Analysis of Performance Test Result of a Rectangular Tuned Liquid Damper by Direction of Wind

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study conducted a vibration table excitation test in order to evaluate performance of a tuned liquid damper (TLD), which was installed for vibration attenuation in a high-rise building, according to its installation direction. The TLD's base shear force and wave height characteristics changed according to excitation direction. When the excitation direction of the TLD was lower than 45 degrees, base shear force and wave height were the same as excitation direction at zero degree. However, when the excitation direction was 45 degrees or higher, base shear force and wave height were affected by excitation amplitude at 5mm or larger.
