Seismic vulnerability assessment of a 11-masonry arched railway bridge spans that extends for a total length of about 161m.

Seismic vulnerability assessment of a 11-masonry arched railway bridge spans that extends for a total length of about 161m. The verification was conducted through software capable of modeling the masonry through a constitutive link "total straining crack model" that simulates brittle behavior of the masonry. The scope of work also included the design of seismic adjustment actions, and the determination of the seismic risk index value post adjustment.
