Abstract

Design Methodology for Direct Displacement Based Design (DDBD) Method proposed by Priestley et
al.(2007) has been presented here in IS context as an alternative to conventional Forced Based Design (FBD). The
limitations of Force Based Design Method are highlighted. The paper attempts to design a 15 storey Reinforced
Concrete Moment Resisting frame located in Zone-V using DDBD Method. Base shear, storey shear, beam
reinforcement, percentage of column steel for frame designed by DDBD are compared to conventional FBD and
concluding remarks are highlighted which shows that DDBD can be a viable design alternate.
