Abstrait:

The Mexican Secretary for Communications and Transports (SCT) periodically applies an evaluation procedure to define maintenance politics of highway bridges, named SIPUMEX. This is a very general method which does not consider some important parameters needed to characterize the seismic behavior in bridges. A modification of the SIPUMEX process is presented in this paper, considering the addition of new evaluation parameters, based on the results of surveys made with Mexican experts in this theme, or by eliminating some parameters used in the original methodology that do not provide information about the bridges seismic vulnerability. The proposed procedure was applied to a database of 79 highway bridges located next to the Mexican Pacific Coast. The obtained results were compared with the ones calculated with a procedure available in the literature.
