Design Criterion and a Technical Approach for the Controlled Seismic Behavior of Continuous Girder Bridges

Table 7

Displacement of key points in various cases.

	Maximum deformation of damper	Maximum displacement of damper/deformation capacity	Maximum relative displacement of the side pier #1 toward girder	Maximum relative displacement of the side pier #4 toward girder
i	—	—	0.19 (0.09)	0.20 (0.09)
ii	0.12 (0.09)	0.41	0.16 (0.09)	0.18 (0.09)
iii	0.08 (0.02)	0.28	0.15 (0.01)	0.16 (0.02)
iv	0.07 (0.00)	0.22	0.13 (0.01)	0.14 (0.00)
v	—	—	0.13 (0.01)	0.14 (0.01)

Note. The use of parentheses () in the table indicates the residual displacement.
