A seismic vulnerability analysis of a multi-span simply supported bridge is often based on the seismic response of the most critical pier. This response is influenced by [...]

The study concerns with the seismic analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) building, with particular attention to the role played by floor system. The rigid-floor assumptio [...]

Thanks to a specific fund provided by AdP-Puglia, a research study has been developed by the Department DIAC of Politecnico di Bari, drawing up a volume of “Guidelines [...]

The paper proposes a simplified procedure for the seismic vulnerability analysis of bridges with simply supported decks and single solid circular piers. The proposed meth [...]

The modern technical rules define the proper seismic evaluation on the basis of reference period (reference life), established according to importance and use of the buil [...]

The seismic response of highway viaducts with bearing-supported superstructures and characterized by structural regularity, essentially depends on the behaviour of its pi [...]
