Development of a Probabilistic Simplified Design Procedure for Assessing the Effects of Liquefaction and Lateral Spreading on Bridges The primary objective of this research project is to develop a simplified design procedure for evaluating the effects of liquefaction and lateral spreading on bridges. This simplified design procedure must be developed to work within the PEER probabilistic performance-based engineering framework in that sources of uncertainty within each step should be incorporated properly. This project will translate pertinent PEER research findings into forms that can be adopted in practice as a probabilistic-based alternative to existing deterministic approaches. The project will demonstrate how the PEER methodology can be effectively used with simpler design-level analysis methods to make informed decisions.
