Goal of Project
• Develop framework for evaluation of load and resistance factors for pile foundation design using PEER PBEE concepts
• Framework is to allow design for pile cap movement (vertical, horizontal, rocking) based on design return period for limit state exceedance in any seismic environment
• Put framework in format where DOT foundation engineers can investigate effects of various assumptions regarding uncertainties on load and resistance factors
• Framework will be used in AASHTO code development process to illustrate benefits of PBEE approach to load and resistance factor development

Current LRFD Procedure (simplified)
• Develop design spectrum
• Perform structural analyses
• Check that capacity > demand for structure
• Design foundationsApply forces from structural analysis to foundationCheck foundation capacity
Maximum force(s) < available resistance(s)Maximum displacement(s) < allowable displacement(s)
– for selected return period

Performance-based framework
• Capacity and demand factors can be obtained from Cornell idealization assumptions
• Process requires hazard curve and ability to predict response given ground motion level, i.e.
EDP | IM
where EDP = pile cap displacement / rotation
IM = Sa(To), etc.

Complicating Factors
All sites are different
Conditions favoring end-bearing piles
Conditions favoring friction piles
Geometric and material variability / uncertainty
Checking procedures needed
Must be simple, straightforward
Force-based – check force demands against capacities
Displacement-based – check displ. demands against allowable displacements
To advance practice, procedures must be displacement-based
Design should imply certain reliability w/r/t exceedance of displ level

Performance-Based Framework
How do we take advantage of a performance-based framework in development of load and resistance factors?
We need to be able to predict a hazard curve for the EDPs of interest, which will consist of pile cap displacements/rotations
Normally, we predict EDPs from ground motion intensity measures
Response model – includes soil,
foundations, and bridge
