Method of Performance-Based Design

Abstract:

In order to overcome some deficiency of design, American earthquake engineering and structural engineering experts have profound conclusion after the previous earthquakes, improved bearing capacity design method, put forward the theory of performance-based design. Methods of performance-based design mainly include displacement coefficient method; direct displacement based design method, capacity spectrum method and improved capacity spectrum method. Through the understanding of the main methods, enable us to better understand performance-based design, so as to improve the design of civil engineering.
