What is Seismic Performance of Shear Keys in Chile about?

1) The study evaluates how external sacrificial shear keys influence the seismic behavior of common highway bridges in Chile located in intermediate to high seismic zones, motivated by damages observed to shear keys in the 2010 Maule earthquake. 2) Two bridge models were used - one without shear keys allowing unrestricted displacement, and one with nonlinear shear keys providing transverse constraint. Fragility curves were generated from nonlinear analyses of synthetic earthquake records. 3) Curves sho
