Atc-58-Ii Further Development of Next Generation Performance-Based Design Criteria

Abstract eng:
In 2012, the Applied Technology Council (ATC) completed the first phase of its ATC-58 Project with publication of the FEMA P-58 Next-Generation Seismic Performance Assessment Methodology. Shortly thereafter, ATC initiated work on a second Project phase intended to enable practical implementation of the methodology on seismic design and retrofitting projects. Major enhancements include improvement of the fragility library; calibration and benchmarking of results against actual building performance in earthquakes; development of simplified design aides to enable practical use in design; implementation of an environmental consequences module, cooperation with private software developers to allow enhancement of available applications software; and, outreach to stakeholders and decision makers to understand how the methodology can best be used to address their needs. Significant improvements to usability and usefulness have resulted.
