Performance-Based Seismic Design of RC Bridge Pier Taking into Account of Energy Demand

Abstract eng:
For earthquake ground motion near active fault, there is enormous energy and displacement demand to structures. It is urgent to improve the existing seismic code and develop a new seismic design method which could consider simultaneously these two factors through performance-based design process. Combining the merits of response spectrum method and displacement-based method, inelastic displacement spectrum with expected performance target compatible with UBC97 seismic design code was deduced by the
