Performance-based Building Codes

Performance-Based Building Codes is a type of building code framework that specifies desired performance outcomes for building systems, such as structural integrity, fire safety, or accessibility, rather than prescribing specific construction methods, thereby allowing flexibility in design and innovation while ensuring compliance with measurable performance criteria.
