Perform 3D is a software briefing for nonlinear analysis and analysis of earthquake-resistant building structures. This software was developed by Computers and Structures Company, which is dedicated to design and software related to structures and earthquakes. According to old Laser rules, earthquake resistant structures are based on linear and elastic stress-based analysis of strength and strength but since they are commonly used in strong earthquakes, non-elastic functions are therefore very unrealistic. For this reason, new regulations for the resilience of structures to bring about a shift-based approach. The design based on the shift noted that in strong earthquakes, deformation of nonresponsive structures is much more important than the strength and strength parameter. Perform 3D is a software that allows you to design earthquake resistant structures based on the shift approach.

Although this software complies with the ASCE 41 Code for building retrofitting, this does not mean that it is limited to these regulations. Perform 3D is a comprehensive software for designing structures based on displacement. This application has powerful capabilities for non-elastic or hard analysis. If you do not know how your structure works against strong earthquakes, 3D Performance can help you identify structural weaknesses and help improve design. Keep in mind, however, that this software is not designed to get you through design analysis, this software is a powerful tool for implementing sketch-based designs and maximizing the benefits of structure, and ultimately helping you design a better design. But this software will never engineer you.

CSI PERFORM-3D v6.0具有强大的非常弹性分析能力，但不适用于通用目的的非线性分析。如果你不知道结构在强震中变得无弹性时如何表现，PERFORM-3D可以帮助你识别，进而指导你改进设计。然而PERFORM-3D v6.0不适用于“通过分析的设计”，工程师期望分析能够准确确定结构的行为方式。PERFORM-3D是实现基于位移的设计和容量设计的强大工具。 它将帮助你生产更好的设计。

地震地面运动结构的响应，无论是弹性还是非弹性，都是非常不确定的。容量设计通过控件故意行为，提供了一种合理的方式来改进在一个强震中一个结构的响应。 容量设计通过仅在设计者选择的位置允许非弹性行为来控制结构的非弹性行为。在这些位置中，结构部件被设计为具有延展性。 结构的其余部分基本上保持弹性，并且可以具有较小的延展性。 以这种方式控制行为提高了可靠性，减少了损坏量，并且可以降低建造成本。 PERFORM-3D允许您应用容量设计原。
