, 2016 The SFPE Engineering Guide to Performance-Based Fire Protection [1] defines performance-based design as “an engineering approach to fire protection design based on (1) agreed upon fire safety goals and objectives, (2) deterministic and/or probabilistic analysis of fire scenarios, and (3) quantitative assessment of design alternatives against the fire ...

Performative Practices: Architecture and Engineering in the 21st Century, 2011 Michalatos and Kaijima underline in their paper ‘Structural Information as Material for Design’ (2007) the importance to approach an informed design consistency and respect the “criteria of efficiency, architectural intentions as well as intrinsic properties of the geometry” rather than simple structural optimization of a certain design.

Practical Design and Performance Based Regulations.
Fire Science and Technology, 1998 The paper presents a sample design of a multi-storey building with respect to the fire safety. Three design strategies are examined, a standard solution according to the requirements, a fire safety engineering design without a sprinkler system and finally a fire safety engineering design with a sprinkler system.

Performance Based Seismic Design
International Journal of Advance Innovations, Thoughts & Ideas, 2015 Performance-based seismic design, which is a relatively new concept, came into existence as a means to ascertain the likely performance of an existing building structure during an earthquake. However, this approach is equally applicable to new buildings being designed.

A Performance-Based Paradigm of Design [PDF]
, 1996 This paper proposes an alternative approach to existing design paradigms (and their CAD implementations) that are based on the traditional, causality-based notion that ‘Form follows Function.’ The proposed approach, which will be referred to as performance-based design, is founded on the argument that the relationship between form and function is ...

PERFORMANCE-BASED SEISMIC DESIGN OF A RETAINING WALL [PDF]
Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering (COMPDYN 2013), 2014 The design of containment walls suffering seismic loads traditionally has been realized with methods based on pseudoanalitic procedures such as Mononobe-Okabe's method, which it has led in certain occasions to insecure designs, that they have produced the ruin of many containment walls suffering the action of an earthquake. The recommendations gathered
