    Design of End Diaphragms at Abutment


    FOR LATERAL LOADS ONLY

    f'c = 27.5 Mpa


    fy = 410 Mpa

    Total Dead from Superstructure (W) = 3868.8 KN

    Elastic Seismic Response Coefficient (Cs) = 0.50

    Horizontal Force on each diaph. Will be = Cs.W

    = 1934.4 KN

    No. of Diaphragms = 4

    Force experiences each diaph. Will be = 483.6 KN

    Span of Diaphragm = 2525 mm


    Load per meter (w) = 191.52 KN/m

    Moment at midspan (wL²/8) = 152.64 KN-m

    Effective Width (be) = 250 mm


    Effective Depth (de) = 275 mm

    Ru = 8.073
    Rho = 0.0295230 >Rho Max
    Ast = 2030 mm²

    Required 3 Tie Rods of 32 ø

    CHECK FOR SHEAR


    Shear Force (w.L)/2 = 241.8 KN

    Section's Capacity øVc = 0.85*0.17 √ f'c be * de


    = 52.1 KN
    Vs = 223.2 KN Calculate Av/s
    Av/s = 1.98 mm²/mm
