Abstract

Abstract: The seismic response of a high-pier long-span continuous rigid frame bridge under the action of far-field long-period ground motions is studied. A numerical calculation model of a high-pier long-span continuous rigid frame bridge whose span layout is (95+170+95)m is established by using finite element software. According to the established wave selection criteria, 10 long-period far-field seismic records and 10 ordinary seismic records are selected from the strong earthquake record database. Using the dynamic time history analysis method, the seismic response of the bridge structure under the far-field long-period seismic record and the ordinary seismic record was obtained through calculation, and a comparative analysis was carried out. The results show that the seismic response of a high-pier long-span continuous rigid frame bridge under far-field long-period ground motions is significantly greater than that of ordinary ground motions, the effect of ground motion spectrum characteristics should be considered in seismic design of such Bridges.
