CALCULATION OF SEISMIC COEFFICIENT


For Pier
Horizontal Seismic Forces:
Feq = Ah x (Dead Load + Appropriate Live Load)
Ah = Horizontal Seismic Coefficient

I = 1.2 V 0.36
Z = Zone Factor as given in table 5 (Interim Specifications)

Zone No = II
Z = 0.1
R = Response reduction factor

R = 3 Table 8 note 4
T = 2 D
1000 F

F = Horizontal force in kN required to be applied at the centre of mass of the superstructure for one mm
horizontal deflection at the top of the pier/abutment along the direction of horizontal force

Calculation of Time period

Calculation of stiffness for Abutment


Dimension of Pier in long. Direction = 2.00 m
Dimension of Pier in transverse Direction(outer to outer) = 2.00 m

Moment of inertia in transverse direction


M.I of the section about its C.G = 0.785 m4
M.I of overall section about its C.G = 0.785 m4

Moment of inertia in longitudinal direction


M.I of the section about its C.G = 0.7854 m4
Grade of concrete = 35 grade
Young's modulus of elasticity of concrete E = 29580 N/mm2
Height of Abut above the foundation = 10.169 m
Stiffness of Abut in transverse direction (3EI T / L3) = 66280 KN/m
Stiffness of Abut in longitudinal direction (3EI L / L3) = 66280 KN/m

Seismic Coefficient in Longitudinal Direction


Dead Load from Superstructure (DL + SIDL) = 4787 KN
Total load D = 4787 KN
Time period T = 0.537 sec
Sa/g = 1.861
Ah = 0.0372

Seismic Coefficient in Transverse Direction


Dead Load from Superstructure ( DL+SIDL ) = 4787 kN
Pier Cap Load = 613 kN
20% of Live load from superstructure = 183 kN
Total Load D = 5583 kN
Time Period T = 0.580 sec
Sa/g = 1.723
Ah = 0.0345
