Comparison of Wind Load on Standard Steel Truss Bridge Based on Indonesian Bridge Loading Codes

The truss bridge is a type of bridge that is widely used in Indonesia because of its practicality and can be constructed in short period of time. The relatively light weight of the truss bridge structure also facilitates the transportation of superstructure materials to bridge locations located in remote areas. The dimensions of the large truss bridge and the relatively light weight cause the figure bridge to be vulnerable to wind loads. Meanwhile, the bridge loading regulations including wind load is continuing to change. Previous design code BMS 1992 and SNI T 02 2005 has been superseded with SNI 1725 2016. One of the main changes to the loading regulations is related to the magnitude and how wind loads are calculated and applied to the bridge structure. This study will compare the magnitude of the wind load in the previous loading regulations in Indonesia with the latest regulations and also with wind loading according to AASHTO on steel truss bridges. A 60-class standard steel truss bridge from the Ministry of Public Works which is used for Case Study. The results showed that there was a significant increase in wind loading by applying SNI 1725 2016 loading regulations
