Seismic Retrofitting Manual for Highway Structures. Part 2: Retaining Structures, Slopes, Tunnels,Culverts and Roadways (December 2006)

M. S. Power / K. Fishman / F. Makdisi / S. Musser / R. Richards

Part 2 includes new procedures for determining the seismic vulnerability of other important highway system structures, namely, retaining structures, slopes, tunnels, culverts and roadways. Guidance is provided on (a) screening for potential seismic vulnerabilities; (b) conducting a detailed evaluation; and (c) describing strategies for retrofit design. In addition, discussion is provided for classifying each structure by type, construction, or expected performance. This report is the first known effort to capture, in a formal and consistent manner, the important aspects of seismic performance and retrofitting intended to improve performance of highway system structural components other than bridges.
