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

Table 7

Comparison of response ductility.

Earthquake intensities (gal)	⁢Ductility responses of pseudodynamic testing (μ)
	PD-F	PD-FK
200 gal	0.96 (12)	0.6 (7.5)
300 gal	3.3 (40.3)	2 (25)

Ductility is defined as the ratio of the maximum response displacement () of the PD-F and PD-FK specimens shown in Figures 17 and 18 to the yield displacement () of CL-F and CL-FK specimens, following the cyclic loading test, presented in Figures 13 and 14: that is, .
Values in parentheses indicate the maximum response displacement (mm).
