Download or read book Earthquake-Resistant Design with Rubber written by James M. Kelly and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Base isolation technology offers a cost-effective and reliable strategy for mitigating seismic damage to structures. The effectiveness of this new technology has been demonstrated not only in laboratory research, but also in the actual response of base-isolated buildings during earthquakes. Increasingly, new and existing buildings in earthquake-prone regions throughout the world are making use of this innovative strategy. In this expanded and updated edition, the design methods and guidelines associated with seismic isolation are detailed. The main focus of the book is on isolation systems that use a damped natural rubber. Topics covered include coupled lateral-torsional response, the behavior of multilayer bearings under compression and bending, and the buckling behavior of elastomeric bearings. Also featured is a section covering the recent changes in building code requirements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Existing short and medium span bridges in seismic areas may be retrofitted using base-isolation bearing pads. The selection of pad stiffness characteristics and the decision on the location of the bearings are expected to have a significant effect on the magnitude and distribution of forces on bridge components during earthquakes. The objective of the study reported in this paper, is to investigate the effect of the various design parameters of the isolation system on the bridge response and the design forces on the piers and abutments. These design parameters include the pier stiffness, the elastic and post-elastic stiffness and the location of the bearing pads. A non-linear dynamic model of the bridge is developed to represent the behaviour of the base-isolated bridge system. In the development of model, the bridge deck is assumed to be rigid in its own plane. The model uses a time-dependent tangent stiffness matrix that is updated at the end of each time step. The data for ground motion is taken from actual strong motion earthquake records, and the ground motion is assumed to act in either the longitudinal or transverse directions of the bridge. The system is solved using the Newmark-Beta step by step numerical integration approach. It is concluded that the seismic response of the bridge is sensitive to small variations in the stiffness of flexible piers. The design forces can be shifted from the pier to the abutments by the proper selection of the location of the isolation bearing pads. The response and design forces of the bridge are found to be very sensitive to the stiffness characteristics of the bearing. Overestimation of the bearing stiffness can lead to serious underestimation of the design forces on the structural components of the bridge.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jan. 17, 1995, Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake was one of the worst disasters to hit Japan in almost half a century. It has been compared in its impact to the great Kanto (Tokyo) Earthquake of 1923. The Kobe-Osaka region held many similarities in its geologic and tectonic setting to many areas along the West Coast, and possibly, other areas of the U.S. A geotechnical reconnaissance to identify the relevant problems and issues was organized. This report provides a timely, first-hand overview of the type and extent of the geotechnical aspects of the damage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study is made of the seismic behaviour of base-isolated highway briges with the objective of developing design procedures in the form of code-type approach. The recommendations of current codes concerning the use of energy dissipation mechanisms for the seismic design of bridges are reviewed. A model representing the bridge deck, piers, and the base-isolation system is used to evaluate the response of the bridge to a selected earthquake time history record and to evaluate the effects of various design parameters on the dynamic response. The results of this analysis are used in the development of design guidelines for the isolated bridge system. It was found that base isolation affects the design forces on piers and abutments as well as the deck displacements. An optimum design should provide a reasonable balance between the shear forces on supports and tolerable displacements. Two design procedures are proposed based on the time history and inelastic response spectra approaches. Simplified charts are presented which aid in the seismic design of new bridges as well as in the upgrading of existing ones.
