Abstract: In modern seismic design, damping devices are used to reduce the seismic energy and enable the control of the structural response of the structure to that earthquake excitation. The research work is concerned with the comparison of the seismic evaluation of RC buildings connected with and without Viscous and Friction dampers. Response spectrum and seismic coefficient method is used to analyse seismic behaviour of G+10 story building with and without dampers. In response spectrum method, earthquake load is applied in both the horizontal direction. For the analysis purpose ETABS 2016 software is used by considering seismic zone-v as per IS 1893:2002(part I) code. The linear response spectrum analysis and seismic co-efficient analysis were carried out and the result obtained from the model compared in terms of storey displacement in X direction and Y direction and best alternative for construction in earthquake-prone area was selected.
