Abstract

In performance-based design, the structure is designed to behave linearly elastic without damage under a moderate frequent earthquake and to undergo repairable damage under a rare strong earthquake. Design earthquakes are specified in current seismic codes as single events. However, the structure may experience repeated accelerations in a short period of time. Ground accelerations of multiple sequences could result in more damage to the structure than a single ordinary event.
