ABSTRACT
Foot Over bridges are necessary when need to offer a clear path for people to cross a highway and
another physical impediment. They typically need a structure that is quite lightweight because they
transport are relatively low when compared to the toll highways or railroad bridges. But since they
typically have to offer a lengthy clear span, stiffness starts to matter. The advent warrants careful
consideration because bridges are typically anticipated to be practically visible to the public. All
requirements for a footbridge are met by the economically advantageous and aesthetically appealing
designs made of steel. Due to the quick and extensive installation of foot over bridge.
Now Numerous bridges constructed in seismic zones are not sufficiently earthquake resistant. To
meet the needs of these enhanced tourists on the constrained land, the length of the bridge will be
increased through medium to large size. The weakest parts of the building start to fall apart during an
earthquake. Typically, weak points are caused by form stiffness, mass discontinuities, and geometry.
With this project, we can design the best foot over bridge, including connection details, calculation of
structural components, and foundation detailing for the foot over bridge construction.
The main goal of this project is to comprehend how to assess and construct a Truss using STAAD
Pro. An effective structural engineer is crucial in today's market, which is expanding quickly and
becoming more competitive. As a follow-up, an effort is made to evaluate and build a Truss using the
STAAD pro program. The design is finished using manual load calculations and STAAD Pro analysis.
Structures were subjected to their own weight in addition to dead and live loads, wind pressure, and
other factors using the load case data from STAAD Pro. According to the specifications of IS 875,
STAAD Pro estimated wind loads at various heights while accounting for the provided wind
strengths. We are attempting to examine the steel construction utilizing the trial-and-error approach
while employing various sizes and forms of steel pieces.and Staad Pro program to analyze the
structure. Buildings must take into account minimum design loads such as dead loads, imposed loads,
as well as other outside loads in order to comply with their fundamental structural safety standards. It
is envisaged that strict respect to the loading criteria established in this code will guarantee the
structural integrity of constructions that are currently being developed.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
A steel truss bridge is to be designed and analyzed before being constructed to connect the two zones of
a particular place that are separated by an obstruction. the obstruction may be a road, railway, or any other
physical obstruction to avoid it. in the past centuries, the bridges are designed by manual calculations and
then by the advent of powerful and helpful software the designing And Analyzing
For distances between 10 and 20 meters, and maybe up to 25 meters, a steel truss footbridge was
determined to be the optimum option when building wharfs for temporary backings for pillar-style
footbridges is impractical. Furthermore, docks should be considered at ranges greater than 10 meters where
they are an option. Considered to be the points of interest are:
The necessary steel sections should be available at major asset hubs. The segments are likely to be more
consistent in fit and size than timber segments, allowing for the easy production of standard truss layouts. -
Joints are easier to create than they are in timber trusses.
A conventional outline should be able to be created in a medium-sized workshop and then transported to
the site in advantageously calculated pieces. Darting the components together and installing a wood deck are
tasks that may be completed on-site under the guidance of a KNowledgeable expert by local artisans and
other people who are skilled with their hands.
The scaffold may be divided into 3 segments for transportation at each level:
Individuals who are transported and propelled together after being predrilled at a workshop. For this
circumstance, each piece must be transported 24 kilometers, beginning on a rocky terrain and ending at
the location of the footbridge. This method calls for careful gathering on site and comprehensive,
accurate probing of workshop apertures.
In the workshop, Boards are made from the cut and welded steel parts, which are then pierced for
assembly into catapults. Boards are delivered to the site and assembled using darts there. This drastically
reduces the need for pre-penetrating and group work. Boards can weigh as much as 100 kg.
In the workshop, boards are put together to form modules that are then delivered to the site. On site, the
modules are recorded all at once. This will demand the smallest amount of neighboring gathering labor.
Modules will likely weigh between 300 and 400 kg, making them extremely heavy to carry. Only if
trucks have direct access to the footbridge site is this method likely to be practical.
The quantitative and qualitative accident analysis evidence as well as other supporting data are
summarized in risk-based roadway planning.Future volume traffic buildup is taken into account since
available road space is a finite resource. Future traffic levels may be predicted, and suitable junctions are
suggested.
Construction and management of lights at various crossroads are part of physical traffic control, and
they are done according to the amount of traffic and the best time for that intersection.
Signal control at junctions provides information on the Green Period, which considers the count
fortraffic volume each junction every Fifteen minutes, as well as the various signal design strategies.
The weight-age analysis technique, in which the accident cost ratio is utilized to establish road safety, is
Known as road safety management.

