Abstract:A damped outrigger system (DO) has been proposed to enhance the seismic performance, in which links between outriggers and perimeter columns are artificially disconnected and implemented by dampers. Such an operation essentially destroys the structural integrity and becomes a potential threat for structural safety. Moreover, its performance is very sensitive to the stiffness of perimeter columns. In this study, a mega-sub controlled system is employed to propose a novel outrigger system, i.e., a damped substru… Show more
