Part of the book series: Geotechnical, Geological, and Earthquake Engineering ((GGEE,volume 17))

Abstract

Analysis procedures developed in the last two decades for performance-based seismic assessment and retrofit design of building structures are critically evaluated. Nonlinear analysis procedures within the framework of deformation-based seismic assessment process are classified with respect nonlinear modeling and acceptance criteria. The critical transition from linear engineering to nonlinear, performance-based engineering practice is addressed. Specifically, the need for enhancing engineers’ knowledge on nonlinear behavior and analysis methods in university education and professional training is highlighted. Rigorous as well as practice-oriented nonlinear analysis procedures based on pushover analysis are treated where special emphasis is given to the latter. All significant pushover analysis procedures developed in the last two decades are summarized and systematically assessed on the basis of a common terminology and notation. Each procedure is evaluated in terms of its practical use as a capacity estimation tool versus capacity-and-demand estimation tool.