BRIDGES
A. INTRODUCTION TO BRIDGES
A bridge is a building constructed to span a dip, gap, or obstruction like a river, channel, canyon, valley,
road, or railway with vehicles, trains, or other moving goods. The type of bridge is chosen to satisfy the
demand based on the objective and the obstruction. A bridge is referred to as a highway bridge if it was built
to carry cars, and a railway bridge if it was used to carry trains. Aqueduct bridges are bridges used to
transport canals and pipe lines, and foot bridges are bridges built specifically to carry people, bicycles, and
animals.
B. BRIDGE CLASSIFICATION
Based On Resting
A bridge can be either a deck or a through kind. In contrast to deck-type bridges, which place the surface
of the road or railroad over the underlying support structure, From bridges place it at the bottom of the main
load bearing component.
C. STEEL BRIDGE
The strength and longevity of structural steel above other building materials are its key advantages. When
compared to concrete, it gives a better compression strength to cost ratio. Steel has a significantly higher
stiffness to weight ratio than concrete. Thus, the use of structural steel in bridge construction is effective and
cost-effective.
The strongest steels are made of carbon steel that has undergone heat treatment. After rolling, they
undergo heat treatments called normalizing, quenching, or tampering to increase their strength.
For structural steel to be used in bridge building, it must have certain physical characteristics, including
strength, ductility, brittle fracture resistance, weldability, and weather resistance. These characteristics are
dependent on the alloying of the steel.
E. DECK SLAB
Depending on their location and required size, steel pedestrian footbridge designs change. Longer spans
frequently require a simple beam bridge; however, in this project, the beam's span is greater.
F. STEEL TRUSS
Steel trusses are extensively employed to construct bridges of all sizes throughout the world. It is a
beneficial ingredient that provides quick-acting and durable remedies. Steel has long been recognized as the
cheapest material for a range of bridges.
It predominates in long span bridges, railway bridges, footbridges, and medium span highway bridges.
Highway buildings with shorter spans are now doing the same.
CHAPTER THREE
LITERATURE REVIEW
A technical analysis and design for a 50-meter-long steel-truss railway bridge were offered by Shubhank
Gupta et al. in 2017. To find the least expensive and most stable part, the bridge with equal train applied
loads of 32.5 tons was previously divided into several types of truss segments. Design and analysis are
carried out using the tool staad pro to compare and pick the best stable pieces for each segment. The
structural components of each truss were created in accordance with the Indian Roads Congress Code and
Indian Railway Standard Code.
J. Blanchard, B. L. Davies, J. W. Smith [1, This research suggests a cap on the permissible increasing rate
of the footbridge deck, shaking beneath person on foot stacking, based on early investigations of human
resistance. The maximum vertical acceleration of a footbridge caused by the linked dynamic stack of a
moving man may be calculated using a formula. Finally, computational results demonstrated that the
safety of this stacking would be consistently guaranteed by static stacking conditions. Here, wind-related
vibration is disregarded.
Goyal, Pradeep K., and Kumar, Ramesh The design for a steel arch bridge in Jaipur was depicted using
Staad Pro by Dhaka in 2017. The 350-meter span, 13.3-meter width, and mean height of 29.977 meter of
the research's proposed arch bridge are its dimensions. Wind loads, seismic stress, live loads, and dead
loads are all taken into consideration when designing arch bridges. To finalize the design, Staad Pro's
structure evaluation and planning tools are combined with Indian requirements.
The Rochefort-Martrou Transporter Bridge crosses the Charente River.FerdinandArnodin built the
Rochefort-Martrou transporter bridge to across the Charente River; it went into operation on July 8th,
1900, and cost 586599 French francs. Its height is 59 meters, and its breadth is 139.916 meters. Between
1933 and 1934, the deck beams and suspension were changed and upgraded. The bridge was suspended
by a nearby vertical lift bridge in 1967, putting a stop to its use. It was designated as a historic monument
on March 30, 1976, and it underwent renovation in 1996. It is a popular tourist destination and is still in
operation.

METHODOLOGY
This project's goal is to outline a foot over scaffold, along with association and foundation areas of
interest, and to dissect it. Below these basic requirements are taken into consideration.
Broad writing reviews that referenced books and specialist articles failed to understand the subject's
central premise.
Choosing an appropriate foot over scaffold model.
Calculating loads and selecting preliminary cross-segments of various auxiliary people.
Geometrical demonstration and a fundamental analysis of the foot over scaffold for various stacking
scenarios in accordance with IS Codal arrangements.
Results interpretation. For reaching the Aforementioned locations, the following exploration must be
finished:
Using STADD, a foot over bridge is now displayed and examined as a three-dimensional construction.
