KIANOSH ASHKANI ZADEH is an academic who published a paper in 2013 entitled Seismic analysis of the RC integral bridges using performance-based design approach including soil s. KIANOSH ASHKANI ZADEH published this work as part of a team: Ashkani Zadeh, Kianosh. Here is a description of this work: Bridges in high seismic risk zones are designed and built to withstand damage when subjected to earthquakes. However, there have been cases of bridge collapse due to design flaws around the world in the last few decades. To avoid failure and minimize seismic risk, collapse issue should be appropriately addressed in the next generation bridge design codes. One of the important subjects that needs to be addressed in bridge design codes is Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI), especially when the supporting soil is soft. In this research, SSI is incorporated within a performance-based engineering framework to assess the behaviour of RC integral bridges. 3-D nonlinear models of three types of integral bridges with different skew angles are built. For each bridge type, two archetype models are constructed with and without consi.
