Abstract
Recently , studies on seismic energy isgLation and damping structures abound and a number of attenuation mechanisms have been proposed . One of them propeses lo u 【 ilize the eLaste − plastic hysteresis of steeL using low yield strength steel as material . This study conducted 】 ow − cycte fatigue testS to clarify the low − cyc 】e fatigue characteristics . Hys ¢ eresis characteristics and energy abserption characteristics of low yield strength steel wi 且 l be discussed in 血 e next repor 【 .
