Seismic Behavior of Long-Span Cable-Stayed Bridges

by Ahmed M. Abdel-Ghaffar, Princeton Univ, Princeton, NJ, USA,
Aly S. Nazmy, Princeton Univ, Princeton, NJ, USA,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Dynamic Response of Structures

Abstract:

Special features of the earthquake-response analysis of cable-stayed bridges, subjected to multiple-support excitation, are presented including a basis for calculation of seismic forces and deformations of such long-span, three-dimensional and flexible structures. Significant comments and recommendations for the earthquake-resistant design of such bridges are also presented.
