Analysis on Seismic Performance of Corrugated Steel Web Continuous Rigid Frame Bridge

Abstract

Corrugated steel web continuous rigid frame bridge is a new form of bridge. Using the finite element analysis software Midas Civil to analyze dynamic characteristics of the corrugated steel web continuous rigid frame bridge in a method of subspace iron and the nonlinear dynamic time history analysis method is used to analyze the seismic performance of the bridge, then compared with the ordinary concrete web continuous rigid frame bridge. The results show that the natural frequency of the corrugated steel web continuous rigid frame bridge is smaller than that of the concrete web continuous rigid frame bridge, and the seismic performance of the corrugated steel web continuous rigid frame bridge is superior to that of concrete web continuous rigid frame bridge, the improvement of the seismic performance of piers is most significant.
