By examining seismic retrofit experience with three buildings in Seattle, important practical issues regarding the underlying economic, political, and social conflicts are explored. The philosophy of seismic retrofit and its resulting consequences for life safety, building usefulness both before and after seismic events, and the economic consequences of retrofit are examined in light of the professional and regulatory atmosphere. While a great deal of information is generated nationally in the field of seismic retrofit, its assimilation by the practising professional and regulatory official is incomplete and uncoordinated. The work proposes, therefore, a seismic retrofit design philosophy for discussion and possible use as a premise for development of codes. The proposed philosophy coordinates the economic, social, and life safety aspects of seismic retrofit in a way that meets the needs of designers and regulators who are currently forced to make social policy in their everyday design interactions.

Retrofit Design

In original seismic design of the Seto-Ohashi Bridges, an inland near-field earthquake was not considered. And there is concern that large-scale earthquakes would occur in the near future. Therefore seismic retrofit for truss bridges of the Seto-Ohashi Bridges has started. In the seismic retrofit design for the truss bridges, it was decided that seismic response of overall bridge was reduced firstly and the truss members were strengthened by additional stiffeners secondly. The stiffeners were attached to the truss members by bolting, because it was difficult to ensure quality of field welding. As inner surface of the closed box-section truss members has no coating, drilling bolt holes in the members was thought to increase the probability of corrosion of the members. Therefore it was decided to apply airtightness measures for the inside of the closed box-section members after their drying.
