Seismic Design of Geosynthetic-Reinforced Soil Bridge Abutments with Modular Block Facing
TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Web-Only Document 187: Seismic Design of Geosynthetic-Reinforced Soil Bridge Abutments with Modular Block Facing explores design methods and construction guidelines for using geosynthetic-reinforced soil (GRS) systems in bridge abutments in seismically active regions.
The report focuses on single-span, simply-supported bridges subjected to seismic forces.
