COMPUTER PROGRAM FORANALYSIS AND DESIGNOF SIMPLE-SPAN PRECASTPRESTRESSED HIGHWAY ORRAILWAY BRIDGES
Clifford L. FreyermuthDesign Research SectionPortland Cement AssociationSkokie, Illinois
The Portland Cement Associationis developing a comprehensive se-ries of computer programs for analy-sis and design of concrete structuresand pavements. As these programsare developed, they will be madeavailable to the engineering profes-sion. In addition to this program,others are presently available onconcrete airport pavement design,design of reinforced concrete col-umns, and analysis and design offlat plates and continuous frames.
The computer program for analy-sis and design of simple-span, com-posite and non-composite highwayor railway bridges described in thispaper is based on conventionaldesign procedures(') and on appro-priate sections of the current high-way and railway standard specifica-tions d2 '3 ). The program provides ameans of reducing design costs andtime for the subject type of high-way or railway bridge.
DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM
The program is written in FortranIV language for the IBM 1130 Com-puter. Output may be by 1132 print-er or console printer.
The program performs the analy-sis and design of simple-span, pre-
cast, prestressed highway or railwaybridges. The program will accom-modate the composite and non-com-posite sections included in Fig. 1,and will compute the following: sec-tion properties, dead load and liveload shears and moments, stressesfor various loading conditions, ulti-mate design moments and resistingmoments, spacing of shear rein-forcement, horizontal shear stressbetween the composite slab andprecast member, midspan elasticdeflections for various loading con-ditions, and the number and centerof gravity of prestressing strands re-quired.
The program is operated in oneof the following modes:
Mode 1. Analysis and design ofstandard sections with acomposite deck slab(Sections 1 through 5,Fig. 1).
Mode 2. Analysis and design ofnon-composite standardsections (Sections 6, 7and 8, Fig. 1).
Mode 3. Analysis and design ofnon-composite single-and double-celled boxbeams (Sections 9 and10, Fig. 1).
28 PCI Journal
The computer program applies to either highway or railroad bridgeswith various types of prestressed units on simple spans, eitherwith or without a composite deck. Based on conventional designprocedures, the program mechanizes all the routine calculationsand provides a sizeable reduction in design time and cost.
Mode 4. Analysis and design ofall sections in Fig. 1when the number andlocation of prestressingstrands are included inthe input data.
The detailed capabilities of theprogram are as follows:
Section Properties. The programcalculates section properties for non-composite single- or double-celledbox beams (Sections 9 and 10, Fig.1). The other precast sections inFig. 1 are all standards with sectionproperties available. For designswith these sections, it is requiredthat the section properties of theprecast section be included in theinput data. When the standard sec-tions are used in a composite de-sign, the program computes thecomposite section properties.
Loads. The standard AASHO load-ings are used to calculate shearsand moments as described below.The magnitude of highway live load(HS20-44, HS15-44, HS10-44, H20-44, H15-44, or H10-44) is indicatedby an input code number.
For railway bridges, the programuses Cooper's E-Loading. Live loadbending moments are required in-
put data. The magnitude of railwaylive load (E-72, E-60, etc.) is indi-cated by an input code number.
Shear and Moment due to Loads.For all standard AASHO loadingsthe program computes shears atthree locations (reaction, 1/4 span,1/3 span) and moments at up tofour specified locations. Truck load-ing and equivalent lane loading areconsidered, and the program selectsthe type that governs the design.Dead load shears and moments arecalculated at the sections specifiedfor live load. The program computesultimate moments and shears due toloads for highway bridges by multi-plying service load moments andshears by specified load factors.
For railway bridges, design mo-ments due to Cooper's loading atone to four locations are requiredinput data. The values are availablefrom moment tables. The programcomputes shears due to the speci-fied Cooper's loading at the 1/4-and 1/3-span points. Dead loadshears and moments are calculatedat the same sections as for live load.The program computes ultimate mo-ments and shears due to loads forrailway bridges by multiplying theservice load values by specified load

factors.
Prestressing Force. In Modes 1 2and 3, the program calculates thenumber and center of gravity ofprestressing strands necessary to sat-isfy stress limitations, and to pro-vide an ultimate internal resistingmoment equal to, or greater than,the ultimate moment due to loads.The input data specifies the stress
limitations and the size and ulti-mate strength of the individual pre-stressing strand.
In Mode 4, the number and loca-tion of the prestressing strands areincluded in the input data, and theportions of the program used to cal-culate these values in the first threemodes are bypassed.
In any mode, the profile of thecenter of gravity of the prestressing

