RESPONSE OF ORDINARY HIGHWAY BRIDGES TO COMBINED HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL GROUND MOTIONS (2008)

The effects of near-fault vertical accelerations on the overall response of ordinary highway bridges are investigated. Nonlinear simulation models with varying configurations of an existing bridge in California are considered in the analytical study. A comprehensive set of ground motions with horizontal PGA in excess of 0.5g were selected for the analytical study.
