Seismic Analysis of Abutment Structures

This document outlines the calculation of seismic coefficients for a bridge abutment according to IRC SP 114:2018. It provides stiffness values for the abutment cap, stem, and footing that are used to calculate the seismic coefficient. Stiffness of bearings is also included. Charts list the component stiffness, load for 1mm displacement, time period, seismic acceleration ratio, and other values used for longitudinal direction seismic analysis of the bridge abutment.
