Abstract:- This paper presents an investigation on innovative optimum design of single degree of freedom system with and without viscous fluid damper. This type of damper dissipates the buildings mechanical energy into heat energy. Most of the structures is subjected to load which varies with time hence the structure is under vibration. This vibration in structural system may result from a wide variety of sources such as wind, seismic waves. In the present study the effect of vibration on Single Degree of Freedom System (SDOF) is studied in simulation software as per codal provision
