Calibration of Equivalent Viscous Damping Expressions for Displacement-Based Design and Application to RC Frames

Equivalent viscous damping plays a central role in displacement-based design procedures. In this paper, approaches for estimating the equivalent viscous damping of RC frame buildings are proposed. At first, the analytical formulation of Blandon and Priestley was analysed, and then a calibration of t...
