Seismic Strengthening Effects Based on Pseudodynamic Testing of a Reinforced Concrete Building Retrofitted with a Wire-Woven Bulk Kagome Truss Damper

Table 6

Comparisons of response strength, response displacement, and earthquake damage degree following the pseudodynamic test.

Specimen	Inputted earthquake intensities (gal)	Maximum response strength; (kN)	Response displacement at maximum point; (mm)	Failure mode at ultimate state	Earthquake damage degree
PD-RF	200	446.7	12	Flexure	Moderate
	300	506.3	40.3	Flexure	Heavy
PD-RFKD	200	406	7.5	Flexure	Light
	300	630.7	25	Flexure	Moderate

Earthquake damage degree was estimated based on the research results of JBDPA [10] and Maeda et al. [11].
