Abstract:

This report describes a precast concrete bridge bent system that is suitable for high seismic zones. Lateral load tests on both the top (column-to-cap) and bottom (column-to-footing) connections of the system have demonstrated that the connections have strengths and ductilities similar to those of comparable cast-in-place connections. Additional tests on the bottom connection of the system are ongoing, and construction of a demonstration bridge project will begin later this year. The final development of this system is partially funded by the FHWA’s Highways for LIFE Technology Partnerships Program (DTFH61-09-00005). Information on both the Highways for LIFE program and this project may be found at http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/hfl/.
