This document provides input data and calculations to check the flexural strength of a concrete deck according to AASHTO LRFD 2007 standards. Key inputs include an effective span length of 17.5m, deck and asphalt thicknesses of 20cm and 8cm respectively, and a girder spacing of 80cm. Calculations determine the dead load, live load, and factored bending moments, which are then compared to the calculated flexural strength to check that the deck is adequate. The flexural strength calculation considers factors like reinforcement area, strength, and depth. The check shows the flexural strength exceeds the factored bending moment, indicating the deck design is sufficient.
