A Simple Analysis Method for Estimation of Required Damping Ratio for Seismic Response Reduction

This paper proposes a simple analysis method to estimate the additional damping ratio required to achieve a target seismic performance level. The proposed method employs the Newmark and Hall′s design response spectrum and the simple version of the N2 method. With the help of combining the characteri...
