The structure of high damping rubber bearings resembles that of the standard rubber bearings, with a crucial distinction: the integration of high damping materials within the rubber composition.
Lead rubber bearings are constructed by vertically inserting a lead core in the center of the rubber bearing.
Elastic sliding bearings are composed of laminated rubber pads and flat sliding surfaces.
Rubber bearings are constructed from multiple layers of rubber and steel plates, which are tightly bonded together through the vulcanization process.
Fluid viscous dampers are primarily composed of cylinder, piston, piston rod, fluid medium and connectors. The cylinder is filled with the medium fluid and the piston divides the cylinder and the fluid into two sections. As the piston moves within the cylinder, the fluid flows from one section into the other, generating heat in the process.

The viscoelastic damper is composed of a steel plate and a viscoelastic material bonded to form a sandwich-like structure. The relative movement of the steel plate drives the viscoelastic material to deform to generate energy. It is a composite damper that combines displacement and velocity types. The viscoelastic damper can start to dissipate energy under micro-vibration and produce different energy dissipation effects at different frequencies.

Friction dampers consist of one central steel plate flanked by two outer steel plates, with the friction materials sandwiched in between.
Viscous tuned mass dampers are composed of three parts: a mass system, a spring system and a damping system.
When the damper is subjected to a dynamic load, the rotary friction damper achieves frictional energy dissipation by rotating the abrasive materials through the energy-consuming nodes. The damper converts traditional horizontal frictional energy dissipation into rotational frictional energy dissipation. By adjusting the initial clamping angle, adding energy-consuming nodes and using a parallel arrangement to adjust the friction output.
A buckling-restrained brace (BRB) primarily consists of three components: a core steel brace member, a steel casing and a non-structural filling material.
