Abstract

Because of complex topography of bridge sit, many high piers bridges with unconventional configurations in western mountainous areas of China are used in highway. The damage of the bridges in the Wenchuan earthquake told us that the new concepts and measures should be used in mountain bridges design. The importance of the seismic concept design, the structure analysis and the details of seismic measures for bridge was discussed. Some advices in the seismic design of bridge are given.
