ABSTRACT
A lattice steel truss pedestrian bridge with a shallow type of foundation is
analysed and designed. The superstructure is a steel structure at a height of 5m
from the ground level. The analysis and design of the super structure is done
using STAAD PRO software. Each member in the truss structure has been
connected to each other with the help of High Strength Friction Grip bolts.
However the entire structure is made up of steel, the staircase and foundation are
designed in concrete. Welding connections have also been used in order to
connect the entire steel structure with column and the same for staircase with
staircase column.
The design of staircase and foundation has been done manually based on
the limit state design method. The staircase designed is a general dog-legged
type of staircase with the general tread, rise distance and other typical
specifications. The foundation is a shallow type of foundation as the chosen
location is a rocky region. The components of the lattice steel truss pedestrian
bridge viz. the lattice steel truss, steel flooring plate, steel roof covering, cross
beams, gusset plates, High Strenth Friction Grip bolts, steel column, foundation,
staircase and handrail.
The entire structure is designed and analysed with the reference location
of Medavakkam T road junction where the structure is assumed to be
constructed over the shozhinganallur route.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1
GENERAL
A steel pedestrian bridge is a bridge designed for pedestrians and in
some cases cyclists, animal traffic andhorse riders, rather than vehicular traffic.
Steel pedestrian bridges conventionally reduce the cost and provide easy
handling
of
construction,
maintenance
and
repair.
It
complements
the landscape and can be used decoratively to visually link two distinct areas or
to signal a transaction. In many developed countries, steel pedestrian bridges are
both functional and can be beautiful works of art and sculpture. For poor rural
communities in the developing world, a footbridge may be a community's only
access to medical clinics, schools and markets, which would otherwise be
unreachable when rivers are too high to cross.
An enclosed steel pedestrian bridge between two buildings is sometimes
known as a skyway. Bridges providing for both pedestrians and cyclists are
often referred toas green bridges and form an important part of sustainable
transport movement towards more sustainablities. Footbridges are often situated
to allow pedestrians to cross water or railways in areas where there are no
nearby roads to necessitate a road bridge. They are also located across roads to
let pedestrians cross safely without slowing down the traffic. The latter is a type
of pedestrian separation structure, examples of which are particularly found near
schools, to help prevent children running in front of moving cars. Some
examples of steel pedestrian bridges are shown in Fig 1.1 and 1.2.

1.2
crossings, junctions and inaccessible road terminals in the cities of our country.
Unlike subways, steel pedestrian bridges are less economical, easy and fast to
construct. The need of the study is to determine the combined strength and
efficiency of the steel pedestrian bridge.
The increasing population and urbanization in the cities has led to more
number of traffics in urban and sub-urban areas of the country. In order to
facilitate better control over traffic on urban roads, separation of pedestrian
traffic from roads must be maintained. Pedestrian bridges save the time of the
pedestrians to cross the road. The design of a steel pedestrian bridge poses a
grave challenge to engineers due to its connections.
The pedestrian bridge provides safe and sustainable crossings and
provides technical assistance to local government and communities need simple,
easily applied guidelines on the selection and construction of effective water
crossings. Much rural travel takes place on local paths, tracks and village roads.
These provide essential access to water, firewood, farm plots and the classified
road network. Communities and/or local government are generally responsible
for this infrastructure.
To ensure footbridges are accessible to disabled and other mobilityimpaired people, careful consideration is also given to provision of access lifts
or ramps, as required by relevant legislation (e.g. Disability Discrimination Act
1995 in the UK). Some old bridges in Venice are now equipped with a stairlift so
that residents with a disability can cross them.

(910 m) footbridge across the Missouri River between Council Bluffs, Iowa,
and Omaha, Nebraska. It opened on September 28, 2008.
University located on the Missouri River adjacent the Omaha landing of
the bridge. The bridge lights include programmable controls that can display
multiple colors in the large lights at the top of the towers and alter brightness
and timing of the lights that run the entire length of the bridge. The lights were
officially unveiled in a ceremony on September 13, 2008. The bridge lights were
turned on while the Phil Collins song "In The Air Tonight" was played over a PA
system. The event was accompanied by fireworks.
The bridge is north of the Interstate 480 (I-480) girder bridge and
connects the Port of Omaha's Miller Landing to One Renaissance Center in the
5
former Dodge Park Playland in Council Bluffs. The lights on the bridge were
donated by Gallup, which has their corporate headquarters and Gallup.