force may be specified as straightparallel strands with constant eccen-tricity, or as depressed strands witha maximum of two hold-downpoints. The program will also ac-commodate post-tensioned designsand, for this case, the center of grav-ity of the prestressing force is con-sidered to be parabolic.
For pretensioned designs, part ofthe prestress losses occur due tostrand relaxation and elastic mem-ber shortening prior to developingthe stress in the section under the"initial" prestressing force. The pre-liminary loss due to strand relaxa-tion prior to release can be eval-uated from the formula^r):
; 1 1bt — 0.55(jf,
for fj 0.55
where fs = the remaining stress atany time, t, after pre-stressing
f the initial stressf, = 0.1 percent offset stresst = time in hours
For 270k strand stressed initially to0.70 f;, the ratio of f/ f Ri is about0.975 after 48 hours. In other words,the strand relaxation in this periodof time is about 21/2 percent.
The loss due to elastic shorteningand bending of the member can beconsidered to have occurred prior tocalculating stresses due to the initialprestressing force, because the mem-ber shortens as it is stressed. Thisloss can be calculated by the fol-lowing procedure:
1. Calculate concrete stress at re-lease at the level of the pre-stressing steel.
June 1968
f^ = Pti (1.0 — elastic loss) 1 + e—(_A I
where f, — concrete stress at levelof prestressing steel.
Pi = initial prestressingforce.
A = area of precast section.e = eccentricity of strands
(a weighted averagevalue may be used fordesigns with depressedstrands).
1= moment of inertia ofprecast section.
Elastic loss is a value to bedetermined. A value fromthe table in the operating in-structions can be used forthis calculation.
2. Percentage loss due to elastic
Es x f,,shortening = E°
fs^
where Eb = modulus of elasticity ofthe prestressing steel(usually 28 X 106 psi).
E, = modulus of elasticity ofthe concrete in the pre-cast section at the timeof prestressing (E=w1 X 33V7, wherew = weight of the con-crete and f,a = compres-sive strength of the con-crete at release).
fs = initial prestressing steelstress.
Table 1 contains approximate valuesfor the elastic shortening loss forthe 10 sections in Fig. 1.
Some economy can usually begained by considering the twolosses discussed above to have oc-curred prior to the initial stress dueto prestress. In the subject program,
31
this is achieved by an input vari-able (designated in the program asESR) representing the ratio ofwhere f $ is the stress immediatelyafter release and member shorten-ing. In general, a satisfactory valuefor this ratio is obtained by assum-ing a 2½ percent relaxation loss andan elastic shortening loss as indi-cated in Table 1. When the strandmanufacturer supplies relaxationloss data, it should be used in lieuof values in Table 1 or values com-puted from the above relaxation lossformula.
Tab e
For post-tensioned designs, wherethe steel elements are not tensionedsimultaneously, the value of theelastic shortening loss varies de-pending on the number of tendonsand the tensioning procedure. Therelaxation loss for post-tensioned de-signs before calculating stresses dueto the initial prestressing force isessentially zero. For most post-ten-sioned designs, it will be sufficientlyaccurate (and conservative) to entera value of 1.0 for the input variablerepresenting elastic shortening andpreliminary strand relaxation loss.

Use of the program requires thatthe designer enter a value for theminimum eccentricity of the pre-stressing force from the bottom ofthe precast section (designated inthe program as EMIN). Suggestedvalues for this input item are alsoincluded in Table 1.
Stresses. The program calculates topand bottom fiber stresses due toloads (beam weight, non-compositedead load, composite dead load, andlive load) and then calculates thestresses due to three combinationsof loads and prestress force (beamweight plus initial prestress, beamweight plus non-composite deadload plus final prestress, and allloads plus final prestress). Thesestresses are calculated at the loca-tions specified in the input data.
Ultimate Moments. The ultimate re-sisting moment provided is com-puted and compared to the ultimatemoment due to loads which is calcu-Iated as described above. If ultimatemoment governs the required areaof steel, the comparable number ofstrands are used by the program tocalculate stresses, etc.
Shear. The program computes thestirrup spacing required to meetspecifications at the 1/4- and 1/3-span points, which generally are thecritical locations for shear. Themaximum spacing permitted by spe-cifications is also calculated andcompared to the spacing determinedby stress considerations.
For composite highway bridgedesigns, the ultimate horizontalshear stress between slab and pre-cast member is calculated at thesupport.
Reaction. For highway bridge de-
signs, the program calculates thereaction due to live load plus im-pact, and the total reaction due todead load plus live load and impact.
Deflections. Instantaneous midspandeflections are calculated for threeloading conditions (beam weightplus prestressing force, total deadload plus prestressing force, and liveload).

GENERAL COMMENTS ON USE OFTHE PROGRAM
The subject computer program isessentially a mechanization of con-ventional design procedures. Thedesigner selects and inputs the mainstructural parameters and the corn-
June 1968 33
puter makes the routine calcula-tions. In some instances, the pro-gram may not find a mutuallysatisfactory solution to the variousdesign requirements. This usuallymeans that the section is beyond itscapacity for the input design cri-teria. In these cases, an overstressindicator is printed in the output.If the overstress is significant andcannot be accommodated by in-creasing the design concretestrengths, some revision of the de-
sign criteria is necessary to enablethe program to find an acceptablesolution. In the initial design proc-ess, it may be desirable to inputseveral decks, varying some of thecontrolling design criteria. Usuallyone of these designs will be satis-factory. If not, it will generally bepossible to inspect the output andselect final design criteria for a sec-ond computer run.
After a satisfactory design is ob-tained, the designer must check to

Use of the EMIN valuesin Table 1 generally assures that asuitable strand pattern can beachieved. However, the EMIN val-ues in Table 1 were developed spe-cificially for %-in dia. 270k strand.Use of another size or strengthstrand may require some adjustmentof EMIN. If an adjustment is indi-cated, this can be accomplished byre-punching EMIN in card number
