Parapet Capacity

This document contains design calculations for the superstructure of Junction 3A Bridge 23/MB/3AA, specifically for the transverse deck slab and parapet post capacity. It analyzes the required loading and provides the dimensions, reinforcement, material properties, and calculations for the moment and shear capacities of a 3 meter parapet panel strip. The calculations show that the provided reinforcement yields a moment capacity of 518 kN.m and a shear capacity of 587 kN, both exceeding the respective nominal design loads of 450 kN.m and 495 kN.
