Seismic Performance of Building with Base Isolation, Damper and Braced System

Abstract

Non-structural components are sensitive to large ground motion which produces floor accelerations, velocities, and displacements. During an earthquake, the building produces this motion, resulting in peak floor accelerations higher than the peak ground acceleration. Thus earthquake ground motion can cause significant or severe structural damages. Therefore the needs of structural response control system increase worldwide. These paper deals with review of structures with some most worldwide used structural system such as base isolation, damper and bracing. Paper also comprises recent development in these control systems with their structural reduction efficiency
