Summary:PURPOSE: To reduce response of a building by constituting connecting mechanism provided between an upper beam or a column and a wall raised from a lower beam or a floor slab, to control connection and separation by switching of electromagnetic force. CONSTITUTION: A reinforced concrete wall 3 is raised from a lower beam 2 of a column-beam frame face surrounded by right and left columns 1 and upper and power beams 2, separately from the columns 1 and the upper beam 2. Connecting mechanism 4 based on electromagnetic force and a displacement sensor 7 are interposed between the upper beam 2 and the wall 3. An input earthquake is analyzed by a computer or the like, and the actual displacement of the frame is detected by the sensor 7 to actuate an electromagnet 5, thus controlling connection and separation between the upper beam 2 and wall 3. The response of a building can therefore be reduced.
