Bongaigaon Thermal Power Project (3x250 MW) Switchyard Package

DESIGN OF CABLE TRENCH SECTION 1-1

Safe Bearing Capacity SBC = 70 KN/m2 AT 1.5 M AS PER SPEC.

Grade of Concrete fck =M 25 N/mm2 (REFER CH. C0 pg.24 )

Density of Concrete gconc = 25 KN/m3

Reinforcement yield stress fy = 500 N/mm2

Density of water gwater = 9.81 KN/m3

Angle of repose q = 0 Deg

CABLE TRENCH DIMENSION:

Cable trench width Cw = 1.9 m

Toe Projection Ct = 0.00 m

Cable trench depth from GL D = 1.125 m

Top cover slab thickness TRthk = 0.090 m

Pad thickness Dpad = 0.150 m

Wall thickness Wthk = 0.150 m

Plinth level from GL PL = 0.3 m

Length of cable tray tier L = 0.75 m

Point load at end of cable tier W = 0.74 kN

UDL in the cable tray tier w = 1.52 kN/m

No of cable trays n = 3 Nos

Active earth pressure Ka = (1- sin q) = 1.000

DESIGN OF TOP COVER SLAB

Effective span l = 1.9 + 0.150

Self weight of slab for 90mm thk. = 0.09 x 25

Total UDL on slab for width mm 300 w =( 2.25 + 14.71 ) X 0.3

Maximum bending Moment M = (wl2)/8

Area of steel required Ascreq = 0.760 x 69 x 300

Provide tor steel dia### mm @ c/c distance of 100 mm

Area of steel for### mm bar = 113.097 mm2

Minimum distribution steel percent = 0.12 %

Area of steel required Ascreq = 0.12 x 90 x 300

DESIGN OF SIDE WALLS

Pressure due to soil P1 = 1.000 x 18 x 1.125

The above pressure acts at a distance of = 1.125 /3

Moment at base of wall = 20.25 x 0.375

Calculation of moments in the cable tray

Moment due to cable tray tiers = 0.9825 x 3

Considering a surcharge load of 20kN/sq m on wall face = 10 x 0.975 x 1

Total moment = 7.59375 + 2.948 + 4.875

Since Moment is given by BM = 0.133 fck bd2

Effective depth of wall required d2 = 15.4163 x 10 6

Effective depth provided d = 150 - 30 - 12

Area of steel required Ascreq = 0.498 x 108 x 1000

Provide tor steel dia### mm @ c/c distance of 150 mm

Area of steel for### mm bar = 113.097 mm2

Area of steel provided/m = 113.097 x 1000

Minimum distribution steel percentage = 0.12 %

Area of steel required Ascreq = 0.12 x 150 x 1000

DESIGN OF BOTTOM SLAB:

Consider loads per meter length of cable trench

Weight of top roof cover slab = 0.09 x 2.200 x 25

Weight of side walls = 0.15 x 1.125 x 25 x 2

Weight of Base Slab = 2.20 x 1 x 0.150 x 25

Total Weight = 4.95 + 8.438 + 8.25

Reaction at Wall Supports =( 21.6375 - 0.15 x 25 )/ 2

Pressure at bottom of base slab = 21.6375

= 9.835 kN/m2 < 70.0 kN/m2

Net Pressure = 9.835 - 0.15 x 25

Design of bottom reinforcement:

Effective depth provided = 150 - 30 - 6

Referring to Table 3 of Design Aids

Area of steel required Ascreq = 0.267 x 114 x 1000

Provide tor steel dia### mm @ c/c distance of 150 mm
