2. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I would like to thank JaipurDevelopmentAuthority(JDA) for giving methis
invaluable opportunityto learn so much practical knowledge which would have
impossible to learn through onlylooking at images from textbooks. I have gained
invaluable insights into how construction of any superstructureis handled and how
any difficultywhich comes in between is tackled. Apartfrom technical knowledge, I
have gain insights into construction management, efficientman-power
managementand lots of other thing.
I am deeply indebted to our training in-chargeat site Mr. DevendraGupta whose
help, stimulating suggestions and encouragementhelped me in all the time at the
training site and also for writing this training report. Also I am thankfulto Mr.
ManishJangid and Mr. BharatSingh for helping meunderstand the process of
construction.
My colleagues from the Civil Engineering Department supported me in my project
work. I want to thank them for all their help, support, interestand valuable hints
Especially, I would like to give my special thanks to my parents whose patient love
enabled me to complete this work. And at last butnot the least I would like to
thank God for the successful completion of my project.

8. FOUNDATION DESIGN
PILE FOUNDATION: Diameter= 1.2m and Depth =25m.
Piledfoundations :
General descriptionsof pile typesThere isalarge varietyof typesof pile usedforfoundationwork.The
choice depends onthe environmentalandgroundconditions,the presenceorabsence of groundwater,
the functionof the pile,i.e.whethercompression,upliftorlateral loadsare tobe carried,the desired
speedof constructionandconsiderationof relative cost.The abilityof the pile toresistaggressive
substancesororganismsinthe ground or insurroundingwatermustalsobe considered.InBS8004,
pilesare groupedintothree categories:
(1) Large displacementpiles:these include all solidpiles,includingtimber andprecastconcrete andsteel
or concrete tubesclosedatthe lowerendbya shoe or plug,whichmaybe eitherleftinplace or
extrudedtoforman enlargedfoot.
(2) Small displacementpiles:these includerolled-steelsections,open-endedtubesandhollow sections
if the ground entersfreelyduringdriving.
(3) Replacementpiles:these are formedbyboringorothermethodsof excavation;the boreholemaybe
linedwithacasingor tube that is eitherleftinplace orextractedasthe hole isfilled.
Drivenand cast-in-place piles : These are widelyusedinthe displacementpilegroup.A tube
closedat itslowerendbya detachable shoe orby a plugof gravel or dry concrete isdriventothe
desiredpenetration.Steelreinforcementislowereddownthe tube andthe latteristhenwithdrawn
duringor afterplacingthe concrete.These typeshave the advantagesthat:(1) the lengthcanbe varied
readilytosuitvariationinthe level of the bearingstratum;(2) the closedendexcludesgroundwater;(3)
an enlargedbase canbe formedby hammeringoutthe concrete placedatthe toe; (4) the
reinforcementisrequiredonlyforthe functionof the pile asafoundationelement,i.e.notfrom
considerationsof liftinganddrivingasforthe precastconcrete pile;and(5) the noise andvibrationare
not severe whenthe pilesare drivenbyadrophammeroperatingwithinthe drive tube.Drivenand
cast-in-place pilesmaynotbe suitable forverysoftsoil conditionswhere the newlyplacedconcretecan
be squeezedinwardsasthe drive tube iswithdrawncausing'necking'of the pile shaft,noristhe
uncasedshaftsuitable forgroundwhere waterisencounteredunderartesianheadwhichwashesout
the cementfromthe unsetconcrete.These problemscanbe overcome byproviding apermanent
casing.Ground heave candamage adjacentpilesbefore the concrete hashardened,andheavedpiles
cannot easilybe redriven.However,thisproblemcanbe overcome eitherbypreboringorbydrivinga
numberof tubesina groupinadvance of placingthe concrete.The latterisdelayeduntil pile drivinghas
proceededtoa distance of at least6.5 pile diametersfromthe one beingconcretedif small (upto3mm)
upliftispermitted,or8 diametersawayif negligible (lessthan3mm) upliftmustbe achieved.22The
lengthsof drivenandcast-in-place pilesare limitedbythe abilityof the drivingrigstoextractthe drive
tube and theycannotbe installedinverylarge diameters.Theyare unsuitable forriverormarine works

headroom.

