A set of fragility curves for the bridges commonly found in the Central and Southeastern
United States (CSUS) is presented. Using the results of an inventory analysis of the typical …

Bridge fragility curves, which express the probability of a bridge reaching a certain damage
state for a given ground motion parameter, play an important role in the overall seismic risk …

Historical seismic events such as the San Fernando earthquake of 1971 and the Loma
Prieta earthquake of 1989 did much to highlight the vulnerabilities in many existing highway …

Seismic fragility curves for classes of highway bridges are essential for risk assessment of
highway transportation networks exposed to seismic hazards. This study develops seismic …

Fragility curves for retrofitted bridges indicate the influence of various retrofit measures on
the probability of achieving specified levels of damage. This paper presents an analytical …

Quantitative and qualitative assessment of the seismic risk to highway bridges is crucial in
pre-earthquake planning, and post-earthquake response of transportation systems. Such …

Fragility analyses is a powerful tool for the seismic risk assessment of highway bridges.
Multispan continuous concrete box-girder bridges account for the bulk of the California …

This paper presents a methodology to develop seismic fragility curves for deteriorating
highway bridges by uniquely accounting for realistic pitting corrosion deterioration and time …

This paper presents the results of an analytical seismic fragility analysis of a typical steel
highway bridge in New York State. The structural type and topological layout of this …
