The structural system of the building has to support the lateral loads due to earthquake and
wind in addition to gravity loads. If the industrial steel structures are not designed to resist the lateral loads,
then they may be collapse resulting into the loss of life or its content. Earthquakes create vibrations on the
ground that are translated into dynamic loads which cause the ground and anything attached to it to
vibrate in a complex manner and cause damage to buildings and other structures. Conventional strategies
of strengthening the system consume more materials and energy. Alternative strategies such as passive
control systems, dampers which are found to be effective in reducing the seismic and other dynamic effects
on civil engineering structures. Plan bracing is perhaps the most obvious way to prevent lateral buckling of
a compression flange.
