Formalization of built environment
15th and 16th centuries: The
visual appearance, sense of space
and function became a distinct
concern.
17th Century Onwards:
Thinking about the load-
bearing aspects of structures
Late 17th and 18th centuries: Thinking
separately about the role of individual
materials following Galileo's work.
Late 19th and 20th Century:
Aesthetics should be given
proper importance
independent of load-bearing
characteristics of the
structure.

• Shear Design
• Torsion Design
• “Deep” Beams
• Brackets
• Corbels
• Joints
• Pipecaps
• Shear walls
• Transfer girders

Naveed Anwar,AIT
Approach 3 - Limit State Design
• Limit State Design concept is an advancement over both
Working Stress and Ultimate Strength design approaches.
• Attempts to ensures safety at ultimate loads
and serviceability at working loads.
• The basic idea involves the identification of all potential modes
of failure (i.e. identify significant limit states and determination
of acceptable levels of safety against occurrence of each limit
state.
• This philosophy uses more than one safety factors attempting
to provide adequate safety
16
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Limit State Design
17
Types of Limit State Description
Ultimate Limit states • Loss of equilibrium
• Rupture
• Progressive Collapse
• Formation of plastic mechanism
• Instability
• Fatigue
Serviceability limit states • Excessive deflections
• Excessive crack width
• Undesirable Vibration
Special limit states Due to abnormal conditions and abnormal loading such as
• Damage or collapse in extreme earthquakes
• Structural effects of fire, explosion
• Corrosion or deterioration

The Development
and Role of Building
Codes
Naveed Anwar,AIT
The First Building Code: Code of Hammurabi
21
• The earliest known written building code was
the Babylonian law of ancient Mesopotamia
• Also known as the code of King Hammurabi
(who ruled Babylon from 1792 BC to 1750 BC).
• Found in 1901 in Khuzestan, Iran
• Contains detailed accounts of laws pertaining
to builders as well as construction conflicts.
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Code of Hammurabi
22
Clause 229:
If a builder builds a house for someone, and does not construct it
properly, and the house which he built falls in and kills its owner,
then that builder shall be put to death.
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Ancient Building Code: Laws of Moses
23
“In case you build a new
house, you must also make
a parapet for your roof, that
you may not place bloodguilt
upon your house because
someone falling might fall
from it”.
-The Bible, Book of Deuteronomy, Chapter 22,Verse 8

Naveed Anwar,AIT
Are All Buildings Codes Correct ?
• If they differ, can all of them be correct ?
• Did we inform the structures to follow which code when
earthquake strikes ?
• Codes change every 3 or years, should be upgrade our
structures every 3 or 5 years to conform ?
27
Naveed Anwar,AIT 2
Is my Structure safe?
What level of Richter earthquake my structure sustain?
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Prescriptive Codes – A Shelter
• Public:
• Is my structure safe ?
• Structural Engineer:
• Not sure, but I did follow the
“Code”
As long as engineers follow the
code, they can be sheltered by its
provisions
29
Newer Design
Approaches
Primarily geared towards Earthquakes and Extreme Events
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Design for Seismic Resistance and Extreme Events
• Force/stress based design
• Assume reduced forces, limit the stresses
• Displacement based design
• Allow force D/C to exceed, as long as displacements can be limited
• Capacity based design
• Put “fuses” in the structure limit the force capacity, hence the demand
• Energy based design
• Total energy input is collectively resisted by kinetic energy, the elastic
strain energy and energy dissipated through plastic deformations and
damping
31
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Progression of Seismic Resistance Design
32
Historical Approach:
Earthquake forces proportional to
building mass (Vdes = 5 - 10% ofWt),
TraditionalCodes:
Elastic earthquake forces reduced for
linear design (Vdes =Vmax /R)

Building Capacity

Naveed Anwar,AIT

CurrentTrend:

b) Resolution of demand vs. capacity

c) Design based on displacement, ∆des

Naveed Anwar,AIT
Performance Based Design (PBD)
• Explicitly link the performance with earthquake hazard
• Why it was needed?
• Traditional codes not suitable/adequate
• Explicit verification not specified or required in most codes
• Public does not care about the code, or theories or procedures, they
care about “safety” and ‘performance”

How to Work with PBD
40
Requires:
• Detailed modeling
• Nonlinear-dynamic analysis
• Appropriate computing tools,
knowledge, skills and lots of
patience
Naveed Anwar,AIT
AIT’s Focus on PBD
• Considerable research,
development focus on PBD
• Specially targeted to Tall
Buildings and retrofitting of
existing structures
41
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Demand to Capacity Ratio – An Important indicator
• This could apply to
• Forces, actions (Moment, shear, etc)
• Ductility
• Deformations (drift, deflection)
• Indicates the “safety”, “acceptability” as well as “efficiency” of
design
D/C > 1 <Not acceptable, in many cases
D<C < 1 <Acceptable in most cases
D/C =1 <Ideal design, not practical>
0.5 < D/C < 0.9 <Efficient design>
42
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Beyond PBD
• For public, the
performance criteria
still does reduce the
effects of the events
• Insurance companies
want to have greater
reliability of
assessment of risk and
damages
43
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Risk Based Design
• .
44
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Consequence Based Engineering
• It is not enough to say “Cracking and non-structural damge is
acceptable, as long as structure does not collapse”
• A natural extension of the performance-based design
approach
• Structural consequences can be defined in terms of repair
costs, casualties and loss of use duration (dollars, deaths and
downtime) (Porter, 2003).
• Other types of consequences which result from the inherent
function of a structure, are addressed using importance
factors for various occupancy categories in design codes
(Yuxian 2013).
45
Naveed Anwar,AIT
Consequence Based Engineering
• “Structural consequence and non-structural effects”
determined entirely from the analysis of structural member as
well as overall system behavior.
• The consequence-based structural design approach proceeds
through the analysis of expected system consequences,
irrespective of the event triggering these consequences.
• This philosophy requires the structural members to be designed
for variable reliability levels, depending upon their contribution
in causing adverse system consequences.
