Parametric analysis of Istanbul's Ring Road viaduct for three levels of seismic load

The paper presents a numerical analysis of the Istanbul's ring road viaduct that is currently under construction within the Northern Marmara Highway project. The structure, due to its location on seismic prone areas is exposed to seismic loads of different magnitude and different return periods. The study is fo-cused on concrete bridge supports that are design to work in nonlinear range. The study, conducted in SOFISTIK environment, aim at global responses of the whole viaduct. The detailed nonlinear analysis of concrete hinge development at the bridge support is performed in ABAQUS. The obtained results confirmed the correctness of the assumptions stated at the beginning of the design process.
