Comprehensive Specification for the Seismic Design of Bridges
Recent damaging earthquakes in the United States and abroad have demonstrated the earthquake vulnerability of highway bridges that were designed to existing seismic codes. To address this inadequate performance, extensive research programs have been carried out. These programs have advanced the state of the art to the point where a new specification for seismic design is necessary to take advantage of new insight into ground motion and geotechnical effects, improved performance criteria, and more advanced analytical and design methodologies. The objective of this research was to enhance safety and economy through the development of new load and resistance factor design (LRFD) specifications and commentary for the seismic design of bridges. The research considered design philosophy and performance criteria, seismic loads and site effects, analysis and modeling, and design requirements. The specifications are nationally applicable with provisions for all seismic zones and are intended to be integrated into the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications.
