Abstract
The port facilities have been recognized as emergent supply transporting base in order to provide assistance for rehabilitation of disaster-affected areas. A system to evaluate the residual structural performance of the damaged facilities is required to judge whether the facility can be used or not. This paper deals with the residual structural performance of RC superstructure of open-type wharf damaged by earthquake. From the results of loading tests on the 1/4 scaled model, the failure process and the residual load carrying capacity of the RC superstructure after the earthquake are investigated.
