WHAT
is
SEISMIC DESIGN?

Seismic design involves designing structures such that


they are able to resist the forces generated by
earthquakes, aiming to minimize damage and ensure
RC-Tall Building safety.

Why need of Seismic Design


in Nepal
located in boundary between Indian and Eurasian plate
Indian plate is subducting at a rate of 3cm per year
history of earthquake in nepal
loss of property and life

SHORTCOMINGS OF CODE-
BASED DESIGN
Codes change every 3 to 5 years, should we upgrade our structures every 3
to 5 years to conform?

Codes intend for “Life Safety”, not damage limits or cost implications.

Not specially developed for tall buildings.

Prescriptive in nature, no explicit check on outcome.

WHAT IS
PBD??
Performance Based Design (PBD) is an approach in which structural
design criteria are expressed in terms of achieving a set of performance
levels. PBD advances seismic design by focusing on reaching the
specified performance goals rather than simply following code criteria.

on tall buildings.

and Performance-Based Design

02 Non-linear dynamic analysis is not considered.


Structural components involving beams, columns,
03 foundations (pile, mat), walls, slabs, staircase,
basement wall, lift wall, shear wall etc.

LITERATURE REVIEW

Force-Based Limit State Method (LSM)


• Widely used in global structural design.
• Does not consider post-earthquake performance or seismic risks.
• Results in high base shear, high ductility demand, and poor post-seismic performance
11

LITERATURE REVIEW

Performance-Based Design (PBD) Principles


Focuses on meeting specific performance objectives.
Starts with end goals, uses analysis, simulation, testing.
Employs risk assessment techniques considering hazards, vulnerabilities, and
consequences.
Integrates seismic hazards and structural damage considerations into the design
phase.
12

LITERATURE REVIEW

Differences Between LSM and PBD


LSM: Capacity and demand, prescriptive codes.
PBD: Risk assessment, performance objectives, integrates design considerations and
uncertainties.
13

LITERATURE REVIEW

Research and Application of PBD


Ongoing research to develop and refine PBD theories and methodologies.
Advantages observed in studies on RC buildings (short and tall) per American design
codes.
Goel et al. (2009): PBD reduces iterative design, improves seismic performance in tall
RC frames.
Chaudhari & Dhoot (2016): PBD ensures immediate occupancy and life safety
performance in a four-storey building.
Gil-Oulbe et al. (2020): PBD improves seismic load carrying capacity and economy.
14

LITERATURE REVIEW

Benefits and Future of PBD


Ensures uniform seismic risk levels, incorporates foundation compliance and non-
standard hysteretic characteristics.
Dual code approach proposed: prescriptive for routine structures, PBD for
complex/high-value structures.
Essential for safety, economy, and innovation in high-risk structures (hospitals,
emergency facilities, high-rises).
15

LITERATURE REVIEW

PBD in Nepal
Urbanization leads to tall building development; high seismic activity necessitates
PBD.
Performance-based design for seismic resistance using IS codes.
Relevant IS guidelines for design include IS 456:2000, IS 1893-2016, IS 13920, SP-16,
SP-34, and IS 875 (Parts I-IV).
16

LITERATURE REVIEW

Conclusion
Shift from prescriptive to performance-based design is crucial in seismic engineering.
PBD offers better seismic performance and lower life-cycle costs.
Adoption of PBD for complex and mission-critical structures is imperative for safety
and innovation.
Nepal's urbanization and seismic risks highlight the need for PBD in constructing
resilient tall buildings.
