PROCEEDINGS OF THE U.S.-ITALY WORKSHOP ON SEISMIC PROTECTIVE SYSTEMS FOR BRIDGES
The workshop consisted of presentation of 13 U.S. and 11 Italian papers which focused on research and the application of seismic protective systems for bridges, and the state-of-the-art and practice in bridge seismic isolation and energy dissipation in the two countries. Presentations were also made on the related subjects of: active control systems applications; the use of other advanced technologies for improving the seismic performance of bridges including the use of composites and rocking-column concepts; and the development of bridge fragility curves applicable to the performance of bridges with protective systems.