CHENNAI: Five foot over-bridges or skywalks are set to be completed
in various parts of the city by the end of next week. Two are on Grand Southern
Trunk Road - near MEPZ and near government hospital in Chromepet. Two
others are on Taramani Link Road - near Perungudi and in Baby Nagar,
Velachery. The last is on Jawaharlal Nehru Salai, near SBOA School in Anna
Nagar.
However, the foot over-bridges with escalators will be thrown open to
the public only after the elections are over, said a state highways department
official.
Work on the projects started at the beginning of last year. "Everything is
set and we believe it will be a great boost to pedestrians. People have already
started using the FOB near MEPZ even though it is not formally opened and the
escalators are not working," said an official from the highways' metro wing.
Holabird & Root's award-winning glass and steel pedestrian bridge is the
new destination for residents and visitors of Davenport, Iowa, to experience the
Mississippi riverfront. The structure, a distinctive cable-stayed style bridge with 99
foot columns, spans 575 feet over a parking garage, highway, and heavily used
railroad tracks as part of the city's "River Renaissance" redevelopment project. At
night, LED lights create a rainbow of colors and penetrate glass panels set in the
floor of the walkway, illuminating the streetscape.

CHAPTER 3
METHODOLOGY AND SITE SELECTION
3.1
OVERVIEW
This section briefly describes the procedure adopted in the design of the
lattice steel truss, roofing, flooring, column, staircase and foundation. The site
for the proposed project has been selected considering environmental,
economical and aesthetic factors.
3.2
METHODOLOGY
The methodology of this design project commences with the drafting of
the plan for the lattice steel truss followed by the location of the columns. The
complete drawing of the structure is shown in fig 3.2.1. Instead of normal
flooring, beam design, the entire structure has been designed in steel. Steel
flooring and steel roofing has been provided with larger space where columns
are also located at equal distance as shown in the figure. The flooring and
roofing are nothing but galvanized steel plates provided with larger space. The
columns are hence located at the ends of the structure and in mid span of the
structure. As the roadway is a two-way road, the mid-span columns are located
at the centre median of the roadway. The lattice truss, flooring, roofing and
column are then drafted. The design loads are applied and analysis of the
superstructure is done using STAAD PRO software.
3.3
staircase is being joined to the truss bridge on either side of the it. Although the
pedestrian bridge is fully designed in steel, the staircases are designed in
concrete. The staircase designed here is a dog-legged staircase and a truss is
designed for the staircase also. The pedestrian bridge is at a height of 5m from
the ground level. The site of construction is at Medavakkam-Shozhinganallur T
road junction point.

As per the above general specifications and with the help of the above
layout of the lattice steel pedestrian bridge, the design calculations are
performed manually and the analysis is also done using STAAD PRO V8i
analysis software and the results are obtained and are compared with the results
obtained using manual calculations.
Following is the 3-dimensional rendered view of the lattice steel truss
pedestrian bridge as designed in STAAD PRO V8i analysis software.

DESIGN OF STRUCTURE
= N-type trusses.
Span of girder

Live load
= 4 kN/m.
Height of truss
= 2.4m.
Flooring
Steel Plates
Span
= 2.25 m.
Live load
= 4.0 kN/m.
= 77000 x 0.03
= 2310 N/m2 .
Total load
= 4000 + 2310
= 6310 N/m2 .
Maximum B.M
= (wl2)8
= (6310 x 2.252)/8
= 3993.047 Nm.
Moment of resistance
16
Equating the moment of resistance to maximum Bending Moment.
1/6 bct x 1000 x302
bct
= 3993.047 x 103
= 26.62 N/mm2 < 45 N/mm2 .
Since, the obtained value of bct (bending in axial compression) is less than the
nominal value, the design is safe.
Maximum shear force
= wl/2
= (6310 x 2.25) /2 .
= 7098.75 N.
= 1.5 x 0.237
= 0.356 N/mm2 < 0.8 N/mm2.
Since, the obtained value of maximum shear stress is less than the nominal
value, the design is safe.
Moment of inertia of the plate
= (1000 x 303 ) /12
= 225 x 104 mm4
Maximum deflection
= (5/384) x (wl4/EI)
= 4.679 mm.
Permissible deflection
= span/325
= 2250/325
= 6.932 mm > 4.679mm.
Since, the obtained value of permissible deflection is less than the value of
maximum deflection, the design is safe.
17
4.3.2 DESIGN OF ROOF FOR TRUSS
The non-corrugulated sheet is chosen for roofing and its thickness is assumed to
be 3mm.
Self weight of plate
= 231 N/mm2.
= 146.18 N-m.
bct
Since, the obtained value of bct (bending in axial compression) is less than the
nominal value, the design is safe.
Maximum shear force
= 259.875 N.
= 0.087 N/mm2.
Since, the obtained value of maximum shear stress is less than the nominal
value, the design is safe.
4.3.3 BOTTOM CROSS BEAM
The bottom cross beam has been designed in consideration with the clear
walking width between the primary beams, as clearly shown in the plan of the
structure. Hence, the steel plate flooring is going to be laid over the bottom cross
beam and its design is explained below.
Clear walking width between main beams
= 3.0 m.
Assume the length of cross-beam to be a little more, say by 0.3m.
This will also be equal to c/c distance between the lattice girders as the cross
girders will be supported over panel points of trusses.
Length of cross girders
= 3.3 m.

