Abstract:

To explore the impact of the abutment back wall on the seismic fragility of each continuous girder bridge component, two nonlinear models of the four-span continuous girder bridge with or without back wall were built separately using OpenSees software. Models were analyzed by 100 seismic waves selected from PEER(Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center) database, based on class II site. Then the fragility curves of each component were established by cloud method. The results show that the abutment back wall has significant effect on the seismic fragility of continuous girder bridge. The effect of the abutment back wall on seismic responses of each component increases with the increase of the damage degree. In the state of complete damage, the influence degree reaches maximum, and the mean deviation of pier fragility reaches 85.5%. Considering the abutment back wall have the greatest influence on the seismic response of piers. Therefore, it is suggested that the abutment back wall should be considered when analyzing the seismic performance of continuous bridge structures.

Key words: bridge engineering, continuous girder bridge, abutment backwall, seismic fragility, cloud method, median fragilities
