Seismic Design Spectra for FrictionDamped Structures

Abstract

A simplified seismic design procedure is proposed for structures equipped with an innovative frictiondamping system. The system has been shown experimentally to perform very well and could represent a major new development in earthquakeresistant design. This paper first presents an efficient modeling approach for the seismic analysis and design of frictiondamped structures. The hysteretic properties of the friction dampers are derived …
