  • Study on Site Specific Strong Ground Motion for Seismic Retrofit Design
    A STUDY ON SITE-SPECIFIC STRONG GROUND MOTION FOR SEISMIC RETROFIT DESIGN OF THE HANSHIN EXPRESSWAY LONG-SPAN BRIDGES IN OSAKA BAY AREA Tsutomu NISHIOKA*, Toshihiko NAGANUMA*, Hidesada KANAJI* and Takao KAGAWA** ABSTRACT The site-specific strong ground motion in Osaka Bay Area is studied in order to estimate the seismic load for the seismic retrofit of the Hanshin Expressway long-span bridges. We consider the crustal earthquake and the plate boundary earthquake as the maximum credible earthquake deterministically. The empirical Green’s function method and the stochastic semi-empirical Green’s function method are used to predict the site-specific ground motion. The study shows that there are some differences in the acceleration response spectra between the predicted strong ground motion and the standard ground motion in the Japanese specifications for highway bridges. 1. INTRODUCTION Many bridges suffered heavy damage from the Hyogoken-nanbu earthquake that struck the Kobe city in Japan on Jan. 17, 1995. The seismic retrofit program for the existing bridges made a full-fledged start slightly behind the restoration of the damaged structures in the wake of the disaster in Hanshin Expressway Public Corporation. Until today, we have already strengthened most of the middle- or small-scale brides seismically. But the long-span bridges, mainly located in Bay Route of the Hanshin Expressway network, have not retrofitted yet due to the financial problems. Although most of the highway bridges are retrofitted seismically according to the standard seismic loads in the current Japanese specifications for highway bridges [JRA(2002)], it is desirable in view of earthquake engineering that the input ground motion for the seismic design of a structure is estimated in consideration of source, path and local site effects, shown in Figure 1.

Ultimate strength design considering structural nonlinearities compares the ultimate load- carrying capacity of a structure with the estimated load demands and maintains a suitable ratio between them. Generally, this kind of design philosophy is applied to the long-span bridge structures with spans of more than 200 m, i.e., arches, cable-stayed girder bridges, stiffened suspension bridges, etc. 2. Working stress design relies on an elastic linear analysis of the structures at normal working loads. The strength of the structural member is assessed by imposing a factor of safety between the maximum stress at working loads and the critical stress, such as the tension yield stress © 2000 by CRC Press LLC TABLE 65.1 Loading Combinations and Their Multiplier Coefficients for Allowable Stresses No.

  • Damage Assessment of Expressway Networks in Japan Based on Seismic Monitoring
    0551 DAMAGE ASSESSMENT OF EXPRESSWAY NETWORKS IN JAPAN BASED ON SEISMIC MONITORING Fumio YAMAZAKI1, Hitoshi MOTOMURA2 And Tatsuya HAMADA3 SUMMARY Fragility curves for expressway structures in Japan were proposed based on actual damage data from the 1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu (Kobe) Earthquake. First, spatial distributions of strong motion indices, e.g., the peak ground acceleration, the peak ground velocity, the JMA seismic intensity, were estimated using Kriging technique, in which attenuation relations of these indices are considered as trend components. The actual damage data for expressway structures in Japan due to the 1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake were compared with these estimated ground motion indices and then fragility curves were constructed assuming log-normal distributions. Together with a seismic network for the expressway networks, the proposed fragility curves may be used in seismic damage assessment of expressway structures in Japan. INTRODUCTION Japan Highway Public Corporation (JH) owns expressway networks with a total length of 6,456 km (as of April, 1999). In order to gather earthquake information at an early stage (Yamazaki et al., 1998) and to establish an efficient traffic control just after an earthquake, JH had deployed 123 accelerometers along its expressways (1 instrument per 40 km) before the Hyogoken-Nanbu (Kobe) Earthquake on January 17, 1995. JH further deployed 202 new seismometers along its expressways (1 instrument per 20 km together with existing ones) after the Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake (Fig. 1). The new instruments can measure the spectrum intensity (SI) and the instrumental JMA (Japan Meteorological Agency) intensity (Shabestari and Yamazaki, 1998) as well as the peak ground acceleration (PGA).

  • Chapter 6 Building Competitive Economy and Society
    Section 1 Constructing Trafc Networks Chapter 6 Building Competitive Economy and Society Section 1 Constructing Trafc Networks 1 Developing Trunk Road Networks (1) Developing Trunk Road Networks Since the First Five-Year Road Construction Plan formulated in 1954, Japanese highways have been continually con- structed. For example, the construction of national highway networks, including expressways, has provided a major impe- tus in the rejuvenation of regional economies by encouraging plant locations near expressway interchanges. Additionally, it has helped enhance the quality and safety of national life by making broad-area medical services accessible to rural II areas and allowing broad rerouting to avoid highway disruption by natural disasters. An example includes the Sakai-Koga IC to Tsukuba Chuo IC segment of the Metropolitan Intercity Expressway Chapter 6 (Ken-O Expressway) opened on February 26, 2017, which resulted in roughly 90% connection of the 300 km of total roadway on the Expressway. This development is expected to attract more businesses and promote sightseeing activities. On the other hand, there are still missing links of expressways and arterial road networks in other parts of the country, which we plan to develop in a systematical manner.

  • Empowering Local Authorities Through Intergovernmental Collaborations the Case of Union of Kansai Governments
    Empowering Local Authorities through Intergovernmental Collaborations The case of Union of Kansai Governments Japan Project Brief Background and Objectives Local autonomy is guaranteed by the Constitution of Japan, and local governments play an important role to provide public services in consideration of local contexts and needs. However, Japanese administrative systems are quite centralized and standardized by national government in practice. Japan’s local governments tend to rely heavily on the national government’s direct subsidies and/or large-scale capital projects, and therefore fiscal decentralization is also an issue to ensure local entities take their own initiatives. This centralized governance structure has long been controversial from the standpoints of local autonomy and economic growth. Decentralization has also been discussed in the context of the issue of excessive concentration of financial and human resources and administrative power in the Tokyo Metropolitan Region (TMR), which would lose economic competitiveness of local cities on the domestic and international market and increase national security risks if there was an unexpected breakdown in capital functions. In the face of moves to strengthen local autonomy and administrative decentralization for local revitalization, the national government decided to confer further discretion on local governments and to allow them to establish intergovernmental authorities with limited autonomy rights through the Local Autonomy Act Amendment of 1994. Kansai is located in the southern-central part of Japan's main island (Figure 1) and forms the second largest economic center of the country. Prefectural and municipal governments in Kansai have been making spontaneous efforts on intergovernmental collaboration for infrastructure planning and institutional development.
