Following the 1964 Niigata earthquake many bridges, including the Showa Bridge, over the Shinano river collapsed. The newly-constructed Showa Bridge demonstrated one of t [...]

A pile becomes laterally unsupported when the soil liquefies during strong earthquakes. This makes it vulnerable to buckling instability. Buckling is a non-ductile method [...]
