| Abstract: | This paper offers a synthesis of specification-based versus
performance-based civil engineering and articulates the
committee’s progress in framing and articulating: “what is
performance-based civil engineering?”, “how can we objectively
define performance?” and, “what are the issues that should be
recognized along our way to performance-based engineering and
their possible resolutions? |
| Description: | This draft report has been completed and circulated within the
committee and Performance of Structures TAC members, steps
have been taken to merge the Performance-Based Design and
Evaluation of Civil Engineering Facilities Committee with the
Performance of Full-Scale Structures Committee. This merger
took place during the 2004 Congress and a critical mass of
academic and practicing members continue exploring how to
innovate the art of civil engineering by taking advantage of the
performance-based engineering paradigm. |
