This sentence needs rephrasing: Turkey Erzurum Province, located in the district of Şenkaya Yunoren Bridge, experienced major earthquakes in Turkey have been studied using the present method for determining the effect of performance and strengthening the bridge. In the study, the bridge was modeled in three dimensions with the SAP2000 package program, and the analysis results were obtained from this program. According to the analysis results, it was observed that the building columns were at the advanced damage level and the main carrier beams were at the damage level to prevent collapse. In order to minimize the damages in the structure, a seismic damping device was placed in the center of rotation of the beams where non-linear displacements are intense. Another strengthening method is to support the beams with lateral stability connections to prevent out-of-plane buckling of beams during earthquakes. Three different situations of the obtained structure were analyzed, and the results were compared. It was observed that the structure formed by the support of the beam with lateral stability joints displayed a ductile behavior and remained at an obvious damage level and the structure in which the seismic damping device was installed remained at the level of obvious damage. It has been concluded that the building should be strengthened in order to stand without collapse during an earthquake
