dc.description | Although the precepts of capacity design and detailing for ductile performance are now well established, the end-user community is now demanding more in terms of predictable performance with an expectation that structures should survive earthquakes with minimal and preferably no damage. The paper first explains the shortcomings of present designs from a probabilistic fragility point-of-view, and then goes on to explain how performance can be improved by making a paradigm shift. This paper examines the emerging quest where structural engineering researchers are investigating design alternatives that strive for damage avoidance. | en-US |
