Abstract
<p>The framework for the performance-based seismic design of bridges that was developed for the 2014 Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CSA S6-14) is presented. Three different earthquake return period motions are used for the analysis and the seismic hazard, site classifications and site coefficients developed for the 2015 National Building Code of Canada are used. Different seismic analysis procedures are used to predict the performance for the different levels of seismic input motions. Performance levels are prescribed to satisfy the required service states and damage states. Performance criteria, commensurate with the damage levels are given. The advantages of the performance-based design approach for the design of new bridges as well as the evaluation and retrofit of existing bridges are presented.</p>

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
