This report presents the results of the second phase of a comprehensive analytical study on the seismic response of highway bridges in New Jersey. Most bridges in New Jersey are multi-span simply supported (MSSS) where due to impact at the joints the seismic response is highly nonlinear. Therefore, detailed seismic analysis of essential bridges should employ nonlinear computer models that consider the important behavioral characteristics. Among these are: behavior of steel bearings, impact between adjacent spans and between the end-span and the abutment, soil-structure interaction, frictional characteristics following bearing failure, plastic hinges and/or shear failure at the columns, and combined effect of horizontal and transverse ground motion excitations. In light of these, the overall objective of this phase of the study was to evaluate the nonlinear seismic response of actual bridges with emphasis on soil-structure interaction and three-dimensional effect of ground motion. Furthermore, capacity/demand ratios for various components were determined based on the Federal Highway Administration's seismic retrofitting manual for highway bridges.

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
