General
Suramadu Bridge is an especially large bridge in Indonesia. Its approach bridges transverse
direction is formed by the eastern and western bridges. Its structure style is pre-stressed concrete
continuous box bridge and has V-style pile. The arrangement of the continuous beam is
40+780+40m,. Its the largest continuous length is 640m, and links with the main bridge by
V-style pier. The end of the continuous beam is 32m far away from the main bridges beam end.
The start pile number at Surabaya side is K1+457.5, and the end number is K2+129.5. At
Madura side, the start pile number is K2+947.5, and the end number is K3+619.5. The total
length at both sides is 1344m (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). In the transverse direction, the bridge has
bi-directional four-lane road, and its total width is 30m (see Fig. 3).
The approach bridge is formed by two pre-stressed concrete continuous box girders in
eastern and western side. Each box is 14.7m in width, and there is a 0.6m-width structure joint
between the two boxes flange girths. The box is a straight web plate and single-cell structure.
The width of the upper plate is 14.7m, and the floor plates width is 7.5m. The floor plate of box
is horizontal, but there is a 2% transverse slope in the floor plate. The web plates of the box are
different in height, and the height of box means the height of the boxs center. The height of span
center of two end and mid-span is 2.4m; in the root segment of the piers, the box is 4.4m high,
the other height of the main girder change with the 2nd parabola. In the closure segment of box,
the floor plate is 26cm thick, but in the root segment of the pier, the floor plate is 55cm thick; the
thickness of other segments floor plate change with the 2nd parabola. The thickness of the web
plate is 45cm or 60cm, and the concrete grade of the box is C50. The main girder of continuous
beam is single-cell with variable cross-sections. Fig.1 to Fig.3 are the plan view, side view and
the section of main girder.
The substructure of continuous beam is thin-wall hollow pier. The eastern and western piers
are independent, but the caps are integral. The transverse section of thin-wall hollow pier is
rectangular hollow section. Its width is 4m with 0.7m-thick wall along the bridge, and 7.5m with
0.6m-thick wall in transverse direction. In both directions, it has a 5050cm chamfer. The caps
of the approach bridge are rectangular style with the thickness of 3m or 3.5m. The foundation of
the approach is bored pile group with 1.8m in diameter. Each pier has 9 piles in both single

bridges, and the pile plane is arranged in rectangle with 3 piles in both transverse and
longitudinal direction. The minimum distance among piles center is 4.5m.
No.45 and No.48 piers are V-style. The carriageway and the deck act on the cross beam of
the V-style pier directly. The V-style pier is integral with beam and formed by eastern and
western parts in transverse direction. The cantilevered edge of the upper box is the same as
continuous beam with 0.6m. The caps of V-style in eastern and western parts are integral with
solid rectangular section. The section is 25.8m (transverse) 36.8m (longitudinal) in plane. The
elevation of the caps bottom is 1.00m, and 5.5m in the top, so the height of the cap is 4.5m. The
foundation of the V-style pier is large diameter bored pile foundation. The No.45 and No.48 piers
have 35 piles with 2.2m in diameter respectively. The piles are rectangular in plane with 7 piles
in transverse direction and 5 piles in longitudinal direction. The distance among the piles is 5.5m.

prestressed continuous beam situated at Surabaya side P36 ~ P45, the main bridge and
40+780+40m prestressed continuous beam situated at Madura side P48 ~ P57. The pile height
of continuous beams changes from 9.837m to 29.837m. The continuous beams of two bridges
share the same Pile cap and pile foundation, and set cross beam at the coping of two ends of
V-pier. So choose two bridges to establish model, as shown in Fig.3.1.

add springs of six directions on pile cap to simulate the action of pile foundation (such as
Fig.3.3), and through internal force of Pile cap bottom, inversely calculate the worst stress of
single pile by static method. The spring stiffness is confirmed by conditions of soil layers and
arrangement of piles through static equivalent principle, and the soil characteristics datum are
confirmed by m method. This method is very convenient.

In dynamic analysis model, the main beam is handled as spine beam, the beam and pier are
connected with the nonlinear support element, as a result, we merge the actual supports of pier

N is the sum of vertical counterforce which multiple supports bearings.
The calculation of approach bridge aiming at the architecture of limiting scour and
construction documents design adopt the nonlinear time history method to analyze their seismic

seismic response analysis. According to the principle of earthquake motions randomness and
controlling calculations, we choose the maximum value of 6 groups of seismic response. The
results are in Table 6.1 ~ 6.18.

Calculations
Through the initial checking, we can see: the stress in the 2500-year return period
earthquake is much lower than that under the static load. So the design is not controlled by the
2500-year return period earthquake load.

bending-resistance capacity of the main structures under 2500-year return period earthquake load

combination of piers the worst-case section respectively under 2500-year return period
earthquake load and Dead load. And the bearing capacity is also checked. The results in the
tables show all piers resistance are much larger than the section internal force except that No. 41
and 51 piers resistance are little larger under the 2500-year return period earthquake load in
longitudinal and vertical direction; all piers resistance of the worst-case section is larger than the
internal force under the 2500-year return period earthquake load in transverse and vertical
direction. So the piers are working under the elastic period. The earthquake-resistance
performance is already met.

each piles section needs to be checked under the 2500-year return period earthquake load.
Table 7.3.1 and 7.3.4 show the results of internal force combination in the bottom of the
Pile cap under the 475-year return period earthquake load in longitudinal and vertical directions
(dead load + earthquake load). The section stress of single pile is also given out. The stress in
tables is calculated by the current design code for highway bridges. Table 7.3.2 and 7.3.5 show
the results of internal force combination in the bottom of Pile cap under 475-year return period
earthquake load in transverse and vertical directions (dead load + earthquake load). The single
piles section stress result is also given out. The material of each pile is C30 concrete and
HRB335 steel bar. According to the code, the allowable stress of concrete under earthquake load
is 1.516.10=24.15MPa; and the allowable stress of steel bar under earthquake is
1.5325=487.5MPa. The results in tables show the piles working performance meet with
earthquake-resistance requirement.

Table 7.3.4 and 7.3.5 show the internal force combination result of each piles Pile caps
bottom (dead load + earthquake load) under the 2500-year return period earthquake load in
conditions of longitudinal + vertical direction and transverse + vertical direction. The
bending-resistance capacity of single pile is also given out. The results in tables show that the
pile foundations working performance meet with the earthquake-resistance requirement.

Conclusion
(1) According to above analysis, the structure is working in elastic period under 475-year
recurrence interval (10% in 50 year) earthquake load with longitudinal and vertical input or
transverse and vertical input.
(2) To the 2500-year recurrence interval (2% in 50year) earthquake load, in the longitudinal
direction, all the piers are working in elastic period with longitudinal and vertical input; with the
transverse and vertical input, the piers and structure are also all working in elastic period in the
transverse direction.
(3) To the 475-year recurrence interval (10% in 50year) earthquake load, with the
longitudinal and vertical input, the piles resistance is large than the requirement; with the
transverse and vertical input, the piles resistance is also large than the requirement. To the
2500-year recurrence interval (2% in 50year) earthquake load, the piles resistance is also large
than the requirement; and with the transverse and vertical input, the piles resistance is also large
than the requirement. On in all, the pile is all working in elastic period.
