When high-rise buildings are shaken due to external forces, the facilities of the building can be damaged. A Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) can resolve this issue, but the seismic resistance of TMD is exhausted due to the detuning effect. The Impulsive Semi-Active Mass Damper (ISAMD) is proposed with fast coupling and decoupling at the active joint between the mass and structure to overcome the detuning effect. The seismic proof effects of a high-rise building with TMD and ISAMD were compared. The numerical analysis results indicate that: (1) the reduction ratio of the maximum roof displacement response and the mean square root of the displacement reduction ratio of the building with the ISAMD were higher than 30% and 60%, respectively; (2) the sensitivity of the efficiency index to the frequency ratio of the ISAMD was very low, and detuning did not occur in the building with the ISAMD; (3) to achieve stable seismic resistance of the ISAMD, its frequency ratio should be between 2 and 4; (4) the amount of displacement of the control mass block of the ISAMD can be reduced by enhancing the stiffness of the auxiliary spring of the ISAMD; and (5) the proposed ISAMD has a stable control effect, regardless of the earthquake distance.
