Earthquakes in the United States and elsewhere have demonstrated the vulnerability of older bridges to even moderate earthquakes. Recognizing the need to upgrade the bridge inventory, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) began sponsoring research and development in seismic retrofitting in the early 1980's. A set of guidelines was published in 1983 and updated by NCEER with a synthesis of the literature in 1995 (Seismic retrofitting Manual for Highway Bridges FHWA-RD-94-052 May 1995). A short course was held in 1998. The course covered preliminary screening, detailed evaluation, and retrofit measures for highway bridges. In December 2006 the new FHWA retrofit manual (Seismic Retrofitting Manual for Highway Structures: Part 1-Bridges FHWA-HRT-06-032 January 2006) was distributed to all the states. The manual has doubled in length and incorporates over a decade of research by MCEER and the practical experience of Caltrans in retrofitting thousands of bridges. Part 1 is the text for this course and the notebook is intended to update and facilitate the manual's use. The manual recommends performance criteria according to bridge importance and anticipated service life, and seismic hazard level. Minimum recommendations are made for screening, evaluation, and retrofitting according to an assigned Seismic Retrofit Category. Various retrofit strategies are described and a range of related retrofit measures explained, including restrainers, seat extensions, column jackets, footing overlays, and soil remediation. The length of the course is one day. However, references to and materials from prior training developed by the MCEER team and authors and instructors are provided. Topics to be discussed include: Seismic and Geotechnical Hazards; Seismic Retrofit Procedures; Geotechnical Modeling; Seismic Evaluation Methods; Retrofit Details; Geotechnical Retrofit Strategies; methods of Analysis; Retrofit Applications; Design Examples. The course is intended for engineers from Departments of Transportation and consultants who have an interest in seismic retrofitting. Attendees are expected to learn about the behavior of bridges in earthquakes and methods for improving this performance. Emphasis will be given to older bridges typical of the central and eastern US. The pilot course is offered by Bridge technology to provide engineers with practical knowledge about current and emerging technologies and design procedures that will enhance their career skills, while improving the safety of our built environment from earthquakes and other hazards.
