(iv) When 20MPa is reached the speed limit can be increased to 60km/hour until the concrete reaches aminimum strength of 32MPa at which point the lane closure ends and the speed limit can increase to 80km/h. However, it can be more economical than continuous beam girders bridges because the piers of a bridge can be designed so that the lateral loads, such as earthquake loads, are distributed evenly amongst the piers, reducing the cost of the bridge supports. Exposure Classifications: Designation indicative of the most severe environment to which a concrete member is to be subjected during its design life, in accordance with the exposure classificationsA, B1, B2, C1, C2 andU, as stated in Table4.3 of AS5100.5, and which are used to determine the concrete quality requirements. On However, this version is a very good reference for Structural Civil Engineers, Contractors, and Designers who are working with the shear: Linear interpolation may be employed when partial sand replacement In the transverse direction, the tendons are installed to resist the moments created by cantilever beams of the box girder. Cracks can be quite large (2-4mm) and run through the full depth of the section. The girder of a balanced cantilever bridge mainly forms a box girder. The basic development length, ldb, modified by the Table 610.111 Sieve Size AS (mm)Percentage Passing (by mass)9.51004.7590 1002.3675 1001.1850 900.630 700.310 350.152 100.0750 3 (iv) Consistency of Grading The grading of fine aggregate shall not deviate from the submitted grading by more than(5%.
