Abstract:

The purpose of this research was to develop a comprehensive understanding of the levels of support movements that bridges may tolerate before exceeding strength or service limit states. This research developed analytical procedures to objectively determine the acceptable levels of bridge foundation movements based upon superstructure tolerance considering AASHTO load and resistance factor design (LRFD) strength and service limit states. Revisions to the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications were proposed that provide rational guidance for foundation movement limits that include vertical and rotational movements.
