. The problem therefore resolves itselfinto investigating this abutment for stability and proportioningthe steel. The vertical forces are the dead load weight of the bridge, the live load on the bridge and the weight of the abutments The loads coming to the abutment due to the dead load weight of… … <5ecf/on of A hutment 55 abutment. Since the abutment will be as long as the overall widthof the bridge or 18 - 8, the load per foot of abutment equals 829,500 - 12f£50 lbs The weight of the abutment acts at its center of gravitythe calculations for which are shown in the table.
