Abstract:Herein, the parametric modeling method was employed in the analysis and design of damping structures. An optimal damper arrangement scheme was developed by presetting objectives and iterative optimization calculations for the energy dissipation structure of a B-level high-rise residential building in Tianshui City. Perform 3D and ETABS software were used to analyze the structural response during frequent and rare earthquakes to assess the seismic performance of the energy dissipation structure. The analysis results show that during small earthquakes, the story displacement, story drift ratio, story moment, and story shear of the energy dissipation structure are reduced by >6.5%, which meets the design requirements. During large earthquakes, the frame columns, frame beams, shear walls, and viscous dampers of the structure can meet the requirements of performance-based design, and the story drift ratio can meet the code limit. Accordingly, the structure can achieve the design goal of “no collapse during large earthquakes.” This study provides a reference for preset damping targets and the optimal layout of dampers in practical applications.
