Castleton Bridge Load Test Calculation

This document summarizes the load calculation for a load-deflection test on a 30.5m non-standard composite girder bridge with 7 leaves. It lists the dead load components including the steel girder at 342.94 MT, concrete deck slab at 576.43 MT, and total dead load of 919.37 MT. It also details the superimposed dead load of ballast and track totaling 335.05 MT. Finally, it specifies the live load with impact at 738.76 MT and calculates the total test load as 2177.87 MT, which is the total dead load plus 1.25 times the live load with impact.
