| Abstract | California regions are affected with that the thousands of earthquakes could be experienced per year where large amounts of damage with loss of life and also economically takes place. In concentrically braced frames energy is dissipated by buckling of the brace and also brace yielding in seismic loading, wind loading, which in term means that plastic deformation takes place and high maintenance would require. Relatively by the use of viscoelastic damping systems there would be a reduction in the structure maintenance due to its deformity in course of a seismic and wind activities. The following study was targeted to confirm this statement, to find out a suitable pattern to add viscoelastic dampers to high- rise building with three different bracing types and three different bracing locations. |
