Introduction
A Road Under Bridge (RUB) was required to
be constructed by Northern Railway
Construction Organization as a part of ring
road bypass (constructed by PWD) from
Salimgarh fort to Velodrome road in
connection with Common Wealth Games2010. This road was proposed to move along
Bela road and pass under west end approach
of old Rail cum Road Bridge over river
Yamuna.
Barrel Length:
No. of tracks to be crossed: 2 Nos.
Volume of Rail traffic:
Very heavy
Cost of Work:
Rs. 12.16 crores
Location of Work
RUB
Remedial Measures
Soil Stabilization: It has been achieved through
Soil Nailing technique designed by CRRI.
Pipe Arch Roofing: It has been adopted to
prevent the surcharge/cushion soil from caving in
during box pushing.
Gravity type stone masonry retaining walls: Its
X-section and depth has been ascertained by GPR
exploration to check :
o Feasibility of construction of thrust bed.
o Internal batter particularly in front retaining wall.
Remedial Measures
Cutting Edge: Conventional design has been
modified to have longer cantilevering front portion
strong enough to withstand train load and to
facilitate comparatively flatter slope of cut during
pushing.
Drag Sheet: The arrangement reduces frictional
forces acting on box during pushing and thereby
minimizes jacking effort and track disturbances
otherwise encountered during box pushing.
Steel Support System: It is designed to prevent
bulging of rear retaining wall in face of
approaching box
Trial trenching was done, in embankment and thrust bed location, to identify
buried utilities such as S&T and Electrical cables, water supply pipeline etc.
All the cables, about 80 nos., and C.I. pipeline-300 dia were dug out, realigned
and protected prior to starting of box pushing work.
CRS sanction was obtained and Speed restriction of 20 Kmph + Stop dead ,if
required, was imposed.
Input parameters:
Live Load: 110 kN/m on each track.
Geometry of cut slope: Inward slope -83o
Depth of Over burden above box: 1m
Soil Properties:
o Angle of internal friction: 29o
o Bulk density of soil:17 kN/m3

Box No. 3
Total Nails: 640 Nos. (37 Nos. Grouted + 603 Nos. Driven)
Total Length of Nails:5750m (555m Grouted + 5195m Driven)
Grand Total Nos. of nails in all three boxes= 2426 Nos.
Grand Total length of nails in all three boxes= 20,900 m
To push precast box segment, reaction is obtained from thrust bed. For this, screed is
dismantled at pin pocket location, pin pockets are cleaned, pins are inserted and
Hydraulic Jacks- 8/10 nos. are installed between pins and bottom slab of the box
with packing plates and spacers.
A 20mm thick plate is provided , butting against bottom slab of box, in front of the
jacks to avoid damage to concrete surface.
Nail anchor plates are removed and earth is manually excavated in front of cutting
edge in a way to get annular clear space of 300mm all-round.
Anchor plates are refixed in position and uniform pressure is applied to the jacks
through Power Pack.
After complete push (maximum 300mm) jacks are released, protruding nails are gas
cut/driven and jacks again packed with packing plates and spacers.
Then 2nd box segment is slewed and brought in position behind 1st box segment.
8 nos. Jacks ,each of 200 Tons capacity, are housed between two box segments in
addition to 8 nos. Jacks already provided between thrust bed and 2nd box segment.
3 nos. Jacks ,each of 100 Tons capacity, are provided in 3 slots made in each side
walls to facilitate correction of line and level of box during pushing.
Earthwork is now done in front of 1st box segment and it is pushed. Protruding nails
are gas cut/driven and anchor plates are refixed in position.
Thereafter, jacks housed between two box segments are released and then 2nd box
segment is pushed.
Process is repeated till both the box segments are pushed to required position.
Cutting Edge is dismantled & front face of 1st box segment is cast in plumb.
Line and Level of the box is to be checked after every push. In case of deviation,
corrective action scheme to be immediately formulated and implement during next
push.
Line and Level of the tracks is to be checked and restored after every push.
Earth must not be excavated beyond the tip of cutting edge i.e. tip of cutting edge
must always remain buried in earth.
Boxes are to be pushed when there is no train on any of the tracks. Pushing needs to
restricted to day hours.
