12 1. Introduction Balanced Cantilever Bridge 1. Balanced cantilever construction implies construction of cantilever segments from a pier in a balanced fashion on each side until the mid span is reached and a closure known as stitch/key segment is made with other half span cantilever constructed from the preceding pier. 2. The procedure is as follows: The form work is suspended from the end of the last segment. The new segment is cast and once the concrete has developed a predetermined strength, the section is post tensioned to the rest of the bridge. The same erection process is repeated till the structure is completed. 12

13 1. Introduction Balanced Cantilever Bridge PSC Segments Stitch Segment End Span 13

14 1. Introduction Balanced Cantilever Bridge 14

15 1. Introduction Balanced Cantilever Bridge FCM (Free cantilever Method) 1. It is generally used in a terrain where obstacles such as rivers, creeks and roads lie under the bridge, which present difficulties in installing conventional shoring. 2. FCM is generally used for long span bridges, which are typically accompanied with high piers. 3. Since it involves constructing balanced cantilevers from a pier, it is often referred to as a balanced cantilever bridge. 15

16 1. Introduction Balanced Cantilever Bridge 1. Less Space Required Construction in urban area where temporary shoring would disrupt traffic services below. 2. Less Formwork Required 3. Larger Spans Useful where span length is more but launching of girder is not possible. 1. More efficient, safe and economical Easy adoptability to curvature and super elevation. Useful for odd sizes, single span etc. 16

19 Suitable for Longer Spans 19

20 Considerations for a Bridge Engineer 1. Camber Due to cantilever action there will be some deformations, due to which, some construction defects may arise, specially when installing the stitch segment 2. Prestress Losses 3. Creep and Shrinkage Effect 4. Proper Construction Sequences 20

Live Modelling Model Introduction Specification of Structure Bridge Type: Balanced Cantilever Bridge Span Length: 48m + 77m m Width: m Moving Loads: IRC Time Dependent Material: IRC112:2011 Structural plan layout Internal Piers are monolithic and have a diameter of 5m. Bridge has a uniform radius of curvature of 182m. 24

27 02 Load > Moving Load > Traffic Line Lanes Deciding Lane Placement First we need to decide where to place lanes over the deck. Crash Barrier of 1m each on both ends Carriageway Width : = 8.13 m According to IRC 6 Table 2: Live Load Combination For Carriage way Width 5.3< CW <9.6 We have 2 Combinations Lane of Class 70R running with minimum Eccentricity from the kerbs Lanes of Class A running with minimum Eccentricity from the kerbs. So, we need to define 3 lanes. 27
