<br/><br/> Damping ratio became one of the most important factors that govern the structural response due to lateral loads. Despite its significance, there is no accurate mathematical representation for it. This research aims to develop a procedure that identifies the damping ratio using system identification technique and measured dynamic responses. The proposed procedure was applied on a laboratory experiment utilizing shaking table device
