RISEnhancing Shear Strength of Capbeam–Column Joints in Existing Multicolumn Bent Bridges Using an Innovative Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Nonintegrated multicolumn bents are the common type of substructure in existing bridges. Among all possible seismic defects in their behavior, capbeam–column joint behavior has not properly been acknowledged so far. Although ...
The Effect of In-Span Hinges and Span Numbers on the Seismic Vulnerability of Curved Box-Girder Highway Bridges Considering Material and Geometric Uncertainties
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Around 15% of seismically designed Californian box-girder bridges incorporate at least one in-span hinge. This class of bridges can be further divided into two subclasses (i.e., single-frame and multiframe subclasses) ...
