FOUNDATIONS
Foundation types for the New Brahmaputra bridge:
1. A-1, P-1 – P-6 and P-18 – P-21, A2 - Pile foundations2. P-7 – P -17 - Well foundation
WELL FOUNDATIONS:
DOUBLE D WELL FOUNDATION:
In this type of well foundation, the dredge hole is in the form of a D-shape. It consists of 2 D-shaped dredge holes, therefore it is called double –D well foundations.
CHARACTERISTICS:
1. It is mostly used for the piers and abutments of bridges which are too long to beaccommodated on circular well.
2. It provides lateral stability.3. It has simple shape and easy to sink but requires greater effort than circular well.4. Staining is relatively thick .5. It is more prone to tilt and shift due to unsymmetrical shape and possible unequal
dredging.
Fig: Diagram showing parts of well foundation
Gamm

ship
PARTS OF THE WELL:
1. CUTTING EDGE: It is the lower most tapering edge of the well made of steel whichfacilitates cutting through soil for the sinking of the well.
2. WELL CURB: The cutting edge has to be strengthened suitably to take up the heavyloading and this portion is called the well curb. It is usually made of heavily reinforcedrich concrete.
Fig: Cutting edge
3. STAINING: The well staining is the main body of the well which transfers load to freesub-soil. It also acts as a cofferdam during sinking and provides the weight forsinking.
4. BOTTOM PLUG: The bottom of the well is mass concreted to prevent further sinkingof the well in future and is known as the bottom plug. It is done by means of pipesinserted through the D’s of the well. After mass concreting the plug is tested forcracks.
5. REINFORCEMENT: It provides required strength to the structure during sinking andservice.
6. WELL CAP: The well cap is a R.C.C slab laid at the top of the well staining and isusually cast monolithically with the staining. It transmits the load of the superstructureto the staining.
CAISSONS:
Caisson is a box-like structure usually round or rectangular which is sunk from the surface ofeither land or water to some desired depth. It is pre-cast at the bank with the bottom which isgenerally provided with opening which are plugged and toed to the required positions bytugs and then plugs are removed to permit the caisson to reach the bottom of the river bed.
Gamm

tern
ship
After the caisson rests in its final position, concrete blocks are normally dumped in to thehollow portion to increase its lateral stability.
COMPONENTS OF CAISSONS:
1. Cutting edge2. A-frame3. B-frame4. Extension
CONSTRUCTION OF ISLANDS:
An island, if necessary, is constructed enclosing the construction site to facilitate theconstruction of the well foundation in dry condition, if depth of water is not more than 4.5 to6.0 m. In case, where the velocity of water in the river is sufficiently high making it difficult toconstruct either an island or cofferdam to construct a well, caisson type construction hasbeen used.
SITE: P-7, P-8, P-9 ,P-16 and P-17 are planned to be constructed using islands.

TILT:
Tilt is the angle by which the central axis ( both X and Y ) of the well gets rotated. Maximumtilt allowed is 1:80.
CALCULATION OF TILT-
1) R.L of the points are taken on all 4 sides using total station.2) For e.g. => G/s = 20.170
A/s = 20.120D/s = 20.100U/s = 20.150
Gamm
on In
tern
ship
TILT IS CALCULATED USING THE FOLLOWING FORMULA:
TILT = difference in RL / length
Thus, tilt along X-X = 1 : 200 Amingaon side
tilt along Y-Y = 1 : 320 downstream side
SHIFT DUE TO TILT = diff in RL * height of well / length
Thus ,shift => X-X = 100 mm Amingaon side
Y-Y = 62.5 mm downstream side
SITE VISIT:
The dredging process was going on in P-12 by means of a crane and a grab.

HIGHWAY
In the planning for New Brahmaputra Bridge Project, highway is provided measuring 700m inAmingaon side and 1200m along the Guwahati side with retaining walls measuring 3.8m -5m in height. The highway is designed to be of flexible pavement with 3 lanes for smoothmovement of the traffic. Moreover it is designed to manage a volume of traffic 3 times thanthat of today’s.
While designing and constructing the highway IRC recommended CBR values, frictionalcoefficient, etc. are considered. The flexible pavement highway involves the distancebetween the viaduct of the bridge and the point where it joins the existing highway.

SUPERSTRUCTURE
A superstructure is an upward extension of an existing structure above a baseline. The bridge deck is to be constructed by the cast in situ Cantilever Segmental
Construction method. Formwork for the in situ cast parts shall be made by steel.
PCC: The mixture of cement, sand and aggregate is called Plain Cement Concrete (PCC).
PRE-SRTESSED CONCRETE:
Pre-stressed Concrete is a method for overcoming concrete’s natural weakness in tension. Itcan use to produce longer span in bridges than is practical with ordinary reinforced concrete.
Pre-stressing tendons (high tensile steel cable or rods) are used to provide a clamping loadwhich produces a compressive stress that balances the tensile stress that the concretecompression member would otherwise experience due to bending load.
PIER:
A pier is a raised structure, including bridge and building supports and walkways, over water,typically supported by widely spread piles or pillars. Piers can range in size and complexityfrom a simple light-weight wooden structure to major structures extended over a mile out tosea.
PIER CAP:
Pier Caps are designed to be placed on top of pillars or columns. They protect brick or stonework from weather and corrosion and add beauty to the work. They usually needed to beslightly larger than the dimensions of the pillar itself so that they overhang.
BOX GIRDER:
A box girder or Tubular girder is a girder that forms an enclosed tube with multiple walls,rather than I or H-beam. The advantage of a box girder is that it better resists torsion. Havingmultiple vertical webs, it can also carry more load than an I beam of equal height.
