Earthquake Response Study of Multi-Storied RCC Building with AMD

Abstract

Damping performs essential function in format of earthquake resistant structures, which lower the change of the shape when they are subjected to lateral loads or earthquake. In the existing study accordion mass dampers (AMD) are used to consider the response of RCC buildings. In order to make structure earthquake resistant, (AMD) have been used. The building is modeled in ETAB 2018 and modeled with different location of AMD. After the study results show building having AMD on outer side shows better performance than building having other location of accordion mass damper.
