This paper gives a brief presentation of the study on foundation of a residential business complex. The unfavourable geotechnical conditions of the site considered led to the need to improve the natural foundation soil. The most favourable and rational solution for providing safety and stability of
Both for purposes of seismic retrofitting and in new designs of building frames, external energy dissipation systems may be advantageously used. In this paper, the improvement of the system reliability achieved through use of external passive metallic or viscous dampers is assessed by simulation. Th
