Lecture Title
Use of PEER Tall Buildings Institute Guidelines for the Seismic Design and Review of Tall and Unique Buildings
Description
This presentation summarizes how the PEER TBI Guidelines are used for the Performance Based Seismic Design of Tall Buildings. This document is widely used in numerous major West Coast cities to allow unique designs that would not be possible to achieve solely by using the prescriptive building code requirements. Examples will be provided of a number of significant projects that have been designed using performance based earthquake engineering concepts.
