N2 - A description is given of the structural scheme of an 11-story RC building with a flat-slab and a braced frame system. The building underwent resonance vibration and impulse tests to the point of cracking and other damage in the load-bearing elements and their joints. The fact that the building is designed for seismic regions gave rise to the problem of interpretation of the results (mainly, the dynamic parameters and the nature of the damage) from the seismic-resistance viewpoint. As is known, the special pattern of the earthquake substantially affects the dynamic behavior of a building. Accordingly, a theoretical analysis was carried out for different patterns. Comparison of the experimental and theoretical data indicated the type of earthquake to which the building adjusts best. In order to adapt it to other types, an optimized damping system is proposed, permitting improved dynamic behavior of the building under different seismic impacts.
