Displacement-based Design<br />

• Two performance levels:<br />

• Immediate occupancy in frequently occurring<br />

earthquakes<br />

• Limited yielding (1% tensile strain maximum)<br />

• Limiting interstory drift ratio<br />

• Life-safety in rare earthquakes (10% in 50)<br />

• Tensile strains less than 5% compressive strain less<br />

than 1%
