PERFORMANCE BASED STRUCTURAL DESIGN OF 200M HIGH-RISE BUILDING USING HYSTERESIS STEEL DAMPERS

Abstract

In designing a high-rise building of about 200m-high, the authors set the objective performance as concrete as possible. The authors implemented verification tests at the design phase to obtain necessary data in performance based structural design. This study first outlines the established structural objective performances, and the design principles to realize the performances. Then, it further outlines the damage control design using hysteresis steel damper adopted for seismic element, and the experimental study implemented.
