A Simple Design Procedure of Seismic Reinforcement Structure with Mild Steel Dampers

Abstract:

This paper presents a reinforcement design of five-story R/C structure with mild steel dampers in high seismic fortification intensity site. The details of the design process are listed in the paper, and the time history analyses under frequent and rare earthquake are performed on structure models with and without dampers. Through the comparison, the peak of maximum story drifts angles with damper-added structural is reduced by 38% and the distribution is more uniformly. The results show that energy-dissipation design with mild steel dampers can be a reliable and effective method in reducing seismic responses of reinforcement structure.
