Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This research project is the second part of a research program carried out by Itagawa (2005) who studied the seismic response of a half-scale model of an existing Montreal bridge built in the 1960's. This project studies the seismic behaviour of the retrofit carried out on the frame structure studied in the first part of the research program. The retrofit was made following the requirements of the current Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CHBDC). The philosophy of the CHBDC is to provide flexural yielding in the ductile elements so that brittle failure modes such as shear are prevented. This capacity-design approach resulted in a ductile response and significant energy dissipation of the retrofitted structure." --

This book was released on 2017 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Typical reinforced concrete (RC) bridges built prior to 1970 were designed with minimum seismic consideration, leaving numerous bridges highly susceptible to damage following an earthquake. In order to improve the seismic behavior of substandard RC bridges, this study presents the seismic performance of reinforced concrete bridge bents retrofitted and repaired using Buckling-Restrained Braces (BRBs) while considering subduction zone earthquake demands. In order to reflect displacement demands from subduction ground motions, research studies were conducted to develop quasi-static loading protocols and then investigate their effect on structural bridge damage. Results suggested that subduction loading protocols may reduce the displacement ductility capacity of RC bridge columns and change their failure mode. The cyclic performance of reinforced concrete bridge bents retrofitted and repaired using BRBs was experimentally evaluated using large-scale specimens and the developed loading histories. Three BRB specimens were evaluated with the aim of assessing the influence of these components on the overall performance of the retrofitted and repaired bents. Additionally, subassemblage tests were conducted in an effort to study the response of these elements and to allow for refined nonlinear characterization in the analysis of the retrofitted and repaired systems. The results of the large-scale experiments and analytical studies successfully demonstrated the effectiveness of utilizing buckling-restrained braces for achieving high displacement ductility of the retrofitted and repaired structures, while also controlling the damage of the existing vulnerable reinforced concrete bent up to an operational performance level.

Book Synopsis Seismic Behavior and Retrofit of Older Reinforced Concrete Bridge T-joints by : Laura N. Lowes
Download or read book Seismic Behavior and Retrofit of Older Reinforced Concrete Bridge T-joints written by Laura N. Lowes and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of experimental tests investigating the seismic response of reinforced concrete beam-column T-joints was recently completed at the University of California, Berkeley. The evaluated connection was representative of an interior beam- column joint from a multi-column bridge frame built in the late 1950's. Three one-third scale models, representing the as-built connection and two retrofit connections, were tested. The results of this research project are an improved understanding of the seismic behavior of lightly reinforced bridge T-joints as well as verification of a design procedure for retrofitting this type of connection.

Task Group: Seismic design and assessment procedures for bridges and published by FIB - Féd. Int. du Béton. This book was released on 2007 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridge structures can give the impression that they are rather simple structural systems, whose seismic responses can be easily predicted. On the contrary, however, many bridges did not perform well in recent earthquakes, showing a need for increased research to understand various potential problems and collapse mechanisms. Indeed, progress has been made lately in design and assessment procedures around the world, and consequently many practices have changed. In this context, the objective of fib Bulletin 39 is to present, discuss and critically compare structural solutions for bridge seismic design and retrofit that have been developed and are now used all over the world, ten years after the publication of the last comprehensive manual on the subject. It is the result of the work of an international team of experts that collaborated intensively for over three years. The first four chapters of the Bulletin present a regional review of design choices, compare and discuss international design practices, and indicate their relative merits and potential problems. Current developments are treated in the next three chapters, with particular emphasis on design for enhanced damage control, for spatial variation of ground motion and for fault crossing. The last part presents a summary of current issues related to existing bridges. Extensive technical developments have been taking place in the last two decades with the goal of making bridges an important transportation infrastructure with limited damage during earthquakes. Realising this goal depends on regional seismicity, transportation systems, seismic performance goals, local cultures, and a wide range of design and construction practices, which are presented and discussed in this Bulletin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this report, seismic design approaches for reinforced concrete bridges are reviewed and uncertainties in seismic design and evaluation are discussed. The modeling of bridge components and systems is discussed, and analytical studies of the response series of simple bridges are made. The relative utility of several design approaches and stiffness assumptions for controlling seismic demands is assessed. Modeling of column and wall pier flexural and shear strengths is examined in detail, and available models for the inelastic shear strength of columns are compared with test data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the seismic design and performance of two concrete multi-column bents. The first unit contained a precast fully prestressed cap beam while the second unit was designed with a reinforcement concrete cap beam. A mix of conventional and headed reinforcement and mechanical couplers were used in detailing the cap beam of the second unit. Tests were performed with the objective of examining the most efficient cap beam/column details, which were established in previous joint tests, under the maximum feasible shear demand. Tests results showed that both units produced a satisfactory response when subjected to simulated seismic loading.
