Risk-targeted design of seismically isolated buildings
Journal of Building Engineering, 2022Abstract Seismic isolation has been used to improve the seismic performance of buildings for the last decades. However, it has been shown that the code-based displacement capacity of isolation members does not provide adequate collapse probabilities for different Risk Categories of ASCE 7–16.

Design experience on seismically isolated buildings
Nuclear Engineering and Design, 1991Abstract This paper describes the practical problems associated with the structural design of a group of seismically isolated buildings now under construction in Ancona, Italy. These structures are the first seismically isolated buildings in Italy. The Ancona region is in zone 2 of the Italian Seismic Code. It has a design acceleration of 0.07 g

On the effect of seismic base isolation on seismic design requirements of RC structures
Structures, 2020Abstract According to the basic concept of seismic isolation, the base-isolated structures must remain elastic during an earthquake. On the one hand, the existing technical documentation and codes strongly noted that the superstructure of isolated buildings should be designed the same as a fixed base structure. The only difference is the isolator. So,

Seismic Isolation for Earthquake-Resistant Design
1997The idea that buildings can be protected from the damaging effects of earthquakes by using some type of support that uncouples it from the ground is an appealing one, and many mechanisms have been invented over the past century to produce this result.

Seismic Isolation Design Code for Highway Bridges
Seismic Engineering, Volume 2, 2002This paper presents the seismic isolation design code for highway bridges. This is based on the 1996 Design Specifications for Highway Bridges, Part. V: Seismic Design, issued by the Japan Road Association in December 1996. This paper focuses on the outlines of the seismic isolation design code including the seismic design basic principles, design ...

SEISMIC ENERGY BASED DESIGN OF ISOLATED BRIDGES
A procedure is developed to design seismically isolated bridges by optimally redistributing strain energy between the bridge system main components. Seismic isolation in bridges relies on the horizontal decoupling of the bridge deck from the substructure, with added energy dissipation to limit relative displacements.openaire +1 more source
