Abstract:
An automated people mover (APM) at Los Angeles International Airport will reduce traffic and provide quicker access to terminals and transportation stations. To accommodate the APM guideway construction over operational roads and around existing buildings, the project team applied a cast-in-place segmental bridge construction method using formwork travelers.

This paper presents the earthquake analyses and seismic design features of The Getty Center Tram Guideway aerial structure. The Getty Center site complex, its topography, and its geology are described. Seismic design criteria for this aerial structure are presented. Seismic analysis and the development of the site specific acceleration response spectrum used in guideway design are described. The design of the most typical column and foundation is presented. Methods used to account for soil/structure interaction between the geotechnical and structural engineer are shown.

Recent years have seen great strides in the construction industry's ability to evaluate and describe the quality of various conventional concrete floor surfaces. Occasionally, however, traditional approaches to evaluation of a surface are insufficient. Such was the case when the design team attempted to describe surface qualities necessary for successful operation of an air-supported people mover recently installed at the Getty Center in Los Angeles, California.

ACI Committee 358 has recently revised and published "Analysis and Design of Reinforced and Prestressed Concrete Guideway Structures," ACI 358.1R-92. New recommendations are introduced to bring the design criteria up to date and in line with current demands. Some of the design concepts that are unique to rapid transit systems are reviewed from the planning stages through design and construction.
