| Abstract | There are many passive energy dissipating devices which are designed to dissipate earth- quake energy in a structure. Metallic yielding dampers is one of these devices which is very efficient as they dissipate seismic input energy through a hysteretic behavior. This re- search has used ETABS software to analyze the performance of Round hole metallic yielding damper. The storey response data obtained from the analysis are storey displacement, storey drift and storey shear. Damper has four types of material; 3 plates of A992 steel (3A992), 8 plates of A992 steel(8A992), 3 plates of Aluminum(3AI) and 8 plates of Aluminum(8Al). Concentrically braced frames with Chevron bracing were used and the dampers were placed in brace to beam orientation in each frame. The two types of frames analyzed was; high rise building with twenty stories. The site location for structure was in the region of California in the United States of America. The structure was analyzed by subjecting them to seven earth- quakes Cape Mendocino, Imperial Valley, Kern Country, Landers, Lorna Prieta, Northridge and San Fernando as they were seven of the major earthquakes that struck California in the nineties. |
