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 triple steel tubes, and its excellent mechanical characteristics under the both tension and compression loading had been confirmed in our previous papers by the full-scale tests. This paper shows the results of full-scale cyclic tests, and confirmed the scope of application on this damper with slit holes.
