- Abstract
As separated platform subway station structures are close to bridge piles, their analysis under static and seismic loading is required. An artificial earthquake record, generated by using Kanai-Tajimi model and trigonometric series superposition method, is used to analyze the seismic performance of the subway station structure. Different construction sequences of bridge piles and subway stations are considered in the analysis of structural seismic performance. Irrespective of the type of analysis, most of the horizontal and the vertical stresses of the subway station with existing bridge piles show a decreasing trend as compared to those without bridge piles. The stresses associated with post-constructed bridge piles increase significantly as compared to those without piles, especially in areas of stress concentrations. A parametric analysis of the distance between the subway station and the bridge pile is also conducted. The percentage increase in horizontal and vertical stress of the subway station, with post-construction pile, gradually decreases with increasing distance. However, in case of existing piles the percentage increase in stress, as a function of distance, has an inflection point.
