Dynamic Intelligent Buildings (DIB) are the active seismic response controlled structures which replace the ordinary seismic structural elements with active controllers (AC). In this system the computer acts as the control unit for the AC. For the feasibility study of the DIB the authors develop a DIB analytical simulator and define the DIB response spectra, the AC performance spectra, and the DIB performance response surface from the analytical results. The DIB response properties of an active adustable stiffness system (A2S2) and an active counter force system (ACFS) are illustrated.
