This report presents studies on the seismic response of high-rise RC buildings in Japan. Data concerning the seismic response of approximately 600 high-rise RC buildings constructed from 1972 to 2015 were collected. Seismic response characteristics were analyzed by focusing on differences in seismic resistant structures, seismic response control structures, and seismic isolation structures. The results indicated that the maximum story drift ratio response under the level 1 study seismic ground motion (R) and the level 2 study seismic ground motion (R) criteria is smaller for seismic isolation structures than that of the seismic resistant structure and seismic response control structures. In addition, focusing on the R-R relationship, the correlation is low in the seismic resistant and seismic response control structures, but is almost linear in the seismic isolation structure. This is because the seismic isolation structure is designed such that the superstructure does not become plastic even with level 2 seismic ground motion.

This paper presents a vibration control method for multiple high-rise buildings against large earthquake motion. This method is called as “Connected Control Method (CCM)” and has the merit of obtaining enough control force to protect high-rise buildings from large earthquakes using passive and semiactive devices. In this paper, first a modeling approach for four scaled building structures is shown and effectiveness of the CCM using LQ control approach for them is demonstrated by seismic response control results. Next, in order to reduce the supplied power, a semi-active control approach in place of active control is applied for the CCM. For this purpose, a new MR damper is developed and designed to have a close performance with results of the LQ control. This performance is verified by measured frequency responses.
