"Results show that the bending moments in the arch from horizontal earthquake loading can be significant in relation to the gravity load actions. These moments are also very sensitive to the backfill and surrounding soil stiffness properties and rather less sensitive to the foundation soils beneath the arch.”
John Wood

Specific rules are given for the categorisation of bridges. A formula is given for the fundamental period of bridge
structures (for use in category BEDC-1 designs only). Specific structural response factors are given for bridges of
different types. Structural detailing requirements relevant to bridges are
given.

Problems with application to buried Problems with application to buried structuresstructures
The requirements for more detailed analysis methods are related to bridge span, and may not be relevant to buried structures.
Vertical earthquake effects may be important for buried structures, but only horizontal effects are required to be considered for almost all buried structures.
The formula for the fundamental period is not applicable to buried structures.
For static analysis the earthquake design force is not applicable to buried structures.
The appropriate response modification factor is not clear.

ClassificationClassification
Type III - Bridges and associated structures that are essential to post-earthquake recovery, as determined by the relevant authority.
Type II - Bridges that are designed to carry large volumes of traffic or bridges over other roadways, railways or buildings.
Type I - Bridges not of Type II or Type III.

Buried arch design studyBuried arch design study For each of the analyses the following
material stiffness properties were used:
– Typical soil and uncracked concrete.
– Soil stiffness reduced by half and uncracked concrete.
– Soil stiffness reduced by half, and concrete moment-curvature relationship (static analyses), or cracked stiffness (response spectrum analyses)
A total of 26 separate analyses were carried out.

ConclusionsConclusions
Buried arch structures with low to moderate axial loads have a large reserve ductility.
Where the failure mode is concrete compression failure under moderate earthquake loading is a possibility.
Bending moments found in the dynamic analyses were up to 50% higher than the static analysis results.

RecommendationsRecommendations Structure classification be related to fill height, rather than
span. Response modification factor to be related to the capacity
reduction factor. BEDC-1 and BEDC-2: design for vertical and horizontal
earthquake loads, using static or dynamic analysis. BEDC-3 and BEDC-4: design for vertical and horizontal
earthquake loads, using dynamic analysis. Determine the fundamental period from computer analysis
or formula for BEDC-1 and 2 structures.
– T = 0.055 0.5 seconds = deflection in millimetres at ground surface above the arch
under 1g horizontal load.
