Abstract
When the deck slab is curved there is problem stability and torsion is of paramount importance. And first designing of curved deck was done then the physical model was casted .The suitable support frame arrangement was made to keep specimens stable. Loading taken was SCALED IRC CLASS AA TRACKED VEHICLE LOADING and Uniformly Distributed Loading. The specimen was tested for deflections in laboratory, and a similarity was tried to make between crack pattern and values obtained of Maximum Stress. Then the results are compared with Finite Element Computer Programmed of deflection. And Longitudinal Bending Moment and torsion moments were also compared with A.A.Witecki method of calculating moments.
