Abstract

This paper presents the seismic performance of wood construction with oil-dampers. Shaking table tests were conducted to evaluate a seismic behavior during moderate and severe earthquakes and shear wall test of oil-damper was also conducted to compare the shear performance with wood shear wall. As the result of tests, the shear wall with oil-damper reduced the maximum response by 20-50% and absorbed energy as twice as plywood shear wall.
