building design book

Base isolation BI system for buildings is introduced to decouple the building structure from potentially damaging induced by earthquake motion preventing the building superstructures from absorbing the earthquake energy. Although the base isolation design can be fulfilled using Uniform Building Code 1997. Base Isolators Mimari Tasarim Bina Tasarim The first edition was published in 1989 followed by the second one in 1993. Base isolated building design . For a base-isolated building structure design requirements are applied by its basic functionality as well as the performance objectives in terms of displacement thresholds under a specified seismic intensity. Been developed for the dynamic analysis of base isolated building structures. The movement of these base isolated buildings can also result in building pounding. Base Isolation is to reduce the story drift and base shear due to earthquake. Since base isolation is itself a relatively new technique pounding phenomenon in
