  • Coupled truss systems with damping for seismic protection of buildings
    Patent number: 6397528
    Abstract: A multi-floor building is protected from seismic forces by coupling a damping system between a pair of truss columns of truss systems, each movable in a cantilever motion in response to the seismic forces to move opposite nodes of the damping system along an enhanced working stroke as compared to prior art frame constructions.
