The problem of seismic protection of the bridge for the conditions of Uzbekistan is considered. The bridge is located in an area with estimated seismicity of 9 points. It has massive high supports on a natural foundation and relatively small and light spans. When selecting seismic isolation, this made it possible to use the span structures as a dynamic damper for the support vibrations in the direction along the bridge. Due to the damping effect, it was possible to achieve that the seismic forces in the support in the presence of the superstructure were less than in the free support without the superstructure. At the same time, the rigidity of fastening the superstructure to the support increased in comparison with the rigidity of classical seismic isolation, which facilitated the design of the supporting elements.
