Abstract - The field of earthquake engineering and design
has been significantly changed by the useofseismicprotection
devices like dampers. Without these devices, structures are
typically designed and constructed according to code, which
implies significant structural damage, loss of functionality,
and most likely replacement in theeventof design-levelevents.
In contrast, seismicdesignthatincludesearthquakeprotection
devices results in the best design possible and combines best
engineering practise with low cost. These tools have a
demonstrated exceptional performance history during
previous earthquakes, are reliable, and are economical. Most
of the time, the initial cost of using them is offset, at least in
part, by the lower cost of other structural components. With
the aid of ETABS software, buildings have been examined in
the current study under the influence of seismic loads and
viscous dampers. In addition, the configurations' story
displacement, story drift, and base shear at foundations were
compared to the seismic parametersderived fromtheanalysis.
1.INTRODUCTION
The most abominable and fleetingwonderof nature
is seismic load. Whenever a structure is exposed to seismic
forces, it doesn't necessarily endangerhumanlives;rather,it
causes damage building collapses and endangers the lives of
its residents and property due to damage to the structures.
Structures that are subject to seismic or quake forces are
inherently vulnerable to damage, withtheoffpossibilitythat
it occurs on an inclined surface, such as slopes that are
inclined due to increasing horizontal stresses on the more
challenging smaller sections, the possibilityofdamagetothe
ground rises noticeably, necessitating the placement of
plastics pivots. Because they are unpredictable both
horizontally and vertically, structures oninclinesdifferfrom
those on fields.

1.1 Fluid Viscous Dampers
The main purpose of FVDs is to dampen a structure,
which reduces structural response to seismic stimulation.
From a lateral standpoint, FVDs can reduce displacement
and narrative drift, which reduces the strain placed on
structural elements. FVDs have capacity to lessen the base
shear/overturning moment and the inter-story shear by
reducing the floor accelerations.
FVDs are also frequently simpler to install, use, and monitor
than other devices. Design elements like internal fluid
reservoirs and cutting-edge sealing techniques prolong the
life of damper designs. To help extend damper life and
reduce the likelihood of leaving a structure exposed without
the necessary dampening in the case of a seismic event, a
thorough health evaluation program includes monitoring
alternatives like fluid indications and cycle counts.
And, long-term preventive maintenance strategy that
includes FVDs can frequently be affordable.Whenstructural
damage expenses are included, the original purchase price
represents only a small part of the damper's total worth,
minimizing the customer's entire installation expense.

