As a district engineer at JKR Perak Tengah, you have been involved to lead a development project of designing a new bridge at Kampung Orang Asli. You had been assigned to design a bridge to span between the two piers of 15 m apart. The end supports of the bridge should be designed as pin supported at one end, and roller support at the other end. It is designed to allow for 2-way traffic to pass through at any given time. It is expected that the bridge should be able to sustain loads from the maximum number of vehicles that will pass through. Based on the assumed type, weight and length (e.g. motorcycle, car or lorry) and maximum number of vehicles on the bridge, calculate the maximum internal loads within the structural member(s) of the bridge. The design requires an analysis of the loading acting on the beam/structural members, shape of the members and support configurations, for the design to resist the carry load. Furthermore, provides the shear force and moment diagram acting along the beam. State all your assumptions made in detail.
