title = "A study on the fragility of highway bridges in Taiwan",
abstract = "This paper describes procedures of bridge fragility analysis for the highway bridges on the south-north freeway in Taiwan, and studies the evaluation of parameters used in bridge seismic damage assessment. First, the types of the bridge structures in Taiwan south-north freeway are reviewed and a classification based on the available data is proposed. Second, the description of failure mechanisms and criteria in different damage states adopted in this research are summarized. Third, the theoretical methodology of the fragility analysis for the proposed bridge classes and examples for some typical bridge structures are presented. Parameters for describing the fragility functions for each class are also generated and shown in the paper.",
