Chapter 6 Seismic Design - Washington State …
Chapter 6 Seismic Design Seismic Design Responsibility and Policy Responsibility of the Geotechnical Designer The geotechnical designer is responsible for providing geotechnical/ Seismic input parameters to the structural engineers for their use in structural Design of the transportation infrastructure ( , bridges, retaining walls, ferry terminals, etc.). Specific elements to be addressed by the geotechnical designer include the Design ground motion parameters, site response, geotechnical Design parameters, and geologic hazards. The geotechnical designer is also responsible for providing input for evaluation of soil-structure interaction (foundation response to Seismic loading), earthquake-induced earth pressures on retaining walls, and an assessment of the impacts of geologic hazards on the structures. Geotechnical Seismic Design Policies Seismic Performance Objectives In general, the AASHTO Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) Bridge Design Specifications shall be followed for structure classification of bridges.
