While methodologies exist which allow to rapidly identify the seismically deficient bridges and rank them in terms of their respective vulnerability, it remains that the bridge vulnerability aspect of these methodologies is crude and generally limited to simple recognition of undesirable structural features known to have performed inadequately in past earthquakes. Thus, bridges sharing such features would also share the same rating, independently of variations in geometry and other structural properties. As one step to improve on this situation, a methodology is proposed to perform rapid, yet quantitative, seismic vulnerability assessments. It was developed and applied for a special class of bridges, namely single-span and multi-span slab-on-girder highway steel bridges. In the latter case, only steel columns were considered, as these have received little attention in past research.

Comparison of ASCE/SEI standard (2010) and modal pushover based ground motion scaling procedures for pre-tensioned concrete bridges
Özgenoğlu, Müge; Arıcı, Yalın; Department of Civil Engineering (2015)
The seismic design and evaluation of large bridges is a demanding task owing to the significant size and the structural characteristics of these systems. Although elastic analysis methods are regarded as sufficient for common, uncritical bridges; complex analysis methods such as non-linear time history analysis (NTHA) are often required for non-standard and/or important bridges. The selection of the ground motions that will be used in non-linear time history analysis is a crucial task in this regard as the ...
Quantitative approach to rapid seismic evaluation of slab-on-girder steel highway bridges
Dicleli, Murat (1996-01-01)
A quantitative approach follows for developing a methodology for the rapid seismic evaluation and ranking of slab-on-girder steel highway bridges. In the development of this methodology, analytical expressions are introduced to calculate the seismically induced forces and displacements in bridge components, first assuming that damage to bearings is not acceptable and then removing this constraint. In the latter case, the superstructure is assumed to become unrestrained and slide on its supports. The seismic...
Comparative assessment of the seismic performance of integral and conventional bridges with respect to the differences at the abutments
Erhan, Semih; Dicleli, Murat (2015-02-01)
In this study, the seismic performance of integral and conventional bridges is compared particularly considering the differences at their abutments. For this purpose, three existing integral bridges with one, two and three spans are selected and then designed as conventional jointed bridges. The structural models of the integral and conventional bridges are then built including nonlinear structural and dynamic soil-bridge interaction effects. Next, nonlinear time history analyses of the bridge models are co...
Investigation of seismic isolation efficiency for building structures
Özdemir, Seda; Yakut, Ahmet; Ay, Bekir Özer; Department of Earthquake Studies (2016)
The main goal of this study is to assess the efficacy of seismic isolation for building type of structures with different structural systems, namely, dual systems and moment frame systems having also different number of floors. Specific to this study, the main parameters employed for efficacy assessment will be the interstorey drift ratio and floor acceleration since both structural and non-structural damage to be occured in a system are directly related to these two parameters. To assess the variations in inter...
Comparative assessment of the efficiency of seismic isolation for seismic retrofitting of highway bridges in regions of low-to-moderate seismicity
Karalar, Memduh; Dicleli, Murat (null; 2019-07-06)
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 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 (MMRS) ana...
