A Comparative Study on Displacement-Based Seismic Design Method of Bridge Structures

Most of seismic designs of major structures up to now have been performed by the traditional 'force-based design' approaches. However, they are not so efficient to evaluate the structural deformations by potential nonlinear behaviors which are directly related with the damages or performance levels during earthquakes. Lately, based on this situation, various kinds of new seismic design approaches based on the deformation, which is called 'displacement-based design' procedures, have been proposed. In this paper, most of detail techniques and procedures of the new design methods in the literature are comparatively reviewed and evaluated first, followed by a series of design examples of typical bridge structures. Comparing the results with those of the existing force-based design, the improved levels of performance and economy of the displacement-based seismic design have been validated.
