Geotechnical Engineering Circular No. 3 - Earthquake Engineering for Highways, Design Principles

Author: Kavazanjian Jr, E Matasovic, N Hadj-Hamou, T Sabatini, P J | Size: 37.9 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: FHWA | Year: 1997 | pages: 186

This document has been written to provide information on how to apply principles of geotechnical earthquake engineering to planning, design, and retrofit of highway facilities. Geotechnical earthquake engineering topics discussed in this document include: deterministic and probabilistic seismic hazard assessment; evaluation of design ground motions; seismic and site response analyses; evaluation of liquefaction potential and seismic settlements; seismic slope stability and deformation analyses; and seismic design of foundations and retaining structures. The document provides detailed information on basic principles and analyses, with reference to where detailed information on these analyses can be obtained. Design examples illustrating the principles and analyses described in this document are provided in Volume II - Design Examples, FHWA-SA-97-077

Geotechnical Engineering Circulars Geotechnical Engineering Circular No. 3 - Earthquake Engineering for Highways, Design Examples, Volume 2

Author: Kavazanjian Jr, E Matasovic, N Hadj-Hamou, T Sabatini, P J | Size: 8.1 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: FHWA | Year: 1997 | pages: 163

This document presents a series of five design examples illustrating the principles and methods of geotechnical earthquake engineering and seismic design for highway facilities. These principles and methods are described in Volume I - Design Principles, FHWA-SA-97-076. The examples presented in this volume cover a wide range of problems encountered in geotechnical earthquake engineering practice. The design examples presented in this document include: seismic design of a shallow bridge foundation; seismic design of a driven pile bridge foundation; seismic design of a gravity retaining wall based on results of a detailed seismic hazard analysis; seismic slope stability analysis of a cut slope in soft rock; and liquefaction potential analysis.
