摘要

Recent seismic events all over the world have shown that bridge structures are highly sensitive and vulnerable during earthquakes. Many existing bridges were designed without adequate consideration of seismic risk. The full or partial collapse of even one major bridge in a city or community would have devastating consequences. There has been limited research to date to evaluate the seismic vulnerability of the existing bridges in British Columbia (BC) or support decision making on seismic upgrade. There is, therefore, a need for reliable methods for assessing the seismic vulnerability of existing bridges, in particular large and irregular motorway bridges having lifeline character. This research focuses on developing performance based seismic fragility curves for typical multi span continuous concrete girder (MSCC) bridges in BC. Ground motions compatible with the seismic hazard were used as input excitations for bridge vulnerability assessment. The fragility curves thus developed will quantify the vulnerability of existing MSCC bridges and aid in proper decision making to increase the safety for humans and the serviceability of vital facilities.
