Abstract
Open spaces in building are highly desirable features are floating columns are used for that to provide more
internal space and to make better looking building. These floating columns come with big risk since it can’t stand any
seismic load. In this study we tried to reduce the chances of failure of floating column in multistory building by using
fluid viscous damper (FVD) and achieve higher safety. We have found that FVD can decrease the drift of the building
and help it to resist seismic vibration. This shows that there are ways to improve the performance of floating column and
make it possible to be used in high seismic zones.
