Overstrength Design

Overstrength Design is a structural design approach within seismic engineering that belongs to the class of capacity-based design methods, distinguished by its deliberate incorporation of higher-than-nominal strength in specific structural elements to ensure that inelastic deformation and energy dissipation occur in designated ductile regions while preventing premature failure in others.
