RMBridge--Seismic Eigen Analysis with CQC Method for Repeated Sub-Systems

In eigenvalue analysis of repetitive structures—where identical sub-systems exist independently within a single model—the same frequencies and eigenmodes are often assigned repeatedly to each sub-system. This leads to an issue with the CQC (Comple...

RM Bridge update to use the correct AASHTO reduction factor for reinforced/prestressed concrete based on tensile strain in reinforcing at ultimate limit state.

The current RM bridge ultimate capacity calculations allow for material reduction factors only, which are not used by AASHTO for reinforced and prestressed concrete. AASHTO concrete reduction factors for flexure and P-M capacities are based on the...
