This paper surveys the rapidly growing field of performance-based wind engineering (PBWE) of engineered systems, with focus on not only how PBWE has evolved since its early incarnations inspired by performance-based seismic engineering, but also the unique challenges of PBWE and the research that continues to emerge to tackle them.The limitations o
