Seismic Design Aids for Nonlinear Pushover Analysis of Reinforced Concrete and Steel Bridges (Advances in Earthquake Engineering)
Published 3 weeks, 5 days ago
Description
A technical manual for seismic engineering, specifically focusing on the nonlinear pushover analysis of reinforced concrete and steel bridges. It introduces the INSTRUCT computer program, providing the mathematical formulations and material libraries necessary to simulate how bridge structures deform and fail under extreme earthquake loads. The authors trace the historical evolution of American bridge design codes, highlighting the modern shift from force-based methods to more sophisticated displacement-based design. Detailed chapters and appendices explain how to calculate structural limit states, check for various column failure modes, and apply these analytical tools to real-world engineering projects. Ultimately, the book provides a comprehensive framework for practitioners and researchers to ensure bridge safety by verifying that displacement capacity exceeds seismic demand.
