This publication has been developed to provide guidance as to how the direct displacement-based design methodology can be codified. It is intended for insertion within the seismic requirements of a code, establishing how design forces can be obtained using a Direct Displacement-Based Design (DDBD) approach. The document has currently been prepared with reference to several clauses of Eurocode 8. This document is presented in a traditional “Code + Commentary” format, on a split two-column page. The commentary aims to generally clarify the code requirements and indicate references where the background and further discussion on the requirements can be found.

Abstract
This publication has been developed to provide guidance as to how the direct displacement-based design methodology can be codified. It is intended for insertion within the seismic requirements of a code, establishing how design forces can be obtained using a Direct Displacement-Based Design (DDBD) approach. The document has currently been prepared with reference to several clauses of Eurocode 8. This document is presented in a traditional “Code + Commentary” format, on a split two-column page. The commentary aims to generally clarify the code requirements and indicate references where the background and further discussion on the requirements can be found.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
