International Journal of Engineering Trends and Technology (IJETT) – Volume 22 Number 2- April 2015 DESIGN OF CABLE STAYED PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE T.Nelson ponnu durai1 Dr. P.Asha2 and R.Vinoth kumar3 1 Final Year P.G Structural , St. Peter’s University 2 HOD CIVIL Department St. Peter’s University 3 Assistant Professor,Civil, St. Peter’s University, Abstract: This paper intends to describe the conceptual 1.2 Scope of Work design of a CABLE STAYED PEDESTRIAN CROSS OVER BRIDGE, near Koyembedu bus terminus. The development of detailed design and critical issues associated with bridge deck, cables and tower are briefly discussed. The bridge is constructed for easy movement of people crossing the expressway and to avoid fatal accidents. Live load acting on the bridge is transferred to the bridge deck, which in turn both the dead load of the superstructure (self-weight of the bridge deck) and live load of the bridge is balanced by tension cables which is anchored to the tower. The tower of the bridge carries the total working load. Additional columns are provided at the end supports. The design is aimed to meet the requirements. The scope of the project included the Preliminary Design of Pedestrian Footbridge. Specific requirements of geometric and structural design were obtained from the general data collected in the form of a design and analysis basis note. The construction of the proposed bridge is at an early stage of development in other developed countries and not yet in India and needs to be taken through simple procedures, The development of the scheme shall be undertaken by any kind of Bridge and iron companies, NHAI , IRC or any other private firms which so ever is economic to both the public and private sectors The project shall be the subject of a competitive tendering process, which shall involve national road building contractors. 1. Introduction A cable-stayed bridge has one or more towers from which cables support the bridge deck. A cable-stayed bridge is not a suspension bridge type. Hence No end anchorage is necessary. The cable stayed pedestrian bridge is taken into idea for developing the transportation, and its infrastructure to meet the needs and demand of the growing population whilst retaining its distinctive and valued market town character. This project has been proposed especially for pedestrian safety considerations, where the cable stayed cross over structure will serves as a best for both pedestrians and the fastest moving traffic. The structure provides a strategic and easy access to the bus terminus and in conjunction with the six lanes state highway would enable the traffic to flow at high speed so that the flow should not be disturbed in turn saving the destination, fuel and prevents hazards at a time. The CMBT provides the potential to attract a range of new businesses including government departments/relocations by virtue of its domestic transport links, and the quality of its riverfront of aesthetic environment. The bridge caters to the requirement of motorists, pedestrians and cyclists. This bridge is henceforth referred as the ‘cable stayed pedestrian cross over bridge’ in this design project. 1.1 Objectives 1.

Study Area Fig.2.1 study area http://www.ijettjournal.org Page 55 International Journal of Engineering Trends and Technology (IJETT) – Volume 22 Number 2- April 2015 2.1 Reasons for Selecting the Location: It became tedious for the pedestrians to cross the road in peak hours. Also, the vehicles are stopped for pedestrian crossing which disturbs the traffic flow. To avoid fatal accidents. 2.2 Plan and Elevation: Reinforced Concrete Slab. The slap is precasted in 10 parts in a dimension of 3m x 3.5m. dLx = 3m (shorter span) Ly = 3.5m (longer span) Ly/Lx< 2, therefore the slab is 2-way slab.

Load acting on the staircase will be equal to that of the load acting on the bridge deck. Therefore, the design elements are the same for both. The girder and the column of the staircase is designed as ISMB600, which is sufficient.

Therefore a square footing of dimension 1m x 1m is designed with a minimum depth of foundation as, The soil is of dry and compacted sand till the depth of 7m. The unit weight and angle of repose of the soil is found by the following table.

The cable is attached to the tower at a interval of 250 mm and therefore the cable design is semi harp type.
