ABSTRACT
During the recent Loma Prieta Earthquake, major damage to certain key transportation elements greatly affected operations of major transportation systems within the San Francisco Bay Area. This experience has underscored the need to utilize seismic risk analysis concepts to optimize the planning and implementation of seismic risk reduction measures for transportation systems. Accordingly, this paper summarizes how seismic risk analysis can be applied to transportation system networks, and discusses the potential benefits of such analysis applications.(AU)
