Recently many investigations have been conducted to evaluate and analyze the seismic response of structures equipped different types of damper. Viscous dampers are known as effective energy dissipation devices improving structural response to earthquakes. The damping force developed by the viscous damper depends on internal structural system and the physical properties of the fluid used in the device. This study has developed a viscous damper for vibration and seismic control of structures. In order to verify the performance of a viscous damper, experimental tests were performed.
