The live load for each track shall be as determined from Part. 2, Reinforced Concrete Design. The distribution of the live load to the culvert shall be in accordance with Figure 16-1 and Figure 16-2. € Track zepcinin es Base of Rall E-| Top of Box, & Box ‘Without Surchar Single Box Double Box Equivalent trame at G slabs & walls Figure 16-2. Dead Load b, No increase in load shall be used for multiple track loadings, ¢. The minimum lateral pressure on the sides of the box shall be calculated using the earth pressure coefficient determined by Article 16.4.2. 4, ‘The maximum lateral pressures that may be generated on the sides of the box shall be considered in the design, except that the earth pressure coefficient of Article 16.4.2 need not be applied to live loads. If the provisions of Article 16.4.2 d are used with respect to dead loads, then they shall be used for the calculation of maximum pressures from live loads also. * See Commentary 1 fern Ray Enugu Haran ane AREMA Manual for Railway Engineering 8.16.9
