2 Overview of PBD/DBD methods for bridges DDBD procedure by Kowalsky (2002), Dwairi, Kowalsky (2006): Applicable to multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) continuous concrete bridges with flexible or rigid superstructures (target displacement profile based on modal analysis: EMS) Similar version of the method included in the Priestley et al. book (2007): Design in longitudinal direction, approximate method for higher mode effects focusing on deck forces only) Adhikari, Petrini, Calvi (2010): Long-span bridges with tall piers (approximate procedure for higher mode effects on flexural strength of hinges) Suarez-Kowalsky ( ): SSI in drilled shaft bents, skewed configurations of piers and/or abutments, conditions for applying DDBD using predefined displacement patterns, target displacements that account for P-Δ Kappos-Gkatzogias-Gidaris ( ): Modal DDBD (proper consideration of higher mode effects + additional design criteria) Bardakis, Fardis (2011): Indirect displacement-based design of bridges based on calculating inelastic rotations from elastic analysis Kappos and co-workers ( ): Deformation-based design (Def-BD) procedure focusing on buildings

5 Steps of the deformation-based procedure for bridges Step 1: Flexural design of plastic hinge zones based on operationality criteria Establishes basic level of strength for the bridge to remain operational during and after the selected level of earthquake (Τ r =40 110yrs-ordinary bridges): yielding zones (pier ends) in PIM have strength determined from an initial elastic analysis (dynamic or, if permitted, static); pier stiffness (EI ef M y /φ y ) estimated from simplified procedures (preferably the Caltrans charts)

6 Steps of the deformation-based procedure for bridges Step 1: Flexural design of plastic hinge zones based on operationality criteria Establishes basic level of strength for the bridge to remain operational during and after the selected level of earthquake (Τ r =40 110yrs-ordinary bridges): yielding zones (pier ends) in PIM have strength determined from an initial elastic analysis (dynamic or, if permitted, static); pier stiffness (EI ef M y /φ y ) estimated from simplified procedures (preferably the Caltrans charts) allowable damage expressed explicitly as rotational ductility factor (μ θ ) R/C pier design typically based on f cd, f yd, but damage verification typically based on inelastic analysis using mean values (f cm, f ym ); also, overstrength is present in some zones, due to detailing and practical requirements elastic analysis run for a fraction (ν ) of EQII: pier strength elastic analysis run for EQII: bearing deformations the goal is to reach the target μ θ in the piers and γ v in the el. bearings during the operationality earthquake (not to be much lower than it!)

9 Steps of the deformation-based procedure for bridges Step 2: Serviceability/operationality verifications Set-up of the partially inelastic model PIM for bridges: piers modelled as yielding elements (strength from Step 1, stiffness: M-φ analysis, e.g RCCOLA.net (AUTh)) all other parts of the bridge modelled as elastic members (including common bearings; but LRBs should be modelled inelastically) Selection of seismic actions Pairs of records are required for 3D analysis (or triplets, if vertical motion is influential) Recommended selection criteria: M, R (from deaggregation of hazard analysis), PGA (e.g. 0.1g), similarity of spectra, accepted variability of response Modern tools (like ISSARS, Sextos-Katsanos (2013)) select sets of e.g. 7 records based on such multi-criteria, also including the EC8 procedure Scaling procedures: EC8-Part 1/2 (based on considered earthq. components)

10 Steps of the deformation-based procedure for bridges Serviceability/operationality verifications Step 2 contnd PIM analysed for set of records ( 7) scaled to the seismic action associated with operationality requirement verifications include specific limits for pier drifts, ductility factors (μ θ ) and plastic hinge rotations (θ p ); ideally μ θ,an μ θ,ls =f(ε c, ε s ) recommended values of μ θ and/or θ p vary significantly, e.g. proposals by Eastern (DesRoches et al.) and Western (Priestley et al.) US teams ε c, ε y are good basis for estimating damage to R/C piers damage to bearings (γ b < ) should also be checked, might be critical joint widths should be such as to prevent damage to backwalls

14 Steps of the deformation-based procedure for bridges Step 4: Design for shear Less ductile failure mode V E should be calculated for higher seismic actions (T r 2500yrs) associated with collapse prevention to avoid 3 rd set of response-history analyses, V E from Step 3 could be empirically scaled; recommended γ v no need for code-type conservative capacity design, since inelastic analysis is used! Step 5: Detailing of critical members Detailing of R/C piers for: confinement, anchorages, lap splices the actual μ φ values from Step 3 can be used, implicitly associated with collapse prevention (e.g. γ ω 2.00) bearings should be verified based on stability considerations N ' cr G S r ' t r A r Constantinou et al.

27 Conclusions Operationality PL: governs the design Damage-limitation PL: not critical Collapse-prevention PL: critical (with respect to stability) for bearings deformations Very good prediction of structural response while resulting in safe design Applicable to most common concrete bridge configurations without practical limitations related to the irregularity of the structural system considered Increased adaptability: Different performance objectives accounting for the importance of the bridge can be met (inclusion in future codes) Further research is required with investigate the effectiveness of the suggested procedure for complex bridge configurations (e.g. curved in plan bridges) and /or under challenging loading conditions (e.g. asynchronous pier excitation)
