As the first generation of metal damper, U-shaped metal damper has the advantages of goodenergy consumption performance, easy access to materials and easy installation. The research status of U-shaped metal damper is described in detail. On this basis, a replaceable U-ring continuous energy-consuming metal damper is proposed, and its structural form, energy dissipation mechanism and designparameters are preliminarily analyzed. The results show that the new damper can achieve the purpose ofcontinuous energy dissipation and replaceable after the earthquake, and has good engineering applicationand promotion value.
