In this paper, a performance-based seismic design procedure, which is directly associated with pre-quantified performance criteria, is presented by employing a displacement-based approach. A lower bound of yielding displacement of the structure to satisfy these performance criteria is proposed. The
Current US seismic guidelines indicate that ground acceleration of 0.10g or greater is likely to produce plastic structural response, yet they require that an elastic seismic analysis be performed for all multi-span bridges located in regions deemed likely to sustain such ground acceleration. The re
