Description

Multi-Span (12) RC bridge USA Seismic hazard: 60 artificial accelerograms $Paragraph$Exposure: three schematic RC viaducts with different length, column height and geometry, number of spans and hinges $Paragraph$$Paragraph$Variability in seismic hazard and geometry of the brides are considered$Paragraph$A statistical procedure was developed for the selection of damage state limits so that the vulnerability curves for each bridge match better the empirical ones Fragility parameters: Medians=[0.409, 0.654, 1.039, 1.256], Standard deviations=[0.388, 0.61, 1.014, 1.2] Syner-G taxonomy: MM1=C MM2=RC TD1=Gb TD2=B DC= DSS= PDC= TC1=ScP NP= TS1=Ob TS2= HP=12.8 Sp=Ms SC=12 TCa= BC=R LS= Taxonomy link: https://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/bitstream/JRC80560/lbna25883enn.pdf