Load transmitted to the cross girder from the floor,
W1
= 3 x 2.25 x 6310

= 17841.656 N-m.
= (17841.656 x103)/165
= 108131.249 mm3 .
= 43252.5/2
= 21626.25 N.
Shear stress, va
= (21626.25/(150 x 5.4))
= 26.669 N/mm2 < 100 N/mm2
Since, the obtained value of shear stress is less than the nominal value, the
design is safe.
1. Permissible deflection
= span/325
= 10.154 mm.
2. Maximum deflection
= (5/384) x (wl4/EI)
= 6.952 mm > 10.154 mm.
Since, the obtained value of maximum deflection is greater than the value of
permissible deflection, the design is safe.
19
4.3.4 DESIGN OF TOP CROSS BEAM
The top cross beam has been designed in consideration with the clear width
between the top primary beams, as clearly shown in the plan of the structure.
Hence, the galvanized steel sheet roofing is going to be laid over the top cross
beam and its design is explained further.
Load transmitted to the cross beam from the roof
= 1559.25 N.
Assuming self weight of cross beam as 150 N/mm.
Total load, W
= 2054.25 N.
= 847.378 N-m
= 5135.624 mm3.
= 1027.125 N.
Shear stress, va
Since, the obtained value of maximum shear stress is less than the nominal
value, the design is safe.
2. Permissible deflection
Maximum deflection
= (5wl4)/(384EI)
= 2.918mm < 10.154mm.
Since, the obtained value of permissible deflection is less than the value of
maximum deflection, the design is safe.

4.3.5 FORCES IN TRUSS MEMBERS
The forces in members of the steel truss are calculated using Influence Line
Diagram method as diagrammatically represented in the figure 4.2.
The N- type truss used is shown in Fig.
Dead load from the cross beam
= (43252.5-(4000x2.25x3.0))/(2x2.25)
= 3611.667 N/m.
= 1000 N/m.

Check
From IS 800 : 2007, clause 10.4,
The choice of a particular bolt should satisfy the following condition.
Vdsf
= fnekhFo
= 0.5x1x1x(0.7x800x3.14x162)/4
= 56297.34 N.
Vdsf
= Vnsf /mf
= 56297.34 / 1.1
= 51179.400 N.
= 12 x 51179.400
= 614.153 kN.
But
Vsf
= 200 kN.
Since, shear force acting in the joint (Vsf ) is less than shear capacity of bolts in
the joint (Vdsf ), the design is safe.

and girders to columns or to connect truss members. Gusset plates not only serve
as a method of joining steel members together but they also strengthen the joint.
They can be used in bridges and buildings along with other structures.
Galvanized steel offers more protection from rust, so when the gusset
plate is outside, galvanized steel is usually used. The gusset plate is usually
painted to match nearby steel and fixtures and to give it an extra layer of
protection. For channel section, the connection is done with the help of using
both gusset plate and gusset angle. The sizes of the gusset plates are designed
using the consideration of pitch and end distances.

CHAPTER 5
CONCLUSION
5.1
SUMMARY
The section deals with the overview of the entire project report. The
lattice steel truss is analyzed on STAAD PRO and the result is obtained. The
manual design of the entire structure is provided, with reference to the result
thus obtained by STAAD PRO. The bending moment and shear force is checked
according to the STAAD PRO result. And hence, connections are provided to
the designed members. The design of welded connections and HSFG bolted
connections are described in the previous chapter.
5.2
CONCLUSION
The loads considered for the structure were the dead load, live load and
wind load ( wind speed of 50m/s ). Analysis of the structure by STAAD PRO
results in a dead load of magnitude of 194.537kN, live load of magnitude
363.6kN and a wind load of magnitude 226.8kN. For the above magnitude of the
applied load, the column for the structure and the foundation of the structure are
designed. Although the entire structure is designed in steel, the staircase and
foundation have to be designed in concrete. The design of lattice steel truss,
flooring and roofing are designed based on the provisions according to the code
book IS800 : 2007, steel tables. The design of staircase and foundation are
designed based on the provisions according to the code book SP16 and IS 456 :
2000.
