What is Performance-Based Approach in Seismic Design of Embedded Retaining Walls about?

ABSTRACT The common procedure used in the seismic design of earth retaining systems is based on a force-balance, assuming a limit equilibrium condition of the soil masses interacting with the wall. It does not provide any information on the performance of the structure if the limit values of the strengths are exceeded. In the Performance-Based Design philosophy, the response of the construction, both in terms of stresses in the structural elements and displacements in the soils should be described by predic
