Even in current times, there are some people too confused 
about the significance of Performance Based Design for the 
structural projects. Let us discuss what it is, why it is 
necessary, and the confusions that people have in mind.

Why is it Necessary?
It provides a framework for considering the potential hazards to structural 
building. Some experts work and provide PBD solutions. They utilize 
Structural Design Software programs, which help them in getting accurate 
design results. They get to use such features and functions in software 
such as calculators, building codes, and 3D models to understand and 
work on integrated structural design and analysis.

The Confusions or the Misconceptions about PBD
 
The majority of people, including professionals from the construction & building industry, property dealers & owners, 
understand the importance of PBD. Still, some people have misconceptions about PBD. 
• Primarily, they think it is a fancy thing. It is not at all any fancy procedures. Considering the contemporary 
circumstances, right from the natural environment to geographical conditions, it is necessary to include 
performance-based design. 
 
• People think that this is expensive. Well, building a structure is a grand investment. Making sure that it meets all 
parameters of safety and security of people in and around it, other properties in and around it; is essential. 
Performance Based Design solutions offer a holistic and integrated approach that can see buildings meet optimum 
standards rather than just minimum ones.
