Abstract
The work herein presented is devoted to the validation of TPMC design procedure applied to steel MRFs equipped with FREEDAM dampers located at beam-to-column joints. The seismic performances evaluations of the designed structure have been carried out by means of both Push-over analysis and Incremental Dynamic Analysis. In particular, the Push-over analysis aims to confirm the real development of a collapse mechanism of global type, while, through IDA analysis, Maximum Interstorey Drift and Top Residual Displacement performed by the designed structures have been pointed out. For this reason, a MRF whose design procedure by TPMC is detailed in a companion paper has been subjected to both push-over and IDA analysis.
