(2010) as prescribed by TxDOT Bridge Design Manual - LRFD (May 2009). Design Parameters "AASHTO LRFD" refers to the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specification, 5th Ed.

For maximum reaction at interior bents, "Design Truck" will always govern over "Design Tandem". For the maximum reaction when the long span is less than twice as long as the short span, place the middle (32 kip) axle over the support, the front (8 kip) axle on the short span and the rear (32 kip) axle on the long span.

(AASHTO LRFD ) Dynamic load allowance, IM, does not apply to "Design Lane." (AASHTO LRFD ) The Live Load is applied to the slab by two 16 kip wheel loads increased by the dynamic load allowance with the remainder of the live load distributed over a 10 ft (AASHTO LRFD ) design lane width. (TxSP) The Live Load applied to the slab is distributed to the beams assuming the slab is hinged at each beam except the outside beam. (BDM-LRFD, Ch. 4, Sect. 4, Structural Analysis) Cap 18 Input Multiple Presence Factors, m (AASHTO LRFD Table ) Input "Multiple Presence Factors" into Cap18 as "Load Reduction Factors".

(TxSP) TxDOT allows the Overlay Factor to be reduced to 1.25 (TxSP), since overlay is typically used in design only to increase the safety factor, but in this example we will use DW = LRFD Rectangular Bent Cap Design Example 5 June 2010

(BDM-LRFD, Chapter 4, Section 5, Design Criteria) The Cap 18 input file is located in the appendixes. For bents with different girder spacings forward and back, TXDOT standard design procedure requires two CAP18 problems as follows: Problem 1, Table 3 describes stringers for SPAN 1 only. Problem 2, same as problem 1 except hold envelopes from problem 1 and on Table 3 describe stringers for SPAN 2 only. Use problem 2 results.

Shear Design (AASHTO LRFD 5.8) Shear Capacity Design V u (Ultimate Shear) must be less than V r (Shear Resistance) V u V r (AASHTO LRFD Eq ) V r = ϕ v V n (AASHTO LRFD Eq ) ϕ v 0.9 (AASHTO LRFD ) V n is the lesser of V n1 and V n2 Where, V n1 = 0.25 f c b v d v + V p (AASHTO LRFD Eq ) V n2 = V c + V s + V p (AASHTO LRFD Eq ) V c is the Shear Resistance of the Concrete V c = β f c b v d v (AASHTO LRFD Eq ) V s is the Shear Resistance of the Transverse Steel V s = A v f y d v cot( θ) s (AASHTO LRFD Eq. C ) V p is the Vertical Component of the Prestress Force V p 0kip There is no prestressing steel in this cap.

V n1 is dependent on the section properties and the flexural reinforcement. V n2 is dependent on the section properties, the flexural reinforcement, and the shear reinforcement. V n1 is independent of the shear steel, therefore if V u is greater than V n1 the cap fails in shear regardless of the transverse steel. V n1 0.25f c b v d v V p V n kip (AASHTO LRFD Eq ) V r1 must be greater than V u V u kip V r1 ϕ v V n1 (AASHTO LRFD Eq ) V r kip > V u Vr1check "OK!" If V r1 is greater than V u1, then use a LARGER cap depth in order to satisfy shear requirements. The method for calculating and used in this design example are from AASHTO LRFD Appendix B5. The method from AASHTO LRFD may be used instead. The method from is based on the method from Appendix B5; however, it is less accurate and more conservative (often excessively conservative). The method from Apendix B5 is preferred because it is more accurate, but it requires iterating to a solution. The method from can be used when doing calculations by hand.

Strain halfway between the compressive and tensile resultants (AASHTO LRFD Eq. B5.2-1) If x < 0, then use equation B5.2-3 and re-solve for x. Using Table B5.2-1 with θ 36.4 deg and β 2.23 v u 0.07 and ε f x c The table values for and can be applied over a range, thus, no interpolation is required. (*Note: Shear spreadsheet will automatically interpolate and values so results will slightly vary from hand calculations.) and have not changed from the assumed values, therefore no more iterations are required. V c = β f c b v d v V c kip (AASHTO LRFD Eq ) Assuming #5 stirrups at s 8.5in spacing, TxDOT limits transverse reinforcement spacing to a maximum A of 12" and a minimum of 4". v 2( 0.31) in 2 A v 0.62in 2 (BDM-LRFD, Ch. 4, Sect. 4, Detailing) Trial and error is used to determine the stirrup spacing required for the section. V s A v f y d v cot( θ) V s s kip The transverse reinforcement, "A v ", is a closed stirrup. The failure surface intersects two legs of the stirrup, therefore the area of the shear steel is two times the stirrup bar's area (0.31in 2 ). See the sketch of the failure plane to the left. (AASHTO LRFD Eq. C ) V p 0kip "V p " is zero as there is no prestressing. LRFD Rectangular Bent Cap Design Example 11 June 2010

Shear capacity and checks should be repeated at ALL points of critical shear. The Concrete Section Shear Capacity spreadsheet can be used in lieu of hand calculations. Note: in the overhangs, the stirrups need to be 5in because the shear is higher. Similarly the stirrups need to be 5in near the center column. (See the Shear Spreadsheet in the appendicies). When the spacing needed is less than 4in, use double stirrups. (BDM-LRFD, Ch. 4, Sect. 4, Detailing) When using double stirrups, A v is four times the stirrup bar's area.
