Table 1: Synthesis of damage state definitions from the literature.

Damage state Description Associated performance level Drift
(from [2])
Displacement from pushover curve
(from [23, 24])
Shear resistance criteria
(from [5])
DS1 Negligible structural damage; low non-structural damage Immediate occupancy 1‰ 0.7Δy first pier attaining its maximum shear
DS2 Minor structural damage and/or moderate non-structural damage Damage limitation 0.7Δy+5(Δu- 0.7Δy)/100 weighted story drift equals value at the attainment of
maximum base shear
DS3 Significant structural damage and extensive non-structural damage. Life safety 3‰ 0.7Δy+20(Δu-0.7Δy)/100 20% degradation in maximum base shear capacity
DS4 Collapse; repairing the building is not feasible. Collapse prevention 5‰ Δu -
