Abstract
Over the last decade, Algeria has realized the highway project. It covers more than 1,200 km joining Algeria's
eastern and western borders in the northern part of the country. This region is characterized by a high level of seismic activity. In total, this project contains more than 530 bridges, knowing that the design of these bridges was carried out with a simplified method namely the coefficient method, and does not comply with the requirements of the new Algerian seismic code for bridges RPOA-2008. For this reason, the development of fragility curves for these structures is necessary. This paper aims to develop
analytical fragility curves for component and system fragility curves for post-tensioned girder highway bridges that represent the most common configuration in Algeria taking into account different spectral intensity measurements and the soil class based on the shear wave velocity specified in the Algerian bridge design code. Incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) is performed longitudinally on the bridge. Sixty seismic ground motions are scaled and employed for the time history nonlinear analysis. A variety of intensity measurements are chosen and the optimal intensity measurement with the lowest dispersion is proposed.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
