This paper quantified the seismic resilience (SR) of different bridge classes by performing three-dimensional advanced numerical simulations in Opensees. SR was calculated by performing the seismic resilience for recovery investments of bridge (SRRIB) methodology that is based on the quantification of the losses and the repair time. In particular, the probabilistic-based methodology developed by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER) was implemented to produce fragility curves by considering the longitudinal displacement of the deck as the reference parameter. The recovery process was modeled using a linear formulation due to the unavailability of information from past earthquakes. SR for the selected bridge classes was calculated in terms of the seismic intensities to be applied for decision-making procedures during pre- and postearthquake assessments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
