February 2014 (38.02400, -121.75162) Antioch Bridge |
This Caltrans bridge was designed by my boss Chuck Yakabe in the 1970s and the retrofit was completed last year by Kim Yong-Pil. It includes friction pendulum bearings just slightly higher than the existing bearings that can move 0.6 meters for the design earthquake. More information on the retrofit is available on the Internet.
