Bridge Pile Foundations Subjected to Liquefaction-Induced Lateral Spreading
Principal Investigator:
Arash Khosravifar, Portland State University
Summary:
The overall goal of this research is to improve the seismic safety and resiliency of highway bridges in the Pacific Northwest during earthquakes. Past earthquakes have shown that liquefaction-induced lateral spreading can be a major cause of collapse for pile foundations. Bridge engineers generally agree that pile foundations must be designed for: (a) lateral spreading loads caused by liquefaction...
