In this research, the performance of tuned liquid damper attached to single degree freedom steel model havebeen evaluated during lateral movement, by free vibration analysis. Awater tank mounted on test model containing waterof certain depth, serves as tuned liquid damper (TLD). A method of logarithmic decrement have been used to find thedamping ratio of test model from its free vibration response. The properties of structural model, with and without tunedliquid damper have been compared. It was found that tuned liquid damper increases the damping ratio of structural modelby virtue of which it helps in reducing response of structure during lateral movement.
