The post-tensioned concrete pier head P87 at STA. 69+700 of the Yogyakarta–Bawen Toll Road Section 1, with a total length of 48.7 meters and designed as a straddle bent pier, has relatively large dimensions, resulting in a significantly high self-weight. This condition leads to an increase in the demand for other construction materials, such as reinforcement, prestressing steel, and scaffolding. Furthermore, there is a potential overuse of reinforcement, particularly in the vertical tie stirrups, which could contribute to higher construction costs.
This Final Project proposes an optimization by eliminating the cantilevered flange of the inverted T-section in areas that do not serve as girder supports. As a result, a more effective and efficient pier head design was achieved in terms of dimensions, tendon layout, and non-prestressed reinforcement, while still being capable of resisting the applied structural loads.
The redesign process involved structural modeling using SAP2000 software to obtain internal forces and deflection data of the pier head. The optimization was conducted in accordance with the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specification 9th Edition (2020) and the Circular Letter of the Direktorat Jenderal Bina Marga No. 06/SE/Db/2021 concerning Practical Guidelines for Bridge Technical Design.
The pier head optimization resulted in a reduction of volume compared to the existing design: the concrete volume was reduced by 97.8 m³ (11.82%), and the reinforcement weight decreased by 58.95%. Additionally, the number of prestressing strands was reduced by two, although the total number of tendons remained unchanged. Despite the reduction in materials, the structure still satisfies both the Ultimate Limit State (ULS) and the Serviceability Limit State (SLS).
Compliance with the ULS is indicated by the flexural, shear, and torsional capacities exceeding the corresponding ultimate demands, or by the demand-to-capacity ratio (DCR) not exceeding 1. Compliance with the SLS is indicated by the fact that the concrete stresses in the extreme fibers do not exceed the allowable stress limits at both transfer and service stages, thus fulfilling the uncracked condition (Class U). The deflection is also within acceptable limits, with the maximum camber recorded at 5.40 mm and the service deflection at 11.83 mm.
