1. Viscoelastic damping device for damping relative movements between a stay and a structural element of a civil engineering construction work, said structural element being supported by said stay, comprising:
a first damping system acting mainly for damping a first relative displacement component between said stay and said structural element, a second damping system acting mainly for damping a second relative displacement component between said stay and said structural element, wherein the first damping system and the second damping system are placed in series, said device comprising an intermediary point connected both to the stay by at least said first damping system and to the structural element by at least said second damping system, whereby the intermediary point is likely to move in a dampened manner both in relation to the stay and in relation to the structural element, wherein at least one of the damping systems comprises a viscoelastic damping element. |
