Abstract – The Bridge is a structure that provides a passage over a gap or obstacle like a roadway, tunnel, river, etc. Construction of bridges is always challenging for the civil engineer. The different types of bridges play a different role according to their types and material. The pedestrian bridge is one of the popular bridges which is used to eliminate the delay and congestion in traffic on the highway. Similarly, the foot over bridge is used to eliminate the conflicts between vehicles or railway. The foot over the bridge can be made of any combination of material namely concrete, steel or composites. Now-days it is observed that use steel foot over bridges is more because it gives safe, efficient and economical results with speedy construction. The objective of this paper is to present the detailed concept and working principle of various configurations of the foot over bridges and the current trends in implementation of the foot over the bridge for pedestrian or cyclist. In addition to these various problems associated with the foot over the bridge are also discussed. A detailed investigation of literature available in the field of the foot over bridges carried out and the summary and gaps encountered in the study are listed in this paper.

  1. INTRODUCTION

    The bridge is a structure that provides passage over obstacles such as valleys, rough terrain by crossing those obstacles with artificial materials. They first began being used in ancient times when first modern civilizations started rising in Mesopotamia. From that point on, knowledge, engineering, and manufacture of new bridge-building materials spread beyond their borders, enabling slow but steady adoption of bridges all across the world.

    A foot over bridge is a bridge designed for the pedestrian. The bridge is a structure that links two distinct areas at a height above the earth. The easy type of bridge is steppingstones, so this may have been one of the premature types of a footbridge. Foot over bridges are used to change platform at a railway station, skywalk in metro cities. Different types of design foot over bridges include timber foot over bridges, steel foot over bridges, and concrete foot over bridges. The steel truss is generally used for the construction of foot over bridges of different sizes. It is a useful material that provides provable

    solutions. Steel has long been recognized as the economic option for a range of foot over bridges. Steel foot over bridges are used because easy to assemble, less cost, low maintenance, flexibility in design.

  2. CLASSIFICATION OF BRIDGES

    1. By design

      1. Beam bridges: It is the simplest structural forms for bridge spans supported by an abutment or pier at each end[1].No moments are transferred throughout the support, hence their structural type is known as simply supported. The simplest beam bridge could be a log (see log bridge), a wood plank, or a stone slab (see clapper bridge) laid across a stream. Bridges designed for modern infrastructure will usually be constructed of steel or reinforced concrete, or a combination of both. The concrete elements may be reinforced, pre-stressed or post-tensioned. Such modern bridges include girder, plate girder, and box girder bridges, all types of beam bridges.

      2. Truss: A truss is an assembly of members such as beams, connected by nodes, that creates a rigid structure.

    2. by material

    1. Steel Bridges: Steel bridge may use a wide variety structural steel components and systems: girders, frames, trusses, arches, and susp5ension cables.

    2. Concrete Bridges: There are two primary types of concrete bridges: reinforced and pre stressed.

    3. Timber Bridges: Wooden bridges are used when the span is relatively short.

    4. Rahul and kaushik Kumar (10-2014 )

      Has made efforts to design and optimize portable foot bridge which provide a solution that will aid a person carrying a load in crossing stream. The main motto was to minimize the total deformation of the structural member by optimiing the cross sections, materials properties and weight.

  5. METHODOLOGY

    The chapter describes the procedure that was used for designing three bridge alternatives, as well as the criterion that were used to select a fourth option of a pre-fabricated bridge. All calculations and designed can be found in this chapter. The AISC Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) approach was used to design the members, components and connections for each bridge. The LRFD approach was used instead of the AISC Allowable Stress Design (ASD) approach because it is the more widely used method. The different loading combination were used for investigated to determine critical loading conditions for the members and components of each bridge. These loading combinations represent potential critical conditions that may realistically exist.

    For the analysis of the bridge we used ETABS software and for push over analysis we used PEER data. In this analysis we used IS456-2000, IS856.

  7. MOELING OF FOOT OVERBRIDGE

    The strength and the stiffness of infill walls in a RC-Frame building should be considered. Infill walls act as a compressive member within a frame. Non-integrated infill walls act as a diagonal strut when subjected to lateral loads. Therefore an infill wall can be modeled as a diagonal strut in compression only.

