame or truss Used in grillage model as equivalent beam using methods from NCHRP Report 725 Individual member forces computed Bentley Systems, Incorporated 11
