Railway minor Bridge, box bridge, analysis and design of box bridge

Bridges are the structural components that are required for the efficient movement of Trains and locomotives and under earth embankment for crossing of water course like streams across the embankment as road embankment cannot be allowed to obstruct the natural water way. Bridges can be of different shapes such as arch, slab and box. These can be constructed with different material such as masonry (brick, stone etc.) or reinforced cement concrete. Since bridge pass through the earthen embankment, these are subjected to same traffic loads as the road carries and therefore, required to be designed for such loads. The cushion depends on rail profile at the bridge location. The structural design involves consideration of load cases (box empty, full, surcharge loads etc.) and factors like live load, effective width, braking force, dispersal of load through fill, impact factor, co-efficient of earth pressure etc. Relevant IRCs are required to be referred. The structural elements are required to be designed to withstand maximum bending moment and shear force. This paper provides discussions on the provisions in the Codes, considerations and justification of all the above aspects on design.
