Assessment of Multi-storied RC Framed Structure Using Passively Damped Viscous Dampers

Abstract

The main aim of this study was to analyze 10-storied structure by using dampers and without dampers for the performance of building including different cases like changing the position of dampers, changing the number of dampers, and analyze the seismic performance of the structure. Also the performance should be calculated on the basis of changing damping ratio. In the present paper, study of nonlinear dynamic analysis of 10-storied RCC building is considered. The building under consideration is modeled with the help of SAP-2000 software. Time history analysis is performed on the basis of different ground motion records. Nonlinear analysis is considered for the performance of seismic analysis of the structure. Story displacement, maximum bending, and shear force calculated on the basis of nonlinear analysis of the structure. It is observed that the change in position of dampers will also give better results for improving the performance of structure.
