Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridges are essential to the delivery of emergency services and relief supplies during an earthquake, but they also represent the portion of the transportation infrastructure most susceptible to seismic induced damage. The assessment of these existing bridges is difficult due to uncertainties regarding the influence of the foundation and the surrounding soil on the seismic response of the bridge. Currently there exists little guidance as to which of the many analytical tools should be used when accounting for this effect. Additionally, there is a lack of experimental work investigating the interactions between the bridge structure, foundation, and surrounding soil at the system level. This lack of validation established the need for a systematic determination of the in-service system response of typical New Zealand bridges with realistic boundary conditions and to establish if the aggregations of existing bridge component models are capable of capturing this response. The characteristics of the existing New Zealand bridge stock were categorised based upon likely seismic performance into a series of bridge typologies. This categorisation determined that the majority of the New Zealand bridge stock consisted of short cast in situ reinforced concrete or precast concrete bridges built prior to the mid-1970's. From the typologies developed during categorisation test bridges were selected for field testing. Forced vibration testing and system identification were used to investigate the in situ dynamic response of three bridge components and two in-service bridges, and modal properties of these test structures were determined. Field testing results allowed the contribution of structural and foundation subcomponents to the dynamic behaviour of the bridge to be ascertained through consistent observed behaviour at multiple bridge sites. Abutments were found to contribute significant stiffness in both the longitudinal and transverse axes of the bridge. Computational models of the test bridges were developed using existing modelling techniques to represent the structure, foundation, and surrounding soil by comparing the predicted response of the model to the bridge response identified from field testing. The influence of neglecting the contribution of various subcomponents, and alterations of element material properties on the overall bridge response was investigated. The modelling study determined that the dynamic bridge response was dominated by the structural layout and stiffness, and confirmed field testing observations that the passive resistance of the abutment backfill and buried friction slab contributed significantly to the stiffness in the longitudinal and transverse directions respectively. The results of the modelling study were used to develop a series of guidelines for the development of integrated structure-foundation models of bridges at the initial conditions of seismic loading.

Book Synopsis Earthquake-Resistant Structures by : Mohiuddin Ali Khan
Download or read book Earthquake-Resistant Structures written by Mohiuddin Ali Khan and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2013-03-18 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthquake engineering is the ultimate challenge for structural engineers. Even if natural phenomena involve great uncertainties, structural engineers need to design buildings, bridges, and dams capable of resisting the destructive forces produced by them. These disasters have created a new awareness about the disaster preparedness and mitigation. Before a building, utility system, or transportation structure is built, engineers spend a great deal of time analyzing those structures to make sure they will perform reliably under seismic and other loads. The purpose of this book is to provide structural engineers with tools and information to improve current building and bridge design and construction practices and enhance their sustainability during and after seismic events. In this book, Khan explains the latest theory, design applications and Code Provisions. Earthquake-Resistant Structures features seismic design and retrofitting techniques for low and high raise buildings, single and multi-span bridges, dams and nuclear facilities. The author also compares and contrasts various seismic resistant techniques in USA, Russia, Japan, Turkey, India, China, New Zealand, and Pakistan. Written by a world renowned author and educator Seismic design and retrofitting techniques for all structures Tools improve current building and bridge designs Latest methods for building earthquake-resistant structures Combines physical and geophysical science with structural engineering

Download or read book Seismic Performance of Soil-Foundation-Structure Systems written by Nawawi Chouw and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-08-25 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seismic Performance of Soil-Foundation-Structure Systems presents invited papers presented at the international workshop (University of Auckland, New Zealand, 21-22 November 2016). This international workshop brought together outstanding work in earthquake engineering that embraces a holistic consideration of soilfoundation-structure systems. For example, the diversity of papers in this volume is represented by contributions from the fields of shallow foundation in liquefiable soil, spatially distributed lifelines, bridges, clustered structures (see photo on front cover), sea floor seismic motion, multi-axial ground excitation, deep foundations, soil-foundation-structurefluid interaction, liquefaction-induced settlement and uplift with SFSI. A fundamental knowledge gap is manifested by the isolated manner geotechnical and structural engineers work. A holistic consideration of soil-foundation-structures systems is only possible if civil engineers work collaboratively to the mutual benefit of all disciplines. Another gap occurs by the retarded application of up-to-date research findings in engineering design practices. Seismic Performance of Soil-Foundation-Structure Systems is the outcome from the recognized need to close this gap, since it has been observed that a considerable delay exists between published research findings and application of the principles revealed by the research. Seismic Performance of Soil-Foundation-Structure Systems will be helpful in developing more understanding of the complex nature of responses these systems present under strong earthquakes, and will assist engineers in closing the gaps identified above.
