1 Seismic Design of Bridges Lucero E. Mesa, P.E. Slide 2 2 AASHTO - Division IA Draft Specifications, 1996 SCDOT 2001 Seismic Design Specifications Comparison Between LRFD & SCDOT Specs. SCDOT Seismic Hazard Maps Training and Implementation Conclusions SCDOT Seismic Design Of Bridges Overview Slide 3 3 USGS 1988 Seismic Hazard Maps Force based design Soil Classification I-IV No explicit Performance Criteria Classification based only on acceleration coefficient AASHTO Div IA Slide 4 4 CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA August 31, 1886 (Intensity IX-X) Slide 5 5 Earthquake of August 31, 1886 Charleston, South Carolina Magnitude=7.3M, Intensity = X Slide 6 6 Slide 7 7 1996 USGS Seismic Hazard Maps Difference in spectral acceleration between South Carolina and California Normal Bridges : 2/3 of the 2% in 50 yr. Event Essential Bridges: Two -Level Analysis Draft Specifications Slide 8 8 Force based specifications N (seat width) Soil classification: I IV Draft Specifications Version of 1999 Draft Specifications Slide 9 9 Maybank Bridge over the Stono River Carolina Bays Parkway Broad and Chechessee River Bridges New Cooper River Bridge Bobby Jones Expressway Site Specific Studies Slide 10 10 SC-38 over I-95 - Dillon County Maybank Highway Bridge over the Stono River - Charleston County SEISMIC DESIGN TRIAL EXAMPLES Slide 11 11 SC-38 over I-95 Description of Project Conventional bridge structure Two 106.5 ft. spans with a composite reinforced concrete deck, supported by 13 steel plate girders and integral abutments The abutments and the interior bents rest on deep foundations Slide 12 12 Original Seismic Design SCDOT version of Div-IA AASHTO (Draft) 2/3 of 2% in 50 yr 1996 USGS maps used PGA of 0.15g, low potential for liquefaction Response Spectrum Analysis Trial Design Example Proposed LRFD Seismic Guidelines MCE 3% PE in 75 yr. Expected Earthquake 50% PE in 75 yr. 2000 USGS maps PGA of 0.33g, at MCE, further evaluation for liquefaction is needed. Response Spectrum Analysis SC-38 over I-95 Slide 13 13 Maybank Highway Bridge over the Stono River Slide 14 14 Slide 15 15 118 spans 1-62 flat slab deck supported by PCP 63-104 /33 -meter girder spans and 2 columns per bent supported by shafts. The main span over the river channel consists of a 3 span steel girder frame w/ 70 meter center span. 105-118 flat slab deck supported by PCP Maybank Highway over Stono River Description of project Slide 16 16 Original Seismic Design SCDOT version of AASHTO Div. I-A (Draft) Site Specific Seismic Hazard Bridge classified as essential Project specific seismic performance criteria Two level Analysis: FEE 10% in 50 yr. event SEE - 2% in 50 yr. event Trial Design Example Proposed LRFD Guidelines - 2002 Two Level Analysis: Expected Earthquake - 50% in 75 yr. MCE 3% in 75 yr. Maybank Highway over Stono River Slide 17 17 Slide 18 18 Original Seismic Design Soil Classification: Type II Trial Design Example Stiff Marl classified as Site Class D Maybank Highway over Stono River Slide 19 19 The SCDOT 's new specifications adopted the NCHRP soil site classification and the Design Spectra described on LRFD 3.4.1 If this structure were designed using the new SCDOT Seismic Design Specifications, October 2001, the demand forces would be closer if not the same to those found using the Proposed LRFD Guideline - 2002. Slide 20 20 Cooper River Bridge Charleston Co. Seismic Design Criteria- Seismic Panel Synthetic TH PGA - 0.65g Sa 1.85 at T=0.2 sec Sa 0.65 at T=1 sec Liquefaction Slide 21 21 Slide 22 22 Cooper River Bridge 2500 Yr - SEE for Main Piers Slide 23 23 New Specifications South Carolina Seismic Hazard Maps Need for: Slide 24 24 Slide 25 25 The new SCDOT specifications establish design and construction provisions for bridges in South Carolina to minimize their susceptibility to damage from large earthquakes. SCDOT Seismic Design Specifications October 2001 Slide 26 26 PURPOSE & PHILOSOPHY (1.1) SCDOT Seismic Design Specifications replace AASHTO Division I-A SCDOT Draft Principles used for the development Small to moderate earthquakes, FEE, resisted within the essentially elastic range. State-of-Practice ground motion intensities are used. Large earthquakes, SEE, should not cause collapse. Four Seismic Performance Categories (SPC) are defined to cover the variation in seismic hazard of very small to high within the State of South Carolina. Slide 27 27 New Design Level Earthquakes New Performance Objectives New Soil Factors Displacement Based Design Expanded Design Criteria for Bridges New Concepts and Enhancements Slide 28 28 Small to Moderate Earthquakes Essentially Elastic No Significant Damage Functional Evaluation Earthquake (FEE) or 10% in 50 yr. event SCDOT Seismic Design Specifications October 2001 Slide 29 29 Large Earthquakes Life Safety No Collapse Serviceability Detectable and Accessible Damage Safety Evaluation Earthquake (SEE) or 2% in 50 yr. event SCDOT Seismic Design Specifications October 2001 Slide 30 30 New USGS Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Maps New Design Level Earthquakes New Performance Objectives A706 Reinf. Steel New Soil Factors Displacement Based Design Caltrans (SDC) new provisions included SCDOT Seismic Design Specifications Background (1.2) Slide 31 31 New Provisions meet current code objectives for large earthquakes.
