Elastomeric Bearing Forces for Single Span Zone 1 SDC?
I am designing a single span bridge and the seismic zone is 1. This is a service bridge so it is only 16' wide (two girder). As per AASHTO (8th edition) sec 3.10.9.2, my As value is >0.05. If I use 0.25 times vertical reaction (dead + live) it is 54kips. I am really confused as to what to do...- jcbush01
