    The document discusses the design of a pier cap as a corbel using the methodology from the book 'Concrete bridge practice'. It involves calculating shear, direct tension, flexural, primary tensile and horizontal/vertical stirrup reinforcement.

    The design methodology used is as per chapter 23 of the book 'Concrete bridge practice' by V. K. Raina for the design of pier caps as corbels.

    The main steps involved are: 1) Checking shear span ratio 2) Checking shear capacity 3) Calculating shear friction reinforcement 4) Calculating direct tension reinforcement 5) Calculating flexural reinforcement 6) Calculating primary tensile reinforcement 7) Calculating horizontal stirrups 8) Calculating vertical shear reinforcement.

    DESIGN OF PIER CAP - AS CORBEL

    This design has been done as per methodology suggested in 'Concrete bridge practice' by V. K. Raina chapter - 23

    Data
    Shear span a = 0.25 m
    Depth at tip of corbel s = 0.15 m
    Depth at root of corbel h = 0.3 m
    Width of corbel b = 1.3 m
    Corbel projection I = 0.5 m
    28-day strength of conc. fc = 300 kg/cm2
    Yield stress of steel fsy = 5000 kg/cm2
    Coff.of friction m = 1.4 for conc.placed monolithic across interface
    1.0 for conc.placed against hardened conc.but with roughened surface.
    0.7 for conc.anchored to structural steel
    0.6 for conc.placed against hardened conc.but without roughened surface.
    Max loads on each bearings
    1 Dead load of superstructure = 3.00 T
    2 S.I.D.L. = 0.00 T
    3 Live load with impact = 0.00 T
    Clear cover to the reinforcement = 25 mm
    Dia of bar = 16 mm

    Vu

    a
    H

    h d'

    Effective depth of pier cap d' = 0.3 - 0.025 - 0.016 = 0.27 m


    2

    Self weight of corbel = 0.15 + 0.3 x 0.5 x 1.3 x 2.4


    2
    = 0.35 T
    step 1

    Shear span a = 0.25 = 0.9363 < 1 Hence ok


    Effective depth d' 0.27

    s = 0.15 = 0.5618 > 0.5 Hence ok


    d' 0.27

    step 2 Vu < 0.15 x fc'


    bd

    Ultimate factors for DL = 1.5


    SDL = 2.00
    LL = 2.50 as per IRC:18

    Vu = Ultimate shear force value = 3.00 x 1.5 + 0.00 x 2.0 + 0.0 x 2.5 = 4.5 T

    b = Width of the cantilever/corbel = 130 cm


    d = 0.8d' = 0.8 x 26.7 = 21.4 cm
    fc' = 28th days standard cylindrical = 0.8 x 300 = 240 kg/cm2
    strength of the concrete

    Vu = 4.5 x 1000 = 1.621 < 36 kg/cm2


    bd 130 x 21.4 Hence ok

    step 3 Calculation of shear friction reinforcement :


    Avf = Vu
    0.85 x fsy x m

    Avf = 4500.00 = 0.76 cm2/m


    0.85 x 5000 x 1.4

    step 4 Calculation of direct tension reinforcement :


    At = Hu
    0.85 x fsy

    fsy = 5000 kg/cm2


    Hu = 0.2 x 4.5 = 0.90 T/m

    At = 900.00 = 0.21 cm2/m


    0.85 x 5000

    step 5 Calculation of Flexural Tensile reinforcement :


    Af = Vu x a + Hu x h - d'
    0.85 x fsy x d
    = 4500 x 25 + 900 x 30 - 26.7
    0.85 x 5000 x 21

    = 1.27 cm2/m

    step 6 Calculation of Primary Tensile reinforcement :

    As ( greater among these ) < Af + At = 1.48 cm2/m


    < ( 0.04*fc'/fsy )*bd' = 4.10 cm2/m
    < 2/3*Avf + At = 0.72 cm2/m

    As = 4.101 cm2/m

    Provided Tor 12 @ 150 C/C

    As provided = 1.13 x 1000 = 7.54 cm2/m


    150

    step 7 Calculation of horizontal stirrups:

    Ah ( greater among these ) < 0.5 x Af = 0.64 cm2/m


    < 0.333 x Avf = 0.25 cm2/m

    Ah = 0.64 cm2/m
    This reinforcement to be provided below As & within a depth of 2/3 x d' below As = 17.80 cm

    Provide TOR 8 @ 4 legged stirrups 2 Nos

    Ah provided = 2.01 x 2= 4.02 cm2/m > Ah req


    Hence ok

    step 8 Calculation of Vertical shear reinforcement :

    Av = 0.5 x Vu - Vc p
    fsy x d
    Vu =Ultimate shear force capacity = 4.5 T/m
    d = 0.8 x d' = 21.4 cm
    Vc =shear force capacity of unreinforced concrete = 48 T

    Design shear capacity ( Vide cl - 304.7.3.1 of I.R.C:-21-1987 )


    V = k1 x k2 x tco
    c

    k1 = 1.14 - 0.7 d > 0.5


    D in m = 0.267
    Hence k1 = 0.95 Therefore K1 = 0.95
    k2 = 0.50 + 0.3 p > 1
    Hence k2 = 1.00
    tco = 50 T/m2 for M 40 Grade concrete.
    .
    . .Vc = 48 T

    Av = 0.5 x 4.5 - 48
    5000 x 21.4
    = -0.20 cm2/m ( per metre in long dir and in traffic dir )
    Provide 4 leg Tor 10 stirrups 4 Nos

    Ah provided = 3.14 x 4= 12.57 cm2/m
