| Abstract: |
This paper shows the results of nonlinear analyses, static and dynamic, conducted on a vehicular bridge located in Mexico City. The main characteristics of the developed numerical model and the results of the analysis in terms of capacity curves, global and by element, are presented. Two cases were studied. The first one considers that the seismic restrainers, located at the bridge abutments, can effectively limit the lateral movements; while the other case considers poor lateral restriction. The results show that the first case provides an adequate safety factor for the bridge, while the second case resulted in a marginal safety factor. |
