The simple for dead load and continuous for live load (SDCL) steel bridge system offers an accelerated construction solution for steel bridges. The available details for the SDCL steel bridge system consist of a cast-in-place normal strength concrete (NSC) diaphragm. This paper presents a study on developing a continuity detail SDCL system in seismic areas using ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) as the diaphragm to simplify construction, improve durability, and increase tolerances. This paper is part of a large study on the non-seismic and seismic application of the SDCL steel bridge system using the UHPC diaphragm. The numerical investigation and validated modeling techniques developed in the study were used in this paper to focus on the detail required for the seismic areas. A series of numerical models were developed and subjected to types of loadings that would occur in the bridge under earthquake excitations. Based on the analysis results, a set of design recommendations was developed. The UHPC connection includes simple girder-end detail, the straight development of deck reinforcement in the diaphragm, and partial use of UHPC in the diaphragm. The developed detail can improve the on-site construction time, durability, and constructability of SDCL steel bridge systems. |
