In recent years, the growing need for reducing non-structural damage after earthquakes has stimulated a dedicated effort to develop innovative types of fasteners for anchoring non-structural components (NSCs) to reinforced concrete (RC) host-structures. To contribute to such need, and building on previous research, this paper presents the results of a series of uni-directional shake-table tests of simulated NSCs anchored to concrete via: (1) expansion, and (2) chemical anchors; post-installed into: (a) uncracked, and (b) cracked concrete. Considering different construction details, the experimental investigation focused on traditional anchorage systems, alternative solutions comprising mortar filling into the gap clearance, and a low-damage system relying on supplemental damping devices, capable of reducing the acceleration of the NSCs as well as the force of the anchorage during seismic shakings. The experimental tests provided significant evidence on the beneficial effects of a dissipative anchorage protecting both the non-structural component and the anchorage itself, even during strong earthquakes. Moreover, when construction details allow to close the fixture clearance with a mortar filling, this stiffer solution provide an additional reduction of NSCs seismic accelerations and forces. Therefore, suggestions for further improvements of the adopted low-damage solution are also proposed.@en
