Description

RC bridge multi-span continuous concrete girder bridge Central and South Eastern United States Seismic Hazard: a suite of synthetic ground motion (100 ground motions). Exposure: four bridges types. Multi-span simply supported steel girder bridge. Multi-span continuous steel girder bridge. Multi-span simply supported pre-stressed concrete girder bridge. Multi-span continuous pre-stressed concrete girder bridge.$Paragraph$The simulated ground motion records take into account the uncertainties in the seismic source, path attenuation and local soil conditions.$Paragraph$Vulnerability curves were produced for each component and then combined to provide fragility curves for the complete bridge structure Fragility parameters: Medians=[0.273, 1.477, 2.365, 4.13], Standard deviations=[0.149, 0.769, 1.465, 2.665] Syner-G taxonomy: MM1=C MM2=RC TD1=Gb TD2=Ss DC=Is DSS=Co PDC=Is TC1=McP NP=4 TS1=Cy TS2= HP= Sp=Ms SC=3 TCa=IsI BC=R LS= Taxonomy link: https://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/bitstream/JRC80560/lbna25883enn.pdf
