Seismic Design of Bridges for Prevention of Girder Pounding
In design of conventional bridges the gap between bridge spans is usually only a few centimetres. For such an expansion joint poundings between adjacent bridge girders during strong earthquake shaking are usually unavoidable. Pounding often causes damages to girders. In extreme situations it may pu...
