Influence of ground motion spatial variation, site condition and SSI on the required separation distances of bridge structures to avoid seismic pounding.

It is commonly understood that earthquake ground excitations at multiple supports of large dimensional structures are not the same. These ground motion spatial variations may significantly influence the structural responses. Similarly, the interaction between the foundation and the surrounding soil...
