Abstract: Horizontal loading as a result of an earthquake is a dominant aspect which causes damage to the structure. The volume of damage is high in case of high-rise buildings. Many techniques are developed in recent years for resisting the structure from damage due to the earthquake. This present study deals with Base Isolation technique and Tuned Mass Damper for finding the inter-storey drift of a high-rise building. Base Isolation technique is used for partially absorbing the seismic energy. This Base Isolation technique can be used for new structures. Tuned Mass Damper is one the techniques for reducing the seismic effect on structures as it reduces the displacement causing from seismic energy. This research work deals with the performance evaluation of base-isolated structure along with Tuned Mass Damper using SAP2000.
