Smart and intelligent buildings with seismic control devices for reducing the earthquake responses and damages were recently practically applied for many projects. The authors have been proposed the new hysteresis damper of the buckling-restrained brace with steel bar. This paper has been confirmed hysteretic performance by the test of proposed damper. And the results of the tests showed excellent deformation capacity under the both tension and compression loading.
