Achieving Operational Seismic Performance of RC Bridge Bents Retrofitted with Buckling-Restrained Braces
Typical reinforced concrete (RC) bridges built prior to 1970 were designed with minimum seismic consideration, leaving numerous bridges highly susceptible to damage following an earthquake. In order to improve the seismic behavior of substandard RC bridges, this study presents the seismic performanc...
