Multi-hazard resistant steel plate shear wall bridge pier concept
Bridges are built in a variety of locations, many of which are susceptible to multiple extreme hazards (earthquakes, vehicle collisions, tsunamis or storm surges, and blasts are considered in this research since they are present as a minimum for some locations). This underscores the need to develop an innovative design concept for bridges from a multi-hazard perspective in which all hazards and...
متن کاملSeismic Retrofit of Bridge Steel Truss Pier Anchorage Connections
In assessments of the seismic adequacy of existing steel bridges, the steel-to-concrete anchorage connections typically found at the base of steel truss piers can be potentially vulnerable, having little to no ductility and inadequate strength to resist seismic demands. Many other non-ductile failure locations may also exist along the seismic load path. Failure would result in unacceptable perf...
متن کاملAnalysis of a High-pier Railway Bridge under Spatial Stochastic Stationary and Non-stationary Earthquake Excitations
Original scientific paper The objectives of this paper are to perform a comparative analysis of the large-scale system of a high-pier railway bridge subjected to stationary and nonstationary spatially varying earthquake excitations using the pseudo-excitation method (PEM), and to estimate whether or not the non-stationary stochastic analysis of the high-pier railway bridges under tri-directiona...
متن کاملSeismic Retrofit of Bridge Steel Truss Pier Anchorage Connections (2002-2003)
In assessments of the seismic adequacy of existing steel bridges, the anchorage of steel truss piers to their foundations often has insufficient strength to resist seismic demands. Many other non-ductile failure locations may also exist along the seismic load path that cannot provide adequate seismic performance. Although strengthening is an option, this approach may only transfer damage to ano...
متن کاملSeismic Testing of a Bridge Steel Truss Pier Designed for Controlled Rocking
Shake table testing of a 1/5 scale model of a slender bridge steel truss pier that uses a controlled rocking approach as a means of seismic protection was conducted. The controlled rocking approach allows the pier to uplift from its base while passive energy dissipation devices steel yielding devices or fluid viscous dampers are implemented across the uplifting location to control the response....
