Evaluation of story response in seismic prone building construction using high damping rubber bearing

Abstract: Significantly growing construction in the earthquake vulnerable regions needs appropriate handling of seismic prone buildings. Insertion of high damping rubber bearing (HDRB) at the building base might be an attractive option for structural safety and economy. This study deals with incorpo...
