Performance Based Design for Beginners Basic Concepts and Applications

Подробнее о видео

Join us for an introductory session on Performance-Based Design (PBD) tailored for beginners. This webinar will explore the fundamental concepts and applications of PBD in the design of G+2 reinforced concrete structures, following the guidelines of FEMA 356, ASCE 41-17, and ATC 40.

We will begin with an overview of performance-based design principles, focusing on structural behavior, nonlinear analysis techniques, and performance objectives. Participants will gain insights into how PBD differs from traditional prescriptive methods and why it is essential for designing structures that can withstand seismic forces effectively.

The session will then introduce pushover analysis and nonlinear time history analysis, demonstrating their practical applications using ETABS.

Key takeaways from this webinar
🔹Structural modeling for PBD, including material properties and section definitions
🔹Load patterns and performance objectives based on FEMA 356 and ASCE 41-17
🔹Pushover analysis: step-by-step implementation and interpretation of results
🔹Evaluating structural performance and retrofitting strategies
