Abstract
Applying the Calculation of Response and Limit Strength provided in the Building Standard Law Enforcement Order of Japan, a nonlinear static analysis procedure for evaluating the seismic performance of multi-story buildings with response control devices (RCD) is proposed in this paper. Time history earthquake response analysis and pushover analysis for 12 story RC buildings with RCD of 6 types are executed to examine the accuracy of the proposed procedure for predicting the earthquake responses. A method to consider the higher mode effect for the proposed procedure is also discussed.
