1. NAME OF SCHEME 1.1 Type of highway

Road number (TBC), 10.8 metre wide single carriageway crossing the Trent and Mersey canal west of Burton, east of Tatenhill village.

1.2 Permitted traffic speed 30 mph (48 kph) – Proposed

1.3 Existing restrictions

None.

2. SITE DETAILS

2.1 Obstacle crossed

Trent and Mersey Canal

3. PROPOSED STRUCTURE 3.1 Description of Structure and working life

The proposed structure is to be a road bridge crossing the Trent and Mersey Canal, providing access to a new development called Branston Locks.

The new bridge is to consist of a single span reinforced concrete deck supported on reinforced concrete cap beam and sheet pile abutments. The widened carriageway cross section will consist of a 10.8 metre wide single carriageway with a 3.5 metre wide combined foot/cycle way to the south side and a 2.5 metre wide footway to the north side. All services will be carried in the footways of the new structure.

The clear span of the bridge between abutment faces will be approximately 16.130 metres, with a 16.5 degree skew. The wingwalls are to comprise of sheet piles and are to be structurally separate from the abutment sheet piles. Following consultation and outline approval by the Canal and River Trust, (CRT), the exposed faces of both the wingwalls and abutments are to be clad in masonry to match as closely as possible the adjacent Branston Canal Bridge.

3.2 Structural Type

The single span integral bridge is to be cast onto reinforced concrete capping beams supported by load bearing sheet piled abutments. The structure is to have a design working life is to be 120 years (working life category 5).

Superstructure – Composite concrete deck consisting of ‘TY11’ series precast beams and cast insitu reinforced concrete forming a traditional filler beam deck. The spaces between the ‘TY11’ beams will accommodate services prior to forming the filler beam deck.

Substructure – Cast insitu reinforced concrete cap beam and sheet pile foundations. Approach retaining walls either side of bridge to be sheet pile walls clad in masonry and sloped embankments. 3.3 Foundation Type The sheet piles forming the abutments are to be designed to provide vertical support to the bridge deck, and lateral resistance to earth pressure, thermal and longitudinal loads. Allowance for corrosion of the sheet piles will be made with reference to standard published wastage rates for steel in contact with soil. Sheet piles will be toed into Mercia rock mass approximately 11.0m below existing bridge Towpath level. 3.4 Span Arrangements The clear straight span between abutment walls will be approximately 16.13 metres, (16.830 metre skew span). Based on precast beam manufacturer’s guidance a minimum length of 500mm should be included to accommodate the integral bridge bearings. Based on a 950mm cap beam width it is intended to use a minimum bearing distance of 500mm for each bearing. Thus the bridge deck will have a single straight or square span of approximately 16.83 metres, skew angle of 16.5º, (difference of 16.5º normal to the foundations), and a skew span of 17.5 metres. 3.5 Articulation Arrangements Integral deck and abutment is to have no expansion joints or bearings. Global thermal, braking and traction effects are to be resisted by the soil behind the abutment sheet piles, which will be designed for increased K* lateral pressure in accordance with BA 42/96 – Design of Integral Bridges. The transition between the approach embankment and the bridge deck will be formed using a proprietary geogrid in two layers within the compacted fill. The geotextile will be fixed to the back of the piles using a bodkin connection below cap beam level. The geotextile transition will maintain the retained soil stability while the structurally integral bridge superstructure/abutment is allowed to move via flexure of the sheet piles. 3.6 Proposed classes / levels 3.6.1 Consequence class Consequence class to be CC2 (Medium) in accordance with Table B1, BS EN 1990; 2002.

The external exposed faces of the parapets are to be brick faced and the parapets will be topped with reconstituted stone copings. Road restraint barriers are also required on the approaches and departures to the bridge, consisting of N2 containment and W2 working width. The N2 road restraint barrier transition to parapets is to be confirmed. As the road speed will be less than 50 mph in accordance with TD19/06 an in-house assessment has been undertaken to verify the Vehicle Road Restraint System requirements. The internal faces of the parapets are to be brick faced and the parapets will also include stone copings. 3.8 Proposed Arrangements for Maintenance and Inspection 3.8.1 Traffic management Inspection and future maintenance to the bridge deck surface is to be by single way working controlled by temporary traffic signals or stop/go boards in accordance with Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual. Inspection and future maintenance to the bridge deck soffit and abutments may require permission from the Canal and River Trust. 3.8.2 Access Access to the deck soffit is to be by a platform mounted a boat, underbridge inspection vehicle, scaffolding or ladder. All will require permission from the Canal River Trust. 3.9 Sustainability issues considered – Materials and finishes Deck: Composite pre-stressed precast concrete TY11 beams and insitu reinforced concrete deck, protected by sprayed waterproofing, indicator mesh and topped with bitmac road and kerb construction. Concrete to the deck and superstructure to be strength class class C40/50 IIA (6-20% fly ash) or IIB-S (21-35% ggbs) to B.S. 8500-1:2006.

• Safety during maintenance

• Vehicle impact on the bridge superstructure and substructure

• Services over and under the bridge.

• Stability of canal and infrastructure.

