Tall steel building is increasing day by day, thus need for such building is increase in population and increase in competition to construct tall buildings. These building may subject to serious ground motions. The earthquake prone area is frequently subjected to serious ground motion. The cause of this is collapse of structure. The various effects of earthquake are landslide, tsunami, rock fall, etc. such that in this area tall building are not allowed to construct unless proper analyzed for seismic behavior. But however tall building is constructed necessarily due to increase in demand. The design of building in earthquake zone should be such that they must resist moderate earthquake. The main objective is to control the major part of energy that is getting into the structure and to avoid he collapse of structure, thus analysis of building is done in nonlinear domain. To take care of response use of viscous damper is done in the building. The design and use of viscous damper is shown in this paper. The use of non-liner software ETABS is done for the analysis.
