“…Then, Neves et al [134] also incorporated a probabilistic lifetime-oriented multi-objective optimization framework in which the criteria are fully probabilistically described. In this phase, probabilistic frameworks are commonly used (Kim et al [135]; Dong et al [136]). Frangopol and Soliman [137] described the achievements and challenges of each, the life-cycle performance, maintenance, management and optimization of structural systems, taking into account uncertainties.…”

Abstract:The construction of bridges has been necessary for societies since ancient times, when the communication between and within towns, cities or communities was established. Until recently, the economic factor has been the only one considered in the decision-making of any type of construction process for bridges. However, nowadays, the objective should not be just the construction of bridges, but of sustainable bridges. Economic, social and environmental factors, which form the three pillars of sustainability, have been recently added. These three factors usually have conflicting perspectives. The decision-making process allows the conversion of a judgment into a rational procedure to reach a compromise solution. The aim of this paper is to review different methods and sustainable criteria used for decision-making at each life-cycle phase of a bridge, from design to recycling or demolition. This paper examines 77 journal articles for which different methods have been used. The most used methods are briefly described. In addition, a statistical study was carried out on the Multiple Attribute Decision-making papers reviewed.

“…These reinforcing bars and cover concrete of the RC bridge piers might have ruptured and spalled, respectively, as shown in Figure 8a, when the superstructures collapsed due to the tsunami. Pitting corrosion is a highly localized form of steel corrosion, and this can cause significant reductions in crosssection areas of reinforcing bars, resulting in the reductions of structural capacity (Kim et al 2011). Although Ghosh and Padgett (2010) presented a time-dependent seismic fragility format for bridges accounting for the deterioration of steel bearings due to corrosion, the mechanical model to consider the effect of corrosion on the seismic behavior of steel bearings needs to be improved.…”

The probabilistic estimation of tsunami impact on bridges and the evaluation of potential tsunami risk are important topics, but they are still in very early stages of development. First, this paper presents the damage of bridges during the great Tohoku-oki earthquake and giant tsunami of 11 March 2011 based on the field damage investigation. The damage conditions and the possible failure mechanisms of bridges due to tsunami are particularly discussed. Second, tsunami fragility curves are presented. Empirical tsunami fragility curves based on the utilization of damage data associated with past tsunami disasters have been developed. In this paper, the tsunami fragility curves are established based on simulations. Bridge failure probability can be estimated using the tsunami hazard and fragility curves. Finally, an illustrative example of the reliability estimation of a bridge exposed to tsunami hazard is presented.
