Braced Oil Dampers For Buildings

Oil Damper Vibration Control Systems Are Being Used In Buildings Increasingly. Their High Damping Force Offers Relative Safety During Earthquakes And At A Low Environmental Cost. They Are Connected Using Braces In Series And Installed With Pins To The Building Structure, Which Minimises Impact On The Building Structure, And Enables Installation And Removal. This Is The First Book Detailing Experimental Work And Case Studies. It Details Testing And Analysis When Placed At Braced Positions And When Exposed To Small Amplitude Vibration. It Suits Students And Junior Structural Design Engineers As Well As Specialist-- Provided By Publisher.