9. Estimating Pile Capacity :
The ultimate load-carryingof apile isgivenbyasimple equationasthe sumof
the loadcarried at the pile pointplusthe total frictional resistance ( skinfriction) derivedfromthe soil-
pile interface.
Qu = Qp+ Qs
Where
Qu = ultimate pilecapacity
Qp = load-carryingcapacityof the pile point
Qs = frictional resistance
Pile Groups:
Pile groupsare usedtotransmitthe structural loadto the soil.A pile capis constructed
overgroup piles.The pile groupcanbe contact withthe ground,or well above the ground.
Determiningthe load-bearingcapacityof grouppiles.
Whenthe pilesare placedclose toeach other,a reasonable assumptionisthatthe stresstransmittedby
the pilestothe soil will overlap,reducingthe load-bearingcapacityof piles.Ideally,the pilesingroup
shouldbe spacedsothat the load-bearingcapacity of the groupshouldnotbe lessthanthe sumof
bearingcapacityof the individual piles. Inordinarysituationscenter-to-centerpile spacingis3 – 3.5D.
In our designitistaken3D = 3 *1.2m = 3.6m
The efficiencyof the load-bearingcapacityof a group pile maybe definedas
Ƞ=Q g(u) /(∑Qu)
Where Q g(u) = ultimate load-bearingcapacityof the grouppile
Q (u) = ultimate load-bearingcapacityof eachpile withoutthe groupeffect

17. Bearing : ( UsedElastomer Bearing inour case )
Bearingis a componentof a bridge whichtypicallyprovidesarestingsurface between
bridge piersandthe bridge deck.The purpose of a bearingisto allow controlledmovementand
therebyreduce the stressesinvolved.Movementcouldbe thermal expansionorcontraction,or

18. ABUTMENTS
An abutmentisa structure that supportone endof a bridge inotherword we can say that itis structure
locatedat the end& at the beginningof abridge.
Functionsof abutment
a) Supportthe bridge deckat end.
b) Retainthe embankmentof approachingroad.
c) Connectedthe approachroadto the bridge deck.

19. SUPERSTRUCTURE
GIRDERS: 20M SPANGIRDERS
MAIN GIRDER: These are the strongbeamsthat carry loadfrom superstructure tothe substructure.
A girderisa supportbeamusedin construction.Itisthe mainhorizontal supportof a structure.Girders
oftenhave an I-beamcross sectioncomposedof twoload-bearingflangesseparatedbyastabilizing

22. DECK SLAB
 The principal functionof abridge deckslabis to provide supporttolocal vertical loads(from
highwaytraffic,railwayorpedestrians) andtransmitthese loadstothe primarysuperstructure
of the bridge.
 As a resultof itsfunction,the deckwill be continuousalongthe bridge spanand( apart from
some railwaybridges) continuousacrossthe span.Asa resultof thisof thiscontinuity,itwill act
as a plate ( isotropicororthotropicdependingonconstruction) tosupportlocal patch loads.

23. CRASH BARRIER:
Crashbarriers keepvehicleswithintheirroadwayandpreventvehiclesfrom
collidingwithdangerousobstaclessuchasboulders,wallsorlarge stormdrains.Crashbarriersare also
installedatthe roadside topreventerrantvehiclesfromtraversingsteepslopes.Crash barriersare
normallydesignedtominimize injurytovehicleoccupants,injuriesdooccurin collisionswithcrash

To make sure theyare safe and effective,crashbarriersundergoextensive simulatedandfull scale crash
testingbefore theyare approvedforgeneral use. While crashtestingcannotreplicate everypotential
mannerof impact,testingprogramsare designedtodeterminethe performancelimitsof crashbarriers
and provide anadequate level of protectiontoroadusers.

24. CONCLUSSION
This training helpedme togain knowledge by experiencing various works taking
place int the site. By this in plant training I had a opportunity towitness various
situations inthe site andpractically and innovatively overcoming theminbrief I
learnedabout various newconstructiontechnologies andmore importantly I
experiencedthe whole constructionof laying out a span of a girder bridge. This
helpedme in clearing various theoretical andpractical doubts andmade me
somewhat realize the future scope of civil engineering
