Commentary on Seismic Design of Viaduct Structures
By H. Ohuchi

Concrete Journal, Vol.49, No.6, Jun. 2011


Synopsis
Key issues are described on the seismic design of roadway and railway viaduct structures focusing on following topics; 1) displacement ductility as seismic capacity index, 2) multi loading effect, 3) P-δ effect, 4) eccentric axial load effect, 5) shear design of beam column joint and 6) that of footing.
Keywords:
displacement ductility, multi directional loading effect, P-δ effect, eccentric axial load effect, beam column joint, footing
