Dynamic/Earthquake Analysis (hapter 13) B and D Regions in a ommon Bridge Structure B-region: Bernoulli's hypothesis facilitates the flexural design of reinforced concrete structures by allowing a linear strain distribution for all loading stages, including an ultimate flexural capacity. D-region (disturbed or discontinued portion), Bernoulli s hypothesis does not apply. (d) behaves almost elastically until anticipated failure load (c) requires the largest amount of plastic deformation; thus it is more likely to collapse before reaching the failure load level Figure 13.3 Non linear Finite Element comparison of three possible models of a short cantilever (MacGregor, et al. 28) 4 Goal: Min. steel content; the least and shortest ties are the best

(hapter 14) 17 large displacement effects) 18 wo types of buckling: 1.Bifurcation buckling the primary path is following the original load-displacement curve the secondary path is the alternative path from the bifurcation point when the critical load is reached. If the secondary path has a positive derivative (rises), the structure has postbuckling strength 19 2
2. Snap-through buckling. the limit point is not a bifurcation point because there is no immediate adjacent equilibrium configuration. When a limit point load is reached under increasing load, snap-through buckling occurs, as the structure assumes a new configuration.

No lateral displacement significantly increased. At about 3 times of S, the displacements increase abruptly. No lateral displacement significantly increased. When increased to 24 times of, the displacements increase abruptly. No lateral displacement significantly increased. Still remains in elastic even at 5 times of W, while the lateral displacement at the end of the girder reaches to 7 meters. At 46 times of, the vertical displacement at the end of the girder increased to over 1 meters accompanied with 42 meters of lateral displacements (Figure 14.22). At 48 times of W, the lateral displacement at the end of the girder increased to over 1 meters.
