| Research Abstract |
The hysteretic behavior of pier base-to-footing connections is examined by carrying out cyclic loading tests on pier base models. Based on this result, hysteretic models for pier base, referred to as "semi-empirical model" and "simplified composite model", are proposed. The semi-empirical model consists of an analytically obtained skeleton curve and experimentally determined hysteresis loops. These hysteretic models are implemented in nonlinear dynamic analysis for steel piers. The validity of the proposed hysteretic pier base models is confirmed by the fact that the nonlinear dynamic analysis with the pier base models can simulate the actual damage patterns of piers and anchor bolts observed in the Kobe earthquake. By using the semi-empirical pier base model, we analytically investigate the effect of pier base restraint on the overall ultimate behavior of steel bridge piers under severe earthquake motions. As a result, it is observed that the strong pier base restraint increases the damage to steel piers, whilst week restraint decreases the damage to piers but increases the damage to anchor bolts. There seems to be an optimum magnitude of pier base restraint that minimizes the maximum response displacements and residual displacements. For the design purpose, we discuss a necessary pier base moment capacity where the damage to pier base will no exceed the damage to steel pier. Furthermore, we examine the applicability of the static analysis based on the Newmark's energy conservation principle as an alternative to the nonlinear dynamic analysis.
