Implementation of 4-lane Cable Stayed ROB at Barddhaman – future fast track model for
New ROB over busy yard.
ByRajesh Prasad
Chief Project Manager (M), RVNL, Kolkata
Engineers constructed the first cable-stayed bridges in Europe following the close of World War II, but the basic design dates back to the 16th century.
Today, cable-stayed bridges are a popular choice as they offer all the advantages of a suspension bridge but at a lesser cost for spans of 500 to 2,800 feet (152 to 853 meters).
They require less steel cable, are faster to build and incorporate more precast concrete sections.
CABLE STAYED BRIDGE – few facts
Tension
Compression
CABLE STAYED BRIDGE
Basic Principal :- Pylon
Stay Cables
The advantage of cable-stayed bridges lies in the fact that it can be built with any number of towers but for suspension bridges it is normally limited to two towers.
With span length less than 1,000m, suspension bridges require more cables than cable-stayed bridges.
Moreover, cable-stayed bridges possess higher stiffness and display smaller deflections when compared with suspension bridges.
The construction time is longer for suspension bridges.

BARDDHAMAN CABLE STAYED BRIDGE DETAILS
• Engineering Challenge confronted…• Superstructure carries 7.5m carriageway and 1.5 m wide
footpath on each side.
• DECK Geometry:Total Length of the Bridge : 188.431 mCP1 to P1 (Steel composite deck) : 124.163 mP1 to CP2 (RCC Deck) : 64.265 mNumber of Lanes in each Direction : 2Cross Slope : 2 %
GEOMETRY OF THE CABLE STAY BRIDGEBarddhaman yard is one of the busiest yard of Eastern Railway and Rajdhani route over Barddhaman station spanning across 8 platforms and 10 tracks.
• LARSA 4D model for design• Wind tunnel test• Use of precast RCC slabs to avoid scaffolding on
deck• Composite structures for easier construction• Monolithic Back Span• Durable painting by epoxy based paint of Akzonobel• Erection scheme • LUSAS model for Construction Stage Analysis • Geometry Control during execution.
FEATURES
In Larsa 4D these construction stages are simulated so as to get more realistic analysis. As cable elements have been used which are nonlinear in nature, nonlinear analysis is carried out at each stage. The initial structure has been kept with a pre-camber such that after complete construction, the deflection brings the structure to desired finish level.
Fundamental period of vibration of the structure is calculated by creating a 3D model of the structure and carrying out its modal analysis in STAAD Pro V8i/ Midas Civil/ Larsa4D.

Based on the preliminary Aerodynamic Studies by CRRI, the bridge has been found not susceptible to classical flutter and galloping
Buffeting, Vortex Induced Oscillations- Limited Amplitude Oscillation The Amplitude of vortex induced oscillation is vey low and not likely
to cause discomfort to users Using Frequency Domain Approach, peak buffeting response was
estimated as 0.160m for assumed aerodynamic force coefficients terrain roughness (plain terrain, surface roughness parameter =0.005m)

