Towards New Generation of Seismic Design Methodologies for Performance-based Design

성능기초설계를 위한 차세대 내진설계의 방향

Performance-based design concepts require the next generation of codes. To implement the main concepts several design methodologies have been proposed. This paper reviews the framework of Korea Seismic Code and shows necessary modification for adoption of appropriate design methods. The selection of design earthquake levels with the introduction of risk factor is discussed for proper risk levels for all earthquake hazards. Displacement-based design, energy-based design, comprehensive design, and force-strength design methods are reviewed as one of possible next generation design methods. This paper proposes the direction of reconstruction for design earthquake levels with performance matrix, introduction of new design methods, and emphasis on non- structural components.
