Worldover, seismic design of buildings typically follows a prescriptive approach in which designers conform to a series of prescriptive code requirements in terms of both analysis and design procedures. Even though this prescriptive seismic design approach is time-tested and easily understandable by structural designers. In the recent past, performance-based seismic design has started to gain traction among structural designers. The performance-based seismic design allows designers to set performance objectives and design buildings to meet the targeted performance criteria. Due to its flexible nature, performance-based design has proven extremely useful for critical and lifeline buildings like hospitals and tall buildings. With a focus placed on performance objectives, designers utilizing performance-based seismic design are proficient in designing code exceeding buildings efficiently. Despite these cited benefits, performance-based design is still considered an uncommon practice in structural design, particularly in the developing countries. Hence, the present study aims to provide an overview and framework to practice performance-based seismic design. This work identifies and discusses the key differences between the prescriptive- and performance-based seismic design methods and also addresses the significance, application and implementation of performance-based seismic design of buildings. This paper makes an original contribution to the literature through a critical review of how the performance-based design withholds the opportunity to elevate the role of the structural engineers to which they are informed members of the community, where the structures they create not only perform according to design prescriptions, but also perform according to the needs of the owners, engineers, and society.
