In the current design code, verification of eccentricity ratio Re is required, which represents appropriate distribution of shear walls. The limitation of Re contributes to prevention of torsional vibration. However, damping performance is affected by distribution of dampers in the plan because the energy dissipation of each damper is clearly related to deformation mode of the structure. In this paper, the verification method of appropriate distribution of energy dissipation walls to wooden house is proposed. The accuracy of the method is confirmed by numerical simulations considering various kind of parameters with wide range.
