Respected sir/mam, I am a student of M.tech structural engineering and I am doing a project on Behaviour of STEEL GIRDER INTEGRAL ABUTMENT BRIDGE under earthquake as a part of curriculum. I have queries regarding the project. 1) I am applying Non-linear time history analysis for that does I have to apply general link at abutment and pier if yes then can you please provide General link data thoroughly? 2)Do I have to apply a rigid link or some other boundary condition between the girder and abutment to define monolithic connection?