3.11 Estimated cost of the proposed structure together with other structural forms considered (including where appropriate proprietary manufactured structure) and the reasons for their rejection (including comparative whole life costs with dates of estimates)

Estimated capital cost of the proposed structure only (including preliminaries and temporary works, but not including service diversions) is £1.7 million.

a. Upgrade and Widening of Existing Branston Canal Bridge Description Upgrade and widening of existing Branston Canal Bridge Cost £1.8M August 2015 (Spons price database book with inflation factor) Duration 30 weeks Summary The upgrade and widening of this bridge and approaches would require

unacceptable disruption to highway and canal users due to long diversions this option was rejected for social and political reasons.

b. New Steel Beam and Concrete Composite Deck Slab Bridge Description New steel beam and concrete composite deck slab Bridge.

Cost £1.5M August 2015 (Spons price database book with inflation factor ) Duration 26 weeks Summary Scheme rejected on practical construction issues by Canal River Trust

based on scheme archive information because of the need to support formwork over the canal in order to cast insitu parapet plinths.

c. New All Steel Bridge. Description New all steel beam Bridge using steel deck and parapets. Cost £1.3M August 2015 (Spons price database book with inflation factor) Duration 20 weeks Summary Scheme rejected due to aesthetic issues as bridge would span over canal

conservation area and would not blend with existing environment.

d. New Filler Beam Deck with Reinforced Concrete Spread Foundations. Description New Filler Beam Deck and RC Spread Foundations Cost £2.5M August 2015 (Spons price database book with inflation factor)

Duration 34 weeks Summary Scheme rejected due to high water table, 0.9m from existing ground level

which would require extensive temporary and drainage works. Also due to soft layers of soil stratum at depth which will increase the risk of long term settlement of this form of construction.

5. STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS 5.1 Methods of analysis proposed for superstructure, substructure and foundations. Superstructure The deck superstructure will be modelled as a two dimensional (2D) plane frame grillage using computerised analysis software package STRAP. Applied loading will be apportioned to the grillage members using the STRAP pre-processor software for bridge decks. The STRAP Bridge Module will be utilised to analyse the deck in accordance with the Eurocodes using the relevant Dynamic Load Models. A torsionless grillage analysis will be used to model the bridge in both the pinned supported and fixed end states to obtain the worstcase parameters, (flexure, shear and deflection), for the design of the bridge deck as a conservative approach. Substructure Substructure and foundations will be analysed using propriety soil structure interaction software Prosheet provided by Arcelor Mittal for preliminary design, which is similar to software packages utilised by SCI 163 “Integral Steel Bridges – Design Guidance” to establish boundary stiffness parameters. Detailed design will utilise simple elastic hand calculations and computer spreadsheets, using output data from the fixed end superstructure grillage in conjunction with all relevant loads determined for braking, thermal movement and accidental load effects will be utilised to develop a design envelope of load effects. Consideration will be given in the design of the effect of the staged construction sequence. As a detailed check on the above approach the structure will be modelled via STRAP as a plane frame, ( goal post portal structure ), using suitable spring supports to simulate soil stiffness parameters. This Winkler Spring Model approach is also valid in accordance with SCI 163 “Integral Steel Bridges – Design Guidance”. 5.2 Description and diagram of idealised structure to be used for analysis. See Appendix C, idealised structure diagrams for deck analysis and foundation design. 5.3 Assumptions intended for calculation of structural stiffness. Gross element stiffness will be used and element properties will be based on uncracked sections. The following properties will be used in the calculation of element stiffness :- Esteel = 205 kN/mm² , Econc = 31 kN/mm² (concrete grade C40/50 short term). For thermal deformation, settlement, shrinkage and effects of creep, a reduced stiffness corresponding to the cracked section is to be used.

5.4 Proposed earth pressure coefficients (ka, ko or kp) to be used in the design of earth retaining elements.

Grade 6N granular backfilling material will be used in compliance with BS EN 14475 and the Manual of Contract Documents for Highway Works, Series 600; φ’k and γ’ to be determined by material testing in accordance with table 6/1 of Series 600. Site specific geotechnical data has been developed, and a full geotechnical report detailing all relevant data is included with this document. K* will be calculated in accordance with BA 42/96 “Design of Integral Bridges” and Euronorm NCCI RFCS-CT-2005-00042 Design of Integral Abutment Bridges with small and medium spans. Where site specific values for earth pressure coefficients cannot be obtained then the material will be assumed to have a minimum internal angle of friction of 35 degrees and the following values will be used, Ko=0.6, Ka=0.27 and Kp=3.0 based on tables from Eurocode 7 and guidance from BA 42/96. 6. GEOTECHNICAL CONDITIONS 6.1 Acceptance of recommendations of section 8 of the geotechnical report to be used

in the design and reasons for any proposed changes A detailed geotechnical report is attached to this document. The conceptual design has been based on the geotechnical report issued see Appendix D. 6.2 Summary of design for highway structure in Geotechnical Design Report To be confirmed but refer to Highway Structure Summary Information table in Appendix D which is indicative of current geotechnical conditions. 6.3 Differential settlement to be allowed for in design of structure Anticipated differential settlement to be designed for is to be 20mm, (expected to be minimal), based on available geotechnical data and a series of 6 no. pile tests conducted on the 25th January 2016. All piles were tested until refusal with an equivalent 130 Tonne rated vibratory hammer at depths between 10 – 11.5 metres below towpath level. On this basis each pile had an ultimate tested capacity in excess of 1275 kN which will give an equivalent minimum ultimate support to the bridge deck of 2125 kN/m.
