The passive control systems are the protection techniques most used in the construction and retrofit of buildings worldwide due to their intrinsic simplicity, economic advantages, and the extensive literature review produced through different researchers since the '70s of the 20th century. These strategies have been compared recently in many papers based on finite element methods (FEM). However, many do not replicate the authentic and unique building behavior under dynamic and static demand, letting uncertainties about the benefits and the disadvantages in the implementation. The present study evaluates the effects of the dissipation devices as the seismic protection system for retrofitting interventions on a four-story reinforcement concrete building subjected in 1994 to an experimental campaign to study the dynamic behavior of the structure under different seismic actions.