test, a ten story 3D display with four bayous in the Y
direction and six straights in the X direction is shown. The
angle of the ground's slope ranges from 0° to 30°. The model
is broken down and planned using ETABS 2015
programming for different soil compositions and seismic
zone V. They concluded that increasing the incline at the
base causes the seismic weight to decrease and increasing
the firmness of the ground causes the building'sexecution to
increase.
Surekha Bhalchandra and SandipDoijad(2015).
In this study, they took into account the earthquake
behaviour of RC buildings on level and sloping terrain with
varied shear divider configurations. They thought about the
G+8 story RCC being used for an investigation. 9o, 18o, and
27o are the angles at which the slanting ground and level
ground are examined. Utilizing SAP2000 programming for
Zone II and medium soil, the examination was completed.
ChandrasekaranandRao(2002); multi-storyRCC
constructions' earthquake analysis and design were
explored. It is quite challenging to model multi-story
strengthened concrete buildings as structural components
for study. They are frequently depicted as slanted,ina plane,
two- or three-dimensional frame systemswithvariedangles
of 5°, 10°, and 15°. Compare the instant, axial force, shear
force, nodal movement, stresses inthe beam,andsupporting
reaction to the most recent edition of the IS:1893-2002 to
the earlier version IS:1893-1984 when analysing multistory
buildings across the country for seismic forces.
Birajdar and Nalawade (2004); researched "the
seismic response of structures lying on sloped terrain." We
took into account 24 RC building frames in three different
arrangements: Step back building, Step back Set back
building, and Set back building. The structures were
positioned at a slope of 27 degrees. They looked into the
seismic response of buildings in seismic zone III that had
three bays along the slope direction and one bay across the
slope, and had storey levels ranging from 4 to 11 (15.75m to
40.25m). They performed a 3D analysis that considered the
torsional effect using the Response spectrum approach.
Ravikumar C. M et al (2012); focused on the
“study of performance of irregular configuration of RC
buildings”. They examined two distinct arrangements of
structures resting on sloping ground: structures sitting on
sloped grounds in the X-direction and structures lying on
sloping ground in the Y-direction. Inconsistencies in a
building's geometry and buildings that were perched on
slopes were also examined. Each structure has 5 bays in the
X and Y directions, 3 stories in the harsh zone V, and 4 bays
in the X direction. ATC 40 nonlinear analysis and IS 1893
(part-1) 2002 linear analysis were both used to analyse the
performance of these buildings. They discovered that
structures on sloping ground are more susceptible to
damage because they are drawn to powerful forces causing
them to moderately deform. The building perched on a
hillside had a base shear of 6019.2 kN, that is approximately
25–55% greatercomparedtootherstructures.Displacement
was 83.4 mm, that was slightly more than comparable
buildings' measurements.
Liya Mathew and C. PrabhaTitle: Effect of Fluid Viscous
Dampers in Multi-Storied BuildingYear: 2014 This essay
discusses how different loading conditions can affect
buildings. Some new and efficient protective techniques are
created with the goal of preventing building damage from
natural disasters like earthquakes. Here, the fluid viscose
damper (FVD) is significant. In order to reinforce concrete
frames, this paper explains how to identify the mostharmful
properties. Using SAP2000 softwares, analysis was carried
out in a symmetrical squares building. Results are
graphically contrasted.
3.OBJECTIVE
1 To identify the structure's displacement fluctuations
both with and without a fluid viscous damper.
2 To determine base shear variations in the structure
by using fluid viscous damper in RC buildings.
3 To compare other parameters such as story drift,
shear and displacement.
4 Comparing the results along andconcludingtheeffectof
viscous damper over the building in slope.

4.1 Gravity analysis
Inthedesignofa constructivebuilding,loadsaredivided
into dead loads and live loads. There were applied seismic
loads, etc.

Dead load
Building designs takeintoaccountdead weight,which
is specified as a material's unit weight. For the purpose of
calculating loading, the total weight of many other
substances that can be housed instructuresisalsotakeninto
account. Dead loads are seen as being includedinIS875Part
1.
Live load
Building designs take the live load into account.Itadds
to the physical contribution made by people, the weight of
the furniture, and other pieces of equipment. Moving parts,
distribution-focused loads,impact,andvibrationloadsmake
up this load; air, earthquake, snow, and other loads are not
included. Live Loads, Part 2 of IS 875.
4.2Load combination
The above combinations are taken into account
when a structure is subject to earthquake forces according
to reinforced concrete structures' limit state design.

4.6Response spectrum analysis
In order to determine the dynamic behaviour of a
structure, this approach measures pseudo spectral
acceleration, displacement, or velocity using damping level
and time history. This method is related to the kind of
structure selection and is beneficial for making decisions
regarding the design of a certain structure. For each
structural period that the structure experiences, there is a
smooth curve that gives the pressure wave in a spectra for
the dynamic response.
With the exception of basic or complicated structures,
this strategy necessitates several building codes. The
combination of a few modes inside a thread that vibrate in
response to the matching harmonics is a straightforward
definition of a structure'sreaction.Softwarecantherefore be
used to determine these approaches for a particular
structure. The response is determined by reading the modal
mass or frequency for each mode from the design's
spectrum. Consequently, x, y, and z directions should be
examined before the impact on the structure. The following
are examples of the combination method:
 Adding together the absolute-peak values
 Square root of the sum of the squares
 Combination of complete quadratic.

6. CONCLUSION
1. By checking the final comparison for displacement,
drift and shear the final values obtained for the all
the three reserves holds good for damper model.
2. Considering all the tables and respective graph we
found that cement damper and share wall performs
better when compared with all other models which
is having less value and holds good to consider the
damper and shear wall model model performs
better.
3. Considering the forces values the damper performs
better as well as in drift analysis also the model
performs better.
4. Consider in the share forces the RCC model whichis
the performs better damper and the normal model
appears to be a better choice henceinconsideration
model of damper performs well in consideration.
5. Finally seeing all the three results displacement
drift and story share values we can conclude that
the damper model is better in slope construction of
multistory when compared with all other model
