A hybrid force/displacement (HFD) performance-based seismic design method is proposed for two types of plane reinforced concrete structures, i.e., infilled moment-resisting frames (I-MRFs) and wall-frame dual systems (WFDS). The HFD seismic design method is a force-based method which controls with high accuracy both structural and non-structural deformation limits. The behavior factor is related here to the inter-storey drift ratio and the member plastic rotation by taking into account both geometrical and dynamic structural characteristics. The HFD is herein developed through an extensive parametrical study involving non-linear time-history analyses of 19 I-MRFs, and 19 WFDS under 100 far-fault ground motions.
