Seismic Design of Concrete-Filled Circular Steel Bridge Piers
The adequacy of the existing design provisions for concrete-filled steel pipes subjected to axial forces and flexure is reviewed by comparing the strengths predicted by the CAN/CSA-S16.1-M94, AISC LRFD 1994, and the Eurocode 4 1994 codes and standards against experimental data from a number of investigators. New proposed design equations are then developed, in a format compatible with North Ame...
متن کاملEffect of column-foundation connection stiffness on seismic performance of rocking steel braced frame
Residual drifts after severe earthquakes interrupt serviceability of buildings. Retrofitting of such buildings is in many cases very difficult and consumes lots of time and money. Recently, there are some attempts to develop the seismic design procedures to not only satisfy life safety criteria but also lead to more economical buildings. One of these modern methods of improving seismic performa...
متن کاملPERFORMANCE-BASED SEISMIC DESIGN OPTIMIZATION FOR MULI-COLUMN RC BRIDGE PIERS, CONSIDERING QUASI-ISOLATION
In this paper an optimization framework is presented for automated performance-based seismic design of bridges consisting of multi-column RC pier substructures. The beneficial effects of fusing components on seismic performance of the quasi-isolated system is duly addressed in analysis and design. The proposed method is based on a two-step structural analysis consisting of a linear modal dynami...
متن کاملSeismic Retrofit of Bridge Steel Truss Piers Using a Controlled Rocking Approach
This paper investigates a seismic retrofit technique that allows bridge steel truss piers to uplift and rock on their foundation. Displacement-based passive energy dissipation devices buckling-restrained braces, or BRBs are implemented at the uplifting location to control the rocking response while providing additional energy dissipation. The hysteretic behavior of the controlled rocking system...
متن کاملBi-directional Seismic Analysis and Design of Bridge Steel Truss Piers Allowing a Controlled Rocking Response
4-legged bridge steel truss piers provide support for gravity, transverse, and longitudinal lateral loads of bridges. Allowing a controlled rocking response for seismic resistance of 4-legged truss piers requires the development of design equations considering ground motions in two horizontal directions and vertical excitation. First, the static kinematic and hysteretic bi-directional behavior ...
