Development of a Seismic Design Method for Reinforced Concrete Two-Way Bridge Column Hinges
Two-way hinges are commonly used in bridge columns to eliminate moment transfer to adjoining members. In the absence of a specific method to analyze and design two-way hinges, the shear capacity of two-way hinges is determined using the shear friction method (SFM). However, under lateral forces, hinges are under a combination of axial load, shear, and moment, and the shear transfer mechanism is different from that assumed in SFM. The main objective of this study was to develop a method seismic design of two-way hinges. The study consisted of five parts: (1) development of a primary design method; (2) investigation of the shake table response of large-scale hinged models; (3) refinement of the initial design method; (4) analytical modeling including the development of a method to determine hinge shear spring properties; and (5) development of methods to address different aspects of the hinge design including an illustrative example.
