In this paper, existing studies on seismic design of engineered cladding connections are considered to better understand the performance of cladding connections against earthquakes using the concepts of earthquake engineering. In the past studies have argued that the interaction between the structure and cladding should be minimized, that is, the cladding is completely separated from the structure and does not provide any kind of additional stiffness to the structure, but recent research has been developed to find a different method. Instead of reducing or eliminating the cladding-structure interaction, its advantages are used for energy dissipation, which reduces the response of the original structure. The new concept of cladding contribution to the energy dissipation is the advanced or engineered cladding connections. The advanced cladding connection exhibits ductility and damping, and as a result, high energy dissipation without failure during moderate or strong earthquakes. Due to the increased damping, the overall structure response is maintained within acceptable limits, avoiding the destruction of other non-structural and containing elements In the energy dissipation method, it is assumed that the excess forces generated by the earthquake are dissipated by the ductility of the members. The ductility with plastic deformation can resist larger forces without collapse, and this is what is considered in the behavior of structures against earthquake forces. Also, by studying the numerical and experimental studies in this field as mentioned in this paper, it has been concluded that using of advanced cladding connections has significantly reduced the interstory displacement response of the structure.
