THE P-DELTA AND SOIL-STRUCTURE INTERACTION EFFECT ON BRIDGE PIERS

The purpose of this study is to investigate the P-Delta effect on bridge piers with consideration of soil-structure interaction effect. The traditional P-Delta effect was calculated assuming the base of the structure is fully fixed. However, all structures in real life are supported by soil, and so...

The traditional P-Delta effect was calculated assuming the base of the structure is fully fixed. However, all structures in real life are supported by soil, and soil is deformable.
