Two-Stage Design Method for Multi-Story Structures Equipped Metal Dampers, Part II: Case Study

Article Preview

Abstract:

The two-stage design method for multi-story structures equipped metal dampers is put forward based on the Code for Seismic Design of Buildings (GB50011-2010) and the Code of Japan Society of Seismic Isolation. For preliminary design stage, simplified method is adopted to estimate added stiffness and damping on each story, offering an approximate requirement of dampers. For detail design, the time history analysis is employed to verify the performance of structure with added dampers and determine number of energy dissipation device. In this part, a 10-story frame is analyzed by the new method, and the numerical investigation shows that the new method is simple and flexible for application in engineering.
