Abstract

Bridges play a vital role in modern transportation systems, and reinforced cement concrete (RCC) bridges are widely used due to their strength, durability, and cost effectiveness. This project deals with the analysis and design of an RCC bridge using STAAD Pro software in accordance with Indian Roads Congress (IRC) specifications. The study considers various types of loads such as dead load, live load, impact load, wind load, and seismic load as per IRC: 6–2010 and IS 456–2000 provisions. A three-dimensional finite element model of the RCC bridge is developed in STAAD Pro, and structural components such as deck slab, beams, columns, piers, and foundations are analyzed. Vehicle loadings including IRC Class A and IRC Class AA are applied to evaluate critical bending moments, shear forces, stresses, and deflections. The design of structural elements is carried out based on the obtained results, ensuring safety, strength, stability, and serviceability requirements. The outcomes from software analysis are compared with theoretical understanding, demonstrating the reliability, accuracy, and efficiency of STAAD Pro in bridge design. This study provides a systematic and practical approach for the analysis and design of RCC bridges under standard loading conditions.
