Background
OneofthefirstimplementationsofperformancebasedbuildingdesignrequirementswasinHammurabi'sCode(c.
1795to1750BC),whereisstatedthatahouseshouldnotcollapseandkillanybody.Thisconceptisalso
describedinVitruviussDearchitecturalibridecem(TheTenBooksofArchitecture)infirstcenturyBC.In
moderntimes,thefirstdefinitionofperformancebasedbuildingdesignwasintroducedin1965inFranceby
BlachrewiththeAgrmentsystem[2]

Despitethis,thebuildingprocessremainedrelativelyconventionalforthenext50years,basedsolelyon
experienceandcodes,regulationsprescribedbylawwhichstifledinnovationsandchange.Theprescription
approachisatechnicalprocedurebasedonpastexperiencewhichconsistsofcomparingtheproposeddesignwith

Anewapproachbegantoemergeduringthesecondhalfofthe20thcentury,whenmanylocalbuildingmarkets
begantoshowthattheyneededgreaterflexibilityintheprocurementprocedurestofacilitatetheexchangeof
buildinggoodsbetweencountriesandtoimprovethespeedofproceduresandinnovationsinthebuildingprocess.
Thisinnovativeapproachtotheprocurement,design,contracting,managementandmaintenanceofbuildingswas
performancebasedbuilding(PBBD).

Mostrecentlytheclearestdefinitionofperformancebasedbuildingapproachwasexplainedin1982bytheCIB
W60Commissioninthereportn.64,whereGibsonstatedthatfirstandforemost,theperformanceapproachis
[...]thepracticeofthinkingandworkingintermsofendsratherthanmeans.[]Itisconcernedwithwhata
buildingorbuildingproductisrequiredtodo,andnotwithprescribinghowitistobeconstructed.[3]

ManyresearchestablishmentshavestudiedtheimplementationofPBBDduringthelastfifty
years.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10]Amajorityofareasofbuildingdesignremainopentoinnovation.

During19982001,theCIBBoardandProgrammeCommitteeinitiatedtheProactiveProgrammeonPerformance
BasedBuilding[11][12]inordertopracticallyimplementtechnicaldevelopmentsofperformancebasedbuilding.
ThisprogrammewasfollowedbytheestablishmentofthePerformanceBasedBuilding[13](PeBBu),running
fromOctober2001toOctober2005,thankstofundsfromtheEuropeanCommission(EC)FifthFramework
Programme.

ThePeBBuNetworkhadabroadandvariedprogramme,asetofactivitiesandproducedmanypaperstoaidinthe
implementationofsuchvision.

PeBBuThematicNetwork
PeBBuThematicNetworkwasmanagedbytheCIBGeneralSecretariat(InternationalCouncilforResearchand
InnovationinBuildingConstruction),particularlybytheCIBDevelopmentFoundation(CIBdf).ThePeBBu
Networkstartedworkingin2001andcompletedin2005.InthePeBBuNetwork73organisations,includedCIBdf
(coordinatingcontractor),BBRI(Belgium),VTT(Finland),CSTB(France),EGM(Netherlands),TNO
(Netherlands),BRE(UK),cooperatedtothisprojectbringingpeopletogethertosharetheirwork,theirinformation
andknowledge.TheobjectivesoftheNetworkwastostimulateandfacilitateinternationaldisseminationand
implementationofPerformanceBasedBuildinginbuildingandconstructionsector,maximisingthecontributionto
thisbytheinternationalResearchandDevelopmentcommunity.ThePeBBuThematicNetworkresultisdescribed

reportsfromthePeBBuDomains,UserPlatformsandRegionalPlatforms,aFinalManagementreportandfour
practicereportsforprovidingpracticalsupporttotheactualapplicationofPBBconceptinbuildingand
constructionsector.

PBB:Conceptualframework

Performanceconcept

InaPerformancebasedapproach,thefocusofalldecisions,isontherequiredperformanceinuseandonthe
evaluationsandtestingofbuildingasset.PerformanceBasedBuilding(PBB)isfocusedonperformancerequired
inuseforthebusinessprocessesandtheneedsoftheusers,andthenontheevaluationsandverificationofbuilding

applicabletotheprocurementofconstructedassetsandtoanyphaseofthewholelifecycleBuildingProcess,such
asstrategicplanning,assetmanagement,briefing/programming,designandconstruction,operationand
maintenance,managementanduse,renovationsandalterations,codes,regulationsandstandards.Itincludesmany
topicsandcriteria,whichcanbecategorizedasphysical,functional,environmental,financial,economical,
psychological,social,facilities,andothermore.Thesecriteriaarerelatedtosingularproject,accordingtothe

Twolanguages

ThePerformanceconceptrequirestwolanguages:thelanguageofdemandrequirementsandthelanguageofthe
