This paper concentrates on assessing how the variation of placement and number of dampers affect the structural responses of a building. To achieve the above aim, the structure designed is G+47 storeys, located in a highly seismic prone zone. A parametric study has been carried out on the R.C.C building for its structural responses. The similar structure is analysed with performance base placed visco-elastic dampers to understand the changing responses of the structure. Optimum combination of dampers is hence achieved. Finite Element Analysis was employed using the program ETABS 2016.

Keywords- ViscoElastic damper, Response Spectrum Analysis, Performance Based Placement, Structural Responses, Dynamic Analysis, Vibrations.
