      EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Today about 200 bridges have been designed and constructed in the U.S. using the AASHTO Guide Specifications for Seismic Isolation Design (AASHTO, 2010) but this figure is a fraction of the potential number of applications and falls far short of the number of isolated bridges in other countries.

In addition, the interaction between the bridge and the

The non-collapse requirement for bridges under the design seismic event is more stringent than the relevant requirement for buildings, as it contains the continuation of emergency traffic. 2.2 Seismic behaviour of structures

The project specific criteria must establish the design parameters required to meet the level of performance outlined in Table 1. See MTD 20-11 for the project specific criteria approval process.
