Abstract
This paper presents the anti-vibration system to mitigate vibrations of the steel towers of IZMIT Bay Bridge in Turkey during the construction. The site performance tests have been carried out to ensure AMD performance. The comparison of the design assumption and the site measurement is made and possible future development is considered.
