Pier Wall Design

The document provides details of the design of piers P1 and P2 for a bridge. It includes calculations for flexural design, shear design, reinforcement requirements, permissible stresses, and crack width checks of the pier walls. Flexural design calculations show the pier wall meets minimum depth and reinforcement requirements. Shear design indicates the provided shear reinforcement is adequate. Checks for reinforcement limits, stresses and crack width confirm compliance with code specifications.
