4. DEVELOP GENERAL SECTION

4.1 Criteria for deflection
Deflection is limited to Lg/1000 for vehical load
4.2 Structural Depth :
Base on Table 4.6.2.2.1-1 AASHTO, for precast box beam with transverse post-Tensioning, the main grider of this
exercise is categorised in the typical cross section "G".
Minimum Depths for constant depth superstructures
Prestressed Concrete Adjacent Box Beam for simple spans
Dmin = 0,03L =
810
mm

Table 2.5.2.6.3-1 AASHTO

Using selected Typical Standard Precast Box Beam of AASHTO Bridge Sections
We choose AASHTO Box Beam Type BII-48
D = 838,2 mm > Dmin =810 mm

: St. Venant's torsional inertia

Because of the section a special one, so we couldn't calculate St. Venants torsional
inertia by manual. So we use the program Structural Bridge Design to calculate it.
And we get the result:
J = 7.38002E10 mm4

So,

1.55E-01

6.1.2. Distribution Factor for Two or More Lane Loaded

.

AASHTO Table 4.6.2.2.2b

So,
And

max

2.11E-01

0.210891449

So, the distribution factor for interior beam is
