The buckling-restrained braces using the steel mortal planks (BRBSM) is applied to reinforced concrete structure (RC structure). In general, it is difficult to design and construction for buildings that integrated RC structure with the buckling-restrained braces. Therefore, in this paper, we report the anchor-less structural system using bedplates and wedges. Structural performance of this system is confirmed by the experiments using specimens of low strength type and high strength type. According to the tests, the effectiveness of this system is verified. However, the improvement of the steel frame is necessary to more follow for the deformation of the RC structure.
