Abstract
Egnatia Motorway in Greece is currently one of the largest civil engineering projects in Europe with over 600 bridges on its main axis alone. With the motorway traversing a wide range of seismically active terrains, a variety of bridge forms with different earthquake protection systems are constructed or planned on this project. This paper provides general information on Egnatia Motorway bridges and describes the technical requirements for their seismic design. Measures taken to resist potential seismic forces are outlined for a few major bridges, and computer software developed for seismic hazard risk assessment of the bridges on this project is described.
