Abstract

During post-earthquake requirement the staging of elevated water tanks are considered as essential structures. Failure of staging leads to collapse of watertank so required to control the vibration of staging. In This paper elevated circular tank supported with frame was modeled to control the vibration of staging. Non-linear dynamic analysis (time-history analysis) was performed on model by using SAP-2000 software to study the seismic behaviour. The additional dissipation of energy occurs by using damper constitute an effective technique for the earthquake reduction of staging members and In this study an attempt has been made to use the X-plate metallic steel damper for reducing the seismic response.
