Introduction: The safety and functionality of special category buildings are critical to guarantee their operability during and after seismic events. Despite advances in power dissipation technologies such as speed-dependent heatsinks.
Objective: Analyze the performance of a special category structure equipped with linear viscous type velocity-dependent energy dissipators, evaluating its behavior at various seismic actions comparable to the design spectrum
Methods: A quantitative and experimental approach is employed using procedures to evaluate the performance of a special category structure, equipped with linear viscous type velocity-dependent energy dissipators.
Results: The most relevant results were: The evaluated building demonstrates a robust and safe structural performance under seismic conditions and the effectiveness of energy dissipators are a viable and efficient technical solution to increase the resilience of critical structures, minimizing risks to human life and guaranteeing operational continuity.
Conclusions: The analyzed structure demonstrates favorable performance against seismic events thanks to the implementation of linear viscous dissipators, meeting the strong column design criteria and regulatory parameters for essential buildings.
