Abstract:
Introducing an integral abutment into a skewed bridge to form a skewed-integral-abutment bridge (SIAB) can improve the in-plane torsion and the beam drop phenomenon of a superstructure during an earthquake. Owing to the integration of the girder and abutment, complicated abutment-pile-soil interactions occur when the SIAB suffers from seismic load. A pseudo-static cyclic test on the behavior of a skewed-integral-abutment-steel-H-pile-soil system was conducted based on an existing integral-abutment bridge. The seismic performance of the skewed-integral-abutment-steel-H-pile-soil system, the distribution of backfill pressure, and the horizontal deformation of the steel H-pile were studied. The test results indicate that the skewed-integral-abutment-steel-H-pile-soil system has an excellent energy dissipation capacity and ductility. The backfill has a significant effect on the seismic performance of the system. Backfill increases the lateral bearing capacity and stiffness; however, it makes the residual force and displacement asymmetrical when loading in the positive and negative directions. During positive loading, the lateral bearing capacity and stiffness are higher, however the residual bearing capacity and residual displacement are lower.
