Alaska Bridge Bent Pushover Software Including Concrete Confinement Effects

项目名称：	Alaska Bridge Bent Pushover Software Including Concrete Confinement Effects
摘要：	Software for the pushover analysis of Alaska-style bridge bents will be developed for this project. Freely available software libraries will be utilized in the software development. A graphical user interface will be created from the OpenGL graphical library, while the modules for nonlinear structural analysis will be created using OpenSees, an open sources finite element software framework. It is anticipated that the proposed software will significantly reduce the cost and time spent designing Alaska-style bridges to new displacement-based American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) seismic guidelines. Currently, engineers use disparate computer programs, making the design of new bridges time consuming. The socio-economic benefits derived from the software will be felt by all residents of Alaska in the form of better and more cost-effective bridges designs.
