description Abstract This paper describes investigations in respect of the seismic performance of a large-span high-rise building in a mountainous area. The building consists of a 135 m high shear wall structure and a 174.5 m long steel truss structure, with dampers used to enhance the seismic performance. A 1/40 scale model of the prototype structure was designed, and shaking table tests was conducted. The experiments simulated the wave passage effect and slope amplification effect based on the building site and structural characteristics of the prototype structure. The seismic performance of the prototype structure was analyzed through the damage phenomenon, dynamic characteristics, and dynamic response of the model under earthquake effects. The results show that three seismic waves were delayed by about 0.4 s and amplified by about 1.6 times after passing through the steel frame with viscous dampers, which could effectively simulate the wave passage effect and slope amplification effect in the test. The maximum story drift ratios of the model shear wall structure and steel truss structure were 1/1258 and 1/455 for the SLE and 1/568 and 1/185 for the MCE. The damping devices played a key role in energy dissipation. As a result, this research provides a reference for the seismic design and shaking table testing of large-span high-rise buildings.