•Model Design
•Model Fabrication and mounting
•Instrumentation ( pasting of strain guages in three component balance)
•Calibration of Strain guage balance
•Wind tunnel test at different angle of attack, wind speed
Steps involved in Wind Tunnel Testing
•The basic wind speed for design is to be taken as 47m/s at the location of bridge as per the wind given in IS:875 – Part 3 and IRC:6•The terrain roughness for the bridge design has been taken as TC-I or plain terrain as per IRC:6 and wind forces in the transverse longitudinal and vertical directions have been computed as per IRC:6.•The peak buffeting response of bridge deck at the location of maximum modal ordinate of the main span at a distance of 76m from the pylon has been estimated as 0.2225m using the frequency domain analysis, when the houly mean wind speed at deck level is 39.6 m/s.•The max. amplitude of bridge deck due to vortex excitation in the first bending mode is estimated as 5 mm at a wind speed of 5.93 m/s which is very low compared to the deflection due to dead load and live load and is not likely to cause discomfort to users•The bridge deck is not likely to be susceptible to galloping oscillation in vertical mode and shall flutter in first torsional mode.•The bridge deck is not susceptible to classical flutter.•It is suggested that monitoring of wind speed and wind direction at 10m level may be carried out at bridge site.
CONCLUSION
Construction Stage Analysis using LUSAS model• Analysis has been done using finite element analysis software LUSAS. • Deck is modeled as grillage of longitudinal and transverse members. • Deck is integral at P1 and CP2. At CP1 pin support with longitudinal
free movement is used representing the Guided PTFE bearings. • At P1 and CP2, elastic spring supports representing the pile stiffness
are used.
• Load Cases : 67
Analysis Model
Isometric View of the model Rendered View of the model
Geometry Control to ensure safety
• Height of the pylon is dictated by the stability analysis and economics of the bridge. A tall pylon will minimize the compression introduced into the steel deck system, but may increase the length of cable used while a short pylon will introduce undesirable compressive forces into the steel deck structure.
• The cross section is sized for not only strength and deflection requirements, but also to accommodate a stressing and inspection route.
• Height of the pylon above deck has been fixed as 54.768m. Three steel pylon towers (2.5MX2.0M box) connected by with ties and founded on RCC wall of M50 grade (concrete Part of Pylon).
STRUCTURAL DESIGN
Installation of strands & Stressing Freyssinet’s Parallel Strand System (PSS) stay cables - which
has a design life of 100 years and is the most advanced and durable stay cable system in the world today. There are 3 planes of stay cables with 18 cables each. Vibration control dampers are being installed in long stay cables (> 80m) as per CIP recommendations. Sensors for permanent monitoring of deflections and stresses during service condition, are also being installed in 6 stays subjected to heavy loads. An inspection and maintenance manual for the stay cables during service has been prepared.
Isotension® Method
• In order to avoid the problem of shuttering / de-shuttering for deck slab over electrified tracks and to ensure proper finish of concrete, the deck slab has been designed consisting of a precast slab and a cast-in-situ portion. The precast slab is placed over the cross girders by the Deck Erection Crane (DEC) and the cast-in-situ concrete is poured after completion of reinforcement and shear connector works.

PAINT & PAINTING SCHEME
Maintenance-free painting scheme with a design life of 40+ years.
The painting scheme and supervision by M/s Akzo Nobel and has a warranty period of 25 years for the painted structure.
The painting scheme :• Blasting of the Steel Structure to SA 2.5 with suitable abrasive material.
(Copper slag)• Primer Coat consisting of 2 coats of epoxy zinc dust primer (Interzinc 52)
are applied by brush/airless spray to 75 micron DFT• Intermediate Coat consisting of epoxy polyurethane paint (Intergard 475
HS MIO) applied by brush/airless spray to 75 micron DFT• Finishing with 2 coats of Polysiloxane (Interfine 878) applied by
brush/airless spray to 120 micron DFT
PAINTING SCHEME
2 separate blasting & painting chambers have been constructed where the blasting & painting operations are carried out in a controlled environment.
After the painting is completed, proper slinging and handling arrangement is also ensured so that there is no damage to the members during handling
In case of any damage to the paints during handling, a touch-up/repair scheme has also been proposed by M/s Akzonobel, which is also being followed.
• For monitoring of the structural health of the bridge during its service life, 6 nos. sensors have been installed on the stay cables subjected to maximum loads. The ROBO Control System of M/s Mageba is being used for the purpose.
• The structural monitoring system issues alarm notification based on measurements by the on-structure instrumentation when pre-defined threshold values of structural loads are passed. Alarm criteria will be configured based on the structural design of the bridge
MONITORING SYSTEM
• In order to reduce the effect of fatigue on the stay cables due to oscillations induced by wind or other external phenomena, stay cables of more than 80m length have been provided with Internal Radial Dampers (IRD). 15 such dampers have been installed on the stays
• IRD is composed of three hydraulic pistons placed at 120° angle around the cable. The inner end of the pistons is fixed with a pin joint on a collar compacting the strand bundle. Their outer end is fixed with pin joints to a metallic tube called the guide tube. The damper is fixed rigidly to the guide tube.
• The available stroke for the transverse displacements is +/- 40mm.
INTERNAL RADIAL DAMPERS
• Due to the presence of electrified lines and block working, safety is a critical aspect of the work.
• The safety measures adopted at site go above & beyond merely using Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) at site.
• In preparation of the SHE plan, each activity of the work has been studied minutely and risks have been identified & steps have been taken to address associated risks.
• Some of the aspects of the Safety Plan include:• Provision of Proper Illumination & Safe Access to all working locations• Use of properly designed slings, cranes and handling tools for all erection activities and
regular maintenance and 3rd party checking of the same• Provision of Lifelines & Fall Arrestors for all workers working at height• Emergency Evacuation Plan & Temperature control for working in congested
surroundings (i.e. inside pylon)• Adopting safe work practices & imbibing culture of safety & awareness among workers
