 note = {In the current Japanese bridge design code, the seismic load of only one direction (1-dimension, 1-d) is considered. However, in fact, an actual seismic load has three components for N-S (north-south), E-W (east-west) and U-D (up-down) directions. The current paper presents a series of numerical results of steel box columns, which are used as piers of viaduct, under 3-d seismic load with 3 components. Two types of ground motion patterns of the main shock and the maximum aftershock measured in the Chuetsu Earthquake in 2004 are used as the seismic load. The results indicate that the severer deformation arises in the columns under 2-d (N-S and E-W components) or 3-d seismic load than the 1-d load by the main shock. However, under the aftershock, which contains ground motion of higher frequency, 1-d load gives larger displacement., Article, THIN-WALLED STRUCTURES. 49(5):544-553 (2011)},
