Abstract
The liquefaction-induced ground flow inflicted serious damage to various engineered structures including highway bridges in the Kobe Earthquake of 1995. This paper summarizes the estimation of ground flow force acted on highway bridge foundations and the design technique developed to secure seismic safety of bridge foundations for liquefaction-induced ground flow, which was incorporated into the Design Specifications for Highway Bridges in Japan.
