Abstract

This report is  attempt towards understanding the design procedure of highway bridge pier. The  span  of simply supported  bridge is selected to design purpose. For these  procedure for design of bridge pier for both static and  seismic forces are shown in the results are compared. Transverse reinforcement in plastic hinge region is obtained from different codes and the results are compared. Finally, the role of response reduction factor in the design of bridge pier is also discussed. Verification of achieved ductility and R factor is determined using moment curvature analysis.
