Seismic performance of a bridge column integrated by multiple steel pipes with directly-connected piles

A bridge column integrated by multiple steel pipes and connected directly to piles with or without a footing is proposed to design a rational foundation of the column. Its seismic performance is evaluated based on the large-scale shaking tests and a soil-water coupled FE analysis.
