• We developed a new design procedure of a two-way liquid damper combining tuned liquid column damper & tuned sloshing damper.
• The two-way liquid damper is proposed as a cost-effective device for attenuating tall building responses by wind.
• An example design is conducted for its installation at a 64-story reinforced-concrete residential building.
A new design procedure of a two-way liquid damper which reduces wind-induced responses of a tall building is presented as a quick guide for structural engineers. The two-way liquid damper combines the (1) Tuned Liquid Column Damper (TLCD) in which liquid moves through a U-shape tube and the (2) Tuned Sloshing Damper (TSD) in which liquid sloshes within a container, respectively for two orthogonal directions. Dimensions of the damper, such as horizontal liquid column length and the thickness of the TLCD, the width of the TSD, and liquid height are determined given the condition of tuning the natural frequencies of liquid motion in the damper to those of the building. The design procedure is a trial and error process of satisfying geometrical constraints (i.e., maximum space where the damper is installed) and varying controlled response factors (i.e., performance of vibration attenuation). A design example of the damper is illustrated in the paper for its installation at a 64-story reinforced-concrete residential building.
