The Performance-Based Seismic Design (PBSD) is an advanced approach to designing earthquake-resistant structures, ensuring that a building meets specific performance objectives under seismic impacts. Unlike traditional design codes, PBSD aims to predict and control the damage to structures based on defined earthquake levels, minimizing damage and repair costs after an earthquake.
