Slotted-bolted friction damper as a seismic energy dissipator in a braced timber frame

Creator:

Tjahyadi, Alfred

Abstract:

Friction dampers have been used successfully to dissipate seismic energy in steel and concrete structures. The application is new to timber structures. The objectives of this research were to design a slotted bolted connection (SBC) and evaluate its potential as a passive energy damper in timber brace. The research was...
