Damage suffered by slab-on-girder steel bridges during low-to-moderate seismic excitations reveal the deficiency of standards and codes and indicate the necessity of obtaining insight to the lateral load path and the capacity of individual component and assembled systems. In this paper, to improve the seismic performance of this type of bridges, the lateral load path was initially studied. Subsequently,...
