Bent column piers are widely used in small and medium-sized span bridges, especially in prefabricated assembly bridges at home and abroad. For the high-intensity seismic areas in mountainous areas, the damage to bridge piers of this type of bridge is generally severe in previous destructive earthquakes. The seismic response of pier column structure can be reduced by reducing the self-weight of pier bent cap structure. On the premise of ensuring the sufficient support width of bent cap and preventing the damage of “falling beam”, the bent cap of bent pier is “hollowed out” to reduce the self-weight of the bent cap structure. The implementability of the new structure is preliminarily discussed through the comparison and analysis with the common solid-section bent caps.
