Cantilever Pier caps are structural components that have a complex arrangement, nonetheless modelling them is quite simple on MIDAS civil. General Configuration Before we begin designing the pier cap, a crisp picture of the arrangement must be systematized. In this context, the configuration shown in the sketch would readily help. What makes this piercap special is the incidence of two types of girders-concrete I-Sections and a Single Celled Box girders. The metro line meets

How i designed seismic arrestors for a very challenging metro project INTRODUCTION A seismic arrestor is characterised by its function to bear the impact of seismic forces on a bridge structure and the direction of forces it must bear. Depending upon the direction of seismic forces acting upon it, a seismic arrestor can be classified into a longitudinal and transverse seismic arrestor, resisting longitudinal and transverse forces respectively. Many factors decide the design o
