1 General Provisions



1.0.1 This code is formulated with a view to unify the technical standard of railway bridge and culvert design, carry out the relevant laws and regulations and railway technical policies of the nation and make the design of railway bridge and culvert meet the requirement of safety and usability, advanced technology and economy and rationality.

1.0.2 This code is applicable to the design of railway bridge and culvert with Grade I, II standard gauge on the combine line of passenger and freight, passenger car that the design operation speed is or lower than 160 km/h, the freight car that the design operation speed is or lower than 120 km/h (80 km/h of 8 A Type freight car bogie) in railway network.

The applicable span of this code: the span of the concrete beam is or less than 96 m.

the span of the steel beam is or less than 168 m, the span of the steel sheet beam is or less than 40m,

1.0.3 The bridge is classified as the following according to its length:

Super major bridge — the bridge length is more than 500 m;

Major bridge — the bridge length is more than 100 m up to 500 m;

Medium bridge — the bridge length is more than 20 m up to 100 m;

Minor bridge — the bridge length is 20 m or lower.

Note: bridge length — means the length between the front ballast retaining wall of abutments for the beam bridge, the length between outside ends of two expansion and contraction joints between the upper side wall of arch and side wall of abutment for the arch bridge, the length between the outsides with the rigid frame along the span direction for the rigid frame bridge.

1.0.4 For the bridge and culvert design, the river history and actuality as well as its development trend shall be investigated concretely, the interrelation between bridge, culvert and water conservation, navigation, environment protection and industry and agriculture shall be taken into account, the geology condition of bridge site shall be explored so as to determine the correct design scheme.

1.0.5 During the design, fabrication, transportation, erection and operation, the bridge and culvert structure shall be possessed with specified strength, stiffness, stability and durability. The bridge structure shall be designed according to 100 years of service life. When designing the bridge and culvert structure, the computational check of the speed-limited passing for the long freight train shall be performed according to the relevant regulation in current Rating Code for Railway Bridge (file No. Tie Yun Han[2004] 120 ).

The structure shall be designed with advanced technology economically and rationally, the component shall be standardized as possible to be convenient to fabrication and mechanized construction, meeting the requirement of curing, emergency repair, detection and maintenance, equipped with the necessary facilities.

The bridge shall be designed combining with the environment and beautiful out-looking.

1.0.6 The dimensions and the construction materials adopted for the bridge and culvert structure shall be considered with the impact on the durability by the local temperature and environment.
