VIBRATION DAMPING WALL STRUCTURE AND A METHOD OF CONNECTING VIBRATION DAMPING DEVICES

摘要

A robust vibration damping device not suffering from destruction even when an earthquake force is increased.;A vibration damping wall structure includes a structural frame comprising a foundation, a beam, and vertical members. One set of vibration damping devices are attached to a first vertical member, and another set of vibration damping devices are attached at positions respectively opposing the one set of vibration damping devices to a second vertical member. Each of the vibration damping devices is connected with the vertical member by way of a brace. The vibration damping devices in the one set and opposing vibration damping devices in another set are connected each other in a lateral direction by lateral connection members between each of the sets. Further, the vibration damping devices of each of the sets are connected each other in a vertical direction by the vertical connection members respectively in each of the sets.
