This paper focuses on the application of performance‐based design to a tall eccentrically braced frame (EBF) structure. The height of the structure exceeds that permitted by the International Building Code for braced frames, and a dual system would typically be required. It was argued that better, more cost‐effective seismic performance could be obtained using an all‐braced frame scheme. Project‐specific performance and analysis criteria were developed limiting overall story drift and link rotation demand. EBF link models used recently completed research to calibrate behavior, particularly that associated with estimating link overstrength in thick‐flanged link beams. Key findings include more realistic column axial load demands than would have been predicted using current AISC 341 Seismic Provisions as well as improved EBF strength distribution throughout the height of the building to delay formation of story mechanisms.
