Performance-based design (PBD) is reshaping the future of building safety by focusing on achieving specific safety outcomes rather than adhering strictly to traditional prescriptive codes. This innovative approach allows designers to use advanced simulations, risk assessments, and performance goals to create safer, more adaptable structures. This session will explore how performance-based design is enabling a shift toward more resilient and sustainable buildings, while still meeting or exceeding safety standards.
