Unlocking Bridge Resilience: Why Energy and Residuals Matter in Quake Design

Hey there! Let me tell you about something super important in making sure our bridges can stand tall, even when the ground decides to do a little jig. We’re talking about seismic design, specifically for those big, continuous concrete box-girder bridges you see everywhere, especially in places like California. It’s…
