1 2003 PEER Annual Meeting Issues and Needs for Implementing Performance-based Approaches in Engineering Practice By: Ronald O. Hamburger, S.E. Consulting Engineers Boston / San Francisco / Washington DC

2 Discussion Topics Current State of Practice Procedure Problems ATC-58 Project Vision Needs

3 Issues & Needs for Implementing Performance-based Approaches in Engineering Practice Current State of Practice ATC-40 ASCE-31 FEMA-356

4 Current Process Step 1 Define Performance Objective Performance Objective = Ground Motion x% - 50 years + Performance Level Operational Immediate Occupancy Life Safety Collapse Prevention

5 Step 2 Perform Analysis D t Predict Response Parameters: Strength demand on elements Inelastic deformation or ductility demand on elements Interstory drift ratios

6 3- Evaluate Performance Lateral Force - V 0 D LS D CP Lateral Displacement - D Comparing individual element strength and deformation demands against tabulated acceptable values Acceptable values based on: Element type & detailing Element importance Performance Level

7 Current Practice - Benefits Relatively simple to implement Encourages engineers to think in nonlinear manner Identify damage/failure modes Evaluate significance Clear improvement over past linear, codebased approaches

8 Current State Problems Standard Performance Levels don t directly relate to consequences of interest to consumer Number of lives lost $ repair cost Days lost occupancy Operational Immediate Occupancy Life Safety Collapse Prevention 0% Damage or Loss 99% none Time out of service permanent

9 Current State - Problems Performance evaluation is based on element behavior, not global behavior Much of the acceptance criteria is based on judgment rather than data Reliability of guidelines is unknown Potential liability problems associated with owner perception of performance warranty Guidelines appear to produce designs that are quite conservative compared with traditional practice

10 ATC-58 Project Develop a next-generation of performancebased seismic design guidelines Applicable to: Design of new buildings Upgrade of existing buildings Compatible with parallel efforts in: Blast Engineering Fire Engineering

11 ATC-58 Project Tasks Performance communication lexicon that is meaningful to stakeholders Building performance prediction engine Using performance communication lexicon Design performance levels and objectives Using performance communication lexicon Practical design procedures Comparison with current prescriptive approaches New prescriptive procedures

12 ATC-58 Limitations No Basic Research Draw upon and incorporate latest research performed by others Reach engineering consensus as to suitability and appropriate application of available technologies Develop practical guidelines for use in engineering applications