B. TIME HISTORY ANALYSIS

Important Points for Time History analysis

Non linear Responce isn't straightforwardly corresponding to Excitation

Function Functions are defined to describe how the load varies as a function of period, time or Frequency

Response Spectrum Function Spectral acceleration Vs Time period Time History Function Loading Magnitude Vs Time Period

Types of time history analysis

  1. Linear Transient Or Non Linear Transient- It starts with ero condition or previous linear/Non linear transient time history case

  2. Periodic Initial condition is adjusted to be equal to those at the end of period of analysis Nonlinear time history is suitable for building with base isolators and dampers

    Hinge Properties in Pushover Analysis

    There are three sorts of pivot properties in E-Tabs. They are

    • Default hinge properties,

    • User-defined hinge properties and

    • Generated hinge properties.

Just default pivot properties and client characterized pivot properties can be appointed to outline components. At the point when these pivot properties are appointed to a casing component, the program naturally makes an alternate produced pivot property for every single pivot. The inherent default pivot properties are normally founded on FEMA-273 as well as ATC-40 measures.

we have Default-M3, Default-P, Default-P-M-M and Default- V2. Typically second pivot properties (Default-M3) are appointed to radiates and interfacing pivot properties (Default- P-M-M) are allotted to segments.

Economical Compression

In some of the studies carried out by INSDAG, it is found that the Steel-Concrete composite option is cost effective (by about

    1. %) in Direct Construction Cost when compared with the conventional RCC construction. The Direct Construction Cost is the cost of the construction incurred during the gestation period of te project i.e. it is the investment. Usually the builder borrows capital from commercial banks at the Prime Lending Rate (PLR) of interest, which is considered in these studies as the Interest during Construction (IDC). Due to fast- track construction of composite structures, considerable saving in valuable construction time (about 25-30% if composite columns and beams only are used and about 40-50% if composite floor system is also included) could be achieved. The early finish of project will facilitate early return on the borrowed capital and as the least form of return, this amount is considered here as the rental charges

      • RCC is cheaper when compared with other construction materials like Steel and prestressed concrete. In future, the maintenance cost of RCC is also very low. So in all aspects, we can say that RCC is an economical construction material.

      • RCC can be prepared and molded easily, at the site of construction. Also, the materials required for preparing RCC can be transported easily.

      • RCC structures are more fire resistant comparatively to other construction materials like wood, Steel, etc.

      • Maintenance cost of a steel structure is very high. Due to action of rust in steel, expensive paints are required to renew time to time. So that resistance against severe conditions increases.

      • Steel has very small resistance against fire as compared to concrete. Almost from 600-700C half of steel strength reduced.

      • Steel cannot be mold in any direction you want. It can only be used in forms in which sections originally exists.

        If steel loses its ductility property, than

      • If steel loses its ductility property, than chances of brittle fractures increase.

      • If there are very large variations in tensile strength than this lead steel to more tension. Due to which steel tensile properties graph falls down.

        1. CONCLUSIONS

          This research has focused on a design approach for steel and concrete bridges. Two design stages have been considered, and the research fields related to that phases have been reviewed. In this research fields are Design And Behavior (75%), Optimization (10%), Construction Process (5%), Maintenance and Repair (5%), Life Cycle Assessment (5%), and Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (5%). To improve the literature review, a statistical analysis has been carried out to look for relations between fields of study, design stages, and bridge cross section types and push over analysis.

      • Most effective utilization of materials viz. concrete in compression and steel in tension.

      • High ductility of steel leads to better seismic resistance of the composite section. Steel component can be deformed in a ductile manner without

        premature failure and can withstand numerous loading cycles before fracture.

      • Steel component has the ability to absorb the energy released due to seismic forces through its unique property called ductility.

      • Ability to cover large column free area. This leads to more usable space. Area occupied by the composite column is less than the area occupied by the RCC column.

      • Quality of steel is assured since it is produced under controlled environment in the factory under strict Quality Assurance Plan (QAP). More use of steel in composite construction compared to that in RCC structure ensures better quality control. Cost effective, based on life cycle cost analysis since steel structures can be maintained easily and less frequent repairs are required for steel structure.

Steel is more durable, highly recyclable and hence environment friendly. Keeping span/loading unaltered, smaller structural sections are required compared to non-composite construction. Therefore, reduction in overall weight of the composite structure compared to the RCC construction results lesser foundation costs. Cost of handling and transportation is less because major part of structure is fabricated in workshop near the site. The steel component and hence the steel- concrete composite construction is more resistant against accidental loads compared to RCC construction.

Composite sections have higher stiffness compared to only steel construction and hence experience lesser deflection than the non-composite steel sections.
