Client Name (_______________________________________) has awarded Company Name ____________________________________ for Project Name(_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________.
Company Name (______________________) has appointed INFRAENGG Design Agency’s name (__________________) as the “Design Consultant” to carry out the Detailed Design of the project corridor.
Calculate the design wind loads for the bridges to be designed as follow:-
Zone : Mumbai
Height of the Bridge above GL : 9 m
Location : Open Terrain
Obstruction of Height less than : 10 m
The Pier Dimension : 5m x 1.5 m
Type of applied Load : Wind Load
Consider zone as per Map : B
Basic Wind Speed (Vb) : 44 m/s,(Annex-A,(Clause 6.2), Page No-51)
As per IS Code 875-part 3-2015, Table No-01
And clause No- 5.3.1; Page No-11
Height is 9 m & Category , class A,
K2 factor is taken……
As per IS Code 875-part 3-2015, Table No-02
And clause No- 5.3.2.2, Page No-12, K2 factor is taken.
As per IS Code 875-part 3-2015, Table No-02,
For Upwind Slope is less than 30
And clause No- 5.3.2.2, Page No-12; K3 factor is taken.
As per IS Code 875-part 3-2015,
The Location is within 56 km radius of the Ocean, so cyclone factor is taken 1.3
And clause No- 5.3.3.1, Page No-13; K4 factor is taken.

This Pd pressure is acting on the structure as UDL, We calculate the Individual member force as below:-
These are all UDl force, apply in staad model.
Wind Zone Map:-
The general arrangement of superstructure is shown in the Figure 1. Five longitudinal girders are proposed with 3.0m C/C. These Each longitudinal girders are placed over POT-PTFE /Elastomeric bearings. The thickness of deck slab is considered 250 mm it. The total width of superstructure is 14.8. The cross girder/Diaphragm is provided at the support location.
Span 30 m bearing centre to centre: : 30 m
No of Span : 3 Nos
No of Each Span Girder : 5 Nos
Total No of Girder : 15 Nos
