JSSI MANUAL FOR BUILDING PASSIVE CONTROL TECHNOLOGYPART-2 CRITERIA FOR IMPLEMENTATION OFENERGY DISSIPATION DEVICES

摘要

This paper introduces the efforts being made by the Japan Society of Seismic Isolation Response ControlCommittee toward development of a manual for the design and construction of passively-controlledbuildings. The contents of the manual corresponding to the principle and mechanism, design, fabrication,testing, and quality control of various types of passive control devices are described in this paper. Thecontents were developed by the researchers and the engineers of software, construction, and designcompanies.The present paper (Part 2) introduces the manual contents regarding analytical modeling for loaddeformationrelationship of damping devices. It also explains another part of the manual referring to themechanical, chemical, and environmental characteristics as well as acceptable range and quality of eachdevice type. Manual policies on declaration of device property, assurance of device quality, andmaintenance for long-term use will be explained.
