    1) The document provides design calculations for a seismic arrestor in the transverse direction of a bridge. 2) It calculates factored loads and seismic coefficients to determine the design horizontal and vertical forces on the arrestor. 3) It then sizes the arrestor section, calculates reinforcement requirements for shear, flexure and tension, and checks that design forces don't exceed allowable stresses.

    ( Factored Loads ) Load Factor


    Dead Load coming from Super-Str = 1.35 x
    SIDL = 1.75 x
    Live Load coming from Super-Str = 1.50 x

    Design Calculation
    The Seismic Arrestor is designed for the seismic force transmitted to it from Super-Structure.
    Design Horizontal Force Vu =

    Shear Friction Reinforcement Avf =
    Direct Tension Reinforcement At =
    Flexural Tension Reinforcement Af =
    Af + At =
    (2/3 x Avf) + At =

    Cross sectional area of stirrups Ah =


    Required Spacing s =
    So, Provide 8 Legged 16 Bar @ 75

    Check for Shear


    Ultimate Shear Force Vu =
    Shear Stress v =
    As per Table 12B of IRC:21-2000,
    Permissble Stresss for 4.5239 % of steel for M 35 =

    As per Clause 304.7.1.3.3 of IRC:21-2000, the permissible stress in concrete can be increased by a Factor of,

    = 1+ 5x P d= 2.7425
    Ag x fck
    Maximum Allowable Shear Stress on block =

    Hence, Shear Reinforcement is Required
