Design Code
|
Shows the selected design code that was chosen in Project Settings/General Options. |
|
Relative Humidity
|
Annual average ambient Relative Humidity in percent for Creep/Shrinkage. |
|
Average Temperature
|
Average temperature used only for Creep/Shrinkage calculation. |
|
Temperature area
|
Air temperature area, we distinguish between 3 selections: Frost, Cold and Tepid according to JTG 4.3.10. |
|
Characteristic period
|
Characteristic ground vibration period. There are 3 types: Tg = 0.35, Tg = 0.35 and Tg = 0.45 according to JTGT B02-01-2008 (for Highway Bridges). |
|
Bridge category
|
Bridge category: A, B, C and D according to JTGT B02-01-2008, clause 3.1.2 |
|
Bridge type
|
To identify type for design code application: Road Bridge, Pedestrian Bridge. Used to determine the characteristic value of pedestrian load according to JTG 4.3.5. |
|
Traffic type
|
Depending on if the vehicles are passing by one-way or two-way the number of the design lanes for applying the traffic load is influenced (JTG 4.3.1, 7, Table 4.3.1-3). |
|
Automobile load grade
|
According to JTG 4.3.1, 1 and 3 automobile loads are divided into grades Highway-I and Highway-II which defines the intensity of the lane loads as given in JTG 4.3.1, 4. Highway-II (reduced) is taken for the clause given in JTG 4.3.1, 3 considering "few heavy vehicles on fourth-grade highway," where the effect of lane load for Highway-II is multiplied by a reduction factor of 0.8 and the effect of vehicular load by a reduction factor of 0.7.
|
|
Terrain roughness type
|
We have 4 terrain types: A, B, C and according to JTG 4.3.7 which will influence the wind velocity correction factor k2. |
|
Ground type
|
Ground types: I, II, III, IV necessary to determine the soil coefficient according to JTGT B02-01-2008, table 4.1.8. |
|
Alignment Type
|
Allows choosing from four types of alignment definition:
- Straight - a straight axis with a length that is represented by distance between first and last span.
- Wizard axis - the alignment may be defined or customized segment by segment within "Alignment" and "Profile" pages.
- Modeler axis - the alignment may be defined using a reference to an axis already defined in Modeler.
- LandXML axis - the alignment may be defined using a reference to an already existing LandXML axis wizard object.
|
|
Alignment Reference
|
- Horizontal offset: Define horizontal distance between roadway axis and superstructure axis.
- Vertical offset: Define vertical distance between roadway axis and superstructure axis.
- Bridge start station: Define longitudinal offset on the alignment for the center line from first pier (abutment) without excess length.
