Number of Connectors in Bridges Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

No of Connector in Bridge = Slab Force/(Reduction Factor*Ultimate Shear Connector Stress)
N = P_{on slab}/(Φ*S_ultimate)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

No of Connector in Bridge - No of Connector in Bridge is total number of joints.
Slab Force - (Measured in Newton) - Slab Force at maximum positive moments.
Reduction Factor - Reduction Factor is constant term used as factor for load calculation.
Ultimate Shear Connector Stress - (Measured in Newton) - Ultimate Shear Connector Stress is the maximum strength in shear.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Slab Force: 245 Kilonewton --> 245000 Newton (Check conversion here)
Reduction Factor: 0.85 --> No Conversion Required
Ultimate Shear Connector Stress: 20 Kilonewton --> 20000 Newton (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

N = P_{on slab}/(Φ*S_ultimate) --> 245000/(0.85*20000)

Evaluating ... ...

N = 14.4117647058824

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

14.4117647058824 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

14.4117647058824 ≈ 14.41176 <-- No of Connector in Bridge

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
