This project furthered the development of three strategies that could positively impact maintaining post-seismic operations of lifeline corridors. In Year 1, most of the focus was on the development of the three individual strategies. In Year 2, a follow-up project will include more formal assessments of the situation in which ...

This report contributes to the development of three key strategies for increasing the seismic resilience of bridges, accelerating their construction, extending their lifespan, and decreasing life-cycle costs. The strategies considered were (1) precasting reinforced concrete columns, (2) constructing columns with concrete ...
