Abstract

In order to improve the seismic performance of railway simply supported beam bridges, the seismic design schemes in different seismic intensity areas are compared and analyzed in this paper. The results show that the relative displacement of beam piers is too large when the simply supported beam bridge (≥ 0.3g) in high intensity earthquake area only adopts damping and isolation bearings. In order to reduce the displacement after earthquake, it is necessary to increase damping energy dissipation devices. Simply supported beam bridge in low intensity earthquake area (≤ 0.2g) adopt shock-absorbing isolation bearing. The cost of bearing will not increase, and the safety of bridge under earthquake will be greatly improved. It is recommended to adopt isolation design in low intensity seismic area.
