Abstract
The paper analyses the behavior of concentrically braced steel structures equipped with friction dampers in the bracing. Experimental tests were conducted in order to determine the parameters of this type of damper needed to construct and implement an equivalent hysteretic model to be used in numerical simulations. The experimental tests were conducted on two series of braces having different design concepts: the first series of tests on braces designed to remain in elastic domain and a second series of tests on braces that undergo plastic deformations but only after the damper reaches its full displacement capacity. The results were compared with the experimental data on braces without dampers.