STAAD Pro contains cutting-edge restricted component (FEM) and dynamic examination capabilities in
addition to cutting-edge UI, perception devices, competent investigation, and plan motors. STAAD
genius is the industry standard for everything from show time, investigation, and configuration to
representation and outcome validation. Internationally recognized engineers practiced developing
STAAD experts. It has been created for more than 20 years and complies with ISO 9001 standards.
(STAAD.Pro) or STAAD an auxiliary investigation and outline PC program, was created for the first
time in 1997 by Research Engineers International in Yorba Linda, California. Iowa State University uses
STAAD-III for Windows, a more seasoned version that Research Engineers International acquired in late
2005, to instruct common and fundamental specialists. It wasutilized for the DOS-Window architecture at
first. The corporate version of STAAD Pro is one of the basic research and planning systems that is most
frequently utilized. It supports a few restrictions for the configuration of steel, cement, and wood.
Arrangement of Foot Over Bridge
A 43-meter-high footbridge is studied and planned. The tower's configuration is as follows:
Bridge span is 43 meters.
Bridge height is 7.5 meters.
Walkway width: 3 meters
Each truss has a 3 m separation.
CHAPTER FIVE
Staad Pro was used to make a model of the Foot over Bridge, and the distance between the nodes is
shown by the lines linking them.
STAAD Pro software was used to draw the structure model displayed in the previous illustration. In
order to properly execute the nodes, the software's X, Y, and Z axes are used to create the nodes. Once the
nodes have been coordinated, they are connected using the "Add Beam" option in the toolbar. By choosing
this, you can join the nodes to form a beam or column element. This structure has beencreated using a series
of nodes.
As diverse steel structural sections and other characteristics can be observed in the 3D rendering view in
the Staad pro software. The Following Elements Make Up the Model.
The red lines in this illustration depict the steel beams and column bending moments that were
determined through structural analysis. The process of building a structural model begins with the creation
of the model, followed by the assignment of its properties, loading conditions, and analysis to be used in the
post-processing and designing of the structure.
When the analysis is finished, the software provides an output file with the results, detailing each
member's stress and strain reactions and whether it is safe to proceed with additional design work on that
member. From there, the analysis moves on to the next stage.
If the member fails, the output of such elements is not visible on the modeling view, but the given
deflection and bending moments are shown in the output file. The given bending moment is given in
millimeters in both the figure and the output report.
In the picture above, member displacements are presented after the structure has been loaded and
evaluated. The findings are then displayed in accordance with the loading on the structure, and more
displacements are shown on the structure. Particularly, each and every member can be examined by
selecting the member, and each element's properties and deflection are KNown. If a member fails, we can
change its member properties and add more properties from the section database to increase its strength.
Therefore, this result demonstrates the displacement of the members and may be corrected by being aware
of the output results.
Figure depicts the stresses placed on each beam during the analysis of the structure; the figure's output
depicts how each beam responded to the loads. The beams of the staircase are the most affected element in
this diagram, where the red lines indicate negative stressand the blue lines indicate positive bending stress.
The pattern formed according to the strains placed on the member; the greater the rise, the greater the stress
placed on that member; hence, by being aware of this, additional analysis and design processes are initiated.
Every single member can be shown with its stresses clearly in the modeling view, allowing us to
understand how the load is acting.on that specific member, we can either utilize this to improve or adjust the
member's attributes and lessen the stresses that are imposed on the member, or we may use the staad pro
program to shorten the clear span of the model.

RESULTS
A 43 m long foot over bridge is studied and designed. The tower's configuration is as follows:
Span length= 43m
Height of FOB=7.5m
Size of pedestal= 300*300
Using IS: 875(Part 3)1987 and STADD.Pro V8i, wind load is computed.The structure is under a total
wind load of 1.4 KN/M2.
The amount of the wind load acting on pedestrians crossing a bridge will already be quite low.Although
the construction is more open and has more apertures, high-intensity winds and earthquakes are the major
causes of the towers' demise. Therefore, earthquake and wind loads should be given a high safety factor.
CHAPTER 8
CONCLUSION
In today's quickly changing construction business, understanding the methods for building, and
designing bridges, such as foot over bridge structural components, columns, beams, loadings on foot over
bridge, etc., is crucial. So, accurate guesswork is required throughout the footbridge's design and analysis.
If we can discover a way to enhance the existing ineffective design or uneconomical manner of the foot
over bridge, there is a lot of potential for cost and resource savings. The truss in the building of the
footbridge was historically made of just angle sections, but now days numerous sections are preferred
because of their low labor and material costs.
The footbridge will experience less wind stress than the towers since it has more apertures, however
towers typically collapse due to earthquakes and strong winds, hence the towers require a high safety factor.
