Shake Table Experimental Project on the Seismic Performance of Bridges Using E-Defense
Abstract eng: This paper introduces a large scale shake table experimental program on bridge structures using E-Defense. The program was formulated as one of the US-Japan cooperative research programs based on NEES and E-Defense collaboration. Component model (C1 model) and system model (C2 model) are included in the program. Objectives of C1 model is to clarify the failure mechanism of reinforced concrete bridge piers using as large models as possible to eliminate barriers of scale and loading rate effect. C2 model is to study the complex system behavior of bridges to failure. Background, objectives, proposed models and tests cases are presented.
