The economical efficiency of friction pendulum bearings (FPB) for seismic retrofitting of typical Illinois bridges is studied. A typical bridge was carefully selected by Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) for the purpose of this study. The seismic analysis of the bridge revealed that the bearings, and substructures of the bridge are vulnerable and need to be retrofitted. A conventional retrofitting strategy is developed for the bridge and the cost of retrofit is estimated. Next, the bridge is further studied to develop appropriate techniques for upgrading its seismic capacity using FPB and the seismic analysis is repeated. It is observed that the FPB effectively mitigated the seismic forces and eliminated the need for retrofitting of the substructures of the bridge.

Seismic retrofitting of highway bridges in Illinois using friction pendulum seismic isolation bearings and modeling procedures
Dicleli, Murat (Elsevier BV, 2003-07-01)
In this paper, the economical and structural efficiency of friction pendulum bearings (FPB) for retrofitting typical seismically vulnerable bridges in the State of Illinois is studied. For this purpose, a bridge was carefully selected by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) to represent typical seismically vulnerable bridges commonly used in the State of Illinois. A comprehensive structural model of the bridge was first constructed for seismic analysis. An iterative multi-mode response spectrum ...
Experimental Determination of Resistance Characteristics of Support Details Used in Prestressed Concrete Bridge Girders
Baran, Eray; French, Catherine; Schultz, Arturo (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2009-09-01)
Static load tests were performed on support details used at the ends of prestressed concrete pedestrian bridge girders to determine the resistance characteristics of girder supports in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the girders. The specimens tested represent support details that have also been widely used in prestressed concrete highway bridges in Minnesota and in other states. Two specimens, one representing the free-end detail and one representing the restrained-end detail were s...
Efficiency of Seismic Isolation for Seismic Retrofitting of Heavy Substructured Bridges
Dicleli, Murat; Constantinou, Michael C. (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2005-07-01)
In this paper, the efficiency of seismic isolation for seismic retrofitting of bridges with light superstructures and heavy substructures in the state of Illinois is studied. For this purpose, a representative bridge was selected by Illinois Department of Transportation. A detailed structural model of the bridge capable of simulating the nonlinear behavior of its components and soil-bridge interaction effects was first constructed. Iterative multimode response spectrum analysis (IMMRSA) of the bridge were c...
Seismic retrofitting of bridges by response modification techniques based on altering bearing fixities
Dicleli, Murat (Informa UK Limited, 2005-07-01)
Feasibility of a proposed seismic retrofitting technique for typical bridges in the Central US has been studied. The retrofitting technique is based on modifying the fixity conditions of the bearings for response modification purposes to eliminate the need for costly retrofitting of substructures. For this purpose, a seismically vulnerable bridge, typical of those in the Central US was selected. Detailed seismic analyses of the bridge were then conducted. It was found that its bearings, wing-walls and pier ...
Seismic Retrofitting of Typical Illinois Bridges by Response Modification
Dicleli, Murat (null; 2004-01-01)
The impact of seismic retrofitting of typical Illinois bridges, via response modification using friction pendulum bearings (FPB), on the state economy is studied. For this purpose, two typical bridges with distinct characteristics were selected by Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). The seismic analyses of the bridges revealed that the bearings, wingwalls and substructures are vulnerable and need to be retrofitted. Conventional retrofitting strategies are developed for the bridges and the retrofit...
