2 Excellence the quality of being outstanding or extremely good 2

3 To be Excellent, something must be above average, better than standard, and of higher performance 3

4 What a Structural Engineer said! Hardy Cross,

5 Building Industry relies on Codes and Standards Specify requirements Give acceptable solutions Prescribe (detailed) procedures, rules, limits Mostly based on experience and not always rational Spirit of the code to provide Public Safety and Convenience Compliance to letter of the code is indented to meet the spirit 5

6 The First Code - Hammurabi's (1772 BC) Implicit Requirements Explicit Collapse Performance Consequence of non-performance Clause 229: If a builder builds a house for someone, and does not construct it properly, and the house which he built falls in and kills its owner, then that builder shall be put to death. 6

7 Public Safety and the Codes In case you build a new house, you must also make a parapet for your roof, that you may not place bloodguilt upon your house because someone falling might fall from it - Prescriptive Modern Codes, c2000 Ref: Teh Kem, Associate Prof. NUS Performance Oriented Law of Moses (1300 BC) The Bible, Book of Deuteronomy, Chapter 22, Verse 8 7

8 Formal, Modern Buildings Codes Rebuilding of London Act after the Great Fire of London in 1666 AD. In 1680 AD, The Laws of Indies Spanish Crown London Building Act of In USA, the City of Baltimore first building code in In 1904, a Handbook of the Baltimore City In 1908, a formal building code was drafted and adopted. The Internatio nal Building Code (IBC) by (ICC). European Union, the Eurocodes. 8

9 Ancient masterpieces were built before the modern codes Master builders had freedom to dream and to realize them 9

10 Public Safety and Disaster Resilience

11 Lack of Resources for Communities Population Natural or Man-made Phenomena Inappropriate Built Environment Urbanization and Unplanned development Disaster Hazard Vulnerability Exposure Risk To reduce risk of disaster and increase safety, we need tp estimate hazard properly, and Reduce Vulnerability 11

12 How modern codes intent to ensure Safety Define appropriate/estimated hazard or load levels Prescribe limits on structural systems, members, materials Define procedures for analysis and design Provide rules for detailing Provide specifications for construction and monitoring Hope that all of this will lead to reduced vulnerability and safer structures 12

13 The Modern Codes With intent to make buildings safe for public (ACI ) Extremely Detailed prescriptions and equations using seemingly arbitrary, rounded limits with implicit meaning (IS ) 13

14 The General Structural Code Families UBC, IBC ACI, PCI, CRSI, ASCE, AISI, AASHTO BS, SG, IS, MNBC, NBC, PBC,. Euro-codes China, USSR, Japan 14

15 Prescriptive Codes A Shelter Public Will the building be safe? Owner Will the building collapse/ will it be damaged? Can I use the building after a given earthquake? How much will repair cost? How long will it take to repair? Can I make building that will not be damaged and will not collapse Structural Engineer: Not sure, but I did follow the Code As long as engineers follow the code, they can be sheltered by its provisions 15

16 A Move Towards Performance Based Prescriptive Codes restrict and discourage innovation Objective Requirements Prescribed Solution Performance Based approach encourages and liberates it Objective Requirements Alternate Solution 16

17 Motivation for PBD Lack of explicit performance in design codes is primary motivation for performance based design Performance based methods require the designer to assess how a building is likely perform extreme events and their correct application will help to identify unsafe designs. Enables arbitrary restrictions to be lifted and provides scope for the development of innovative, safer and more cost-effective solutions 17

18 Ensuring Explicit Safety Performance (And increase Disaster Resilience)

19 Common Hazards leading to Safety Concerns 19

23 Earthquakes as a Catalyst for PBD Performance based design can be applied to any type of loads, but was initaily developed and targeted for earthquake loads 23

24 Explicit Performance Objective in PBD Performance based design investigates at least two performance objectives explicitly Service-level Assessment Codes arbitrary implicit Design Level Collapse-level Assessment Ensure continuity of service for frequent hazards (Earthquake having a return period of about 50) Ensure Collapse prevention under extreme hazards (the largest earthquake with a return period of 2500 years) 24

25 Performance Level Definitions Owner Engineer Will the building be safe? Can I use the building after the hazard? How much will repair cost in case of damage? Free to choose solutions, but ensure amount of yielding, buckling, cracking, permanent deformation, acceleration, that structure, members and materials experiences How long will it take to repair? Need a third party to ensure public safety and realistic Performance Guidelines Peer Review 25

26 Performance Objectives fro Sesimic Design Level of Earthquake Seismic Performance Objective Frequent/Service (SLE): 50% probability of exceedance in 30 years (43-year return period) Serviceability: Structure to remain essentially elastic with minor damage to structural and non-structural elements Design Basis Earthquake (DBE): 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years (475-year return period) Code Level: Moderate structural damage; extensive repairs may be required Maximum Considered Earthquake (MCE): 2% probability of exceedance in 50 years (2475-year return period) Collapse Prevention: Extensive structural damage; repairs are required and may not be economically feasible 26
