Capacity Design

Capacity Design is a structural engineering methodology within seismic design that belongs to the class of performance-based design strategies, distinguished by its principle of deliberately controlling the failure mechanism of a structure to ensure that plastic hinges form in predetermined ductile elements while maintaining the elastic behavior of brittle components.
