Seismic Behavior of Integral Abutment Bridges, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Maleki, Shervin (Supervisor)
Abstract
Purpose of this research is evaluation of response modification factor for integral abutment bridges in longitudinal direction in which substructure and superstructure both act as a unit system in resisting of lateral loads and no expansion joints are used in them. One of the most important challenges in design of IABs, is lack of response modification factor for their seismic design in longitudinal direction. Another challenge in these bridges, is modeling of soil-bridge structure interaction that affects not only abutment and piles’ seismic performance, but deck performance too. The other challenge is lack of adequate knowledge about their behavior and seismic performance which is of great...
