Braking Page SNiP

The braking load is defined as 50% of uniformly distributed part of AK Load (no axle load is taken into account), but it should not be smaller than 7.8×K kN and not greater than 24.5×K kN.

The load is considered to be applied uniformly distributed in longitudinal direction in each designed vehicle lane for both cases of AK load, in this manner in first lane has the full braking force and in all other lanes the force is multiplied with 0.6 factor.

SettingDescription
Height of application Distance between the cross-section slab surface and the level of the finished roadway.
Total line load Intensity of the line load deriving from dividing the total braking force over the length of the bridge as defined in Superstructure > Spans
