The Highway Innovative Technology Evaluation Center (HITEC) serves as a clearinghouse for implementing highway innovation by providing nationally-focused, collaborative evaluations of new products and technologies. This report, "Evaluation Findings for Oiles Multiple Viscous Shear Damper (MS-Damper)", presents the results of a detailed evaluation for one technology out of eleven that were evaluated in this program. The evaluations were designed to test the performance of seismic isolators and dampers produced by several manufacturers.
