Earthquake Resistant Construction Using Base Isolation: Survey Report on Framing of the Guidelines for Technological Development of Base-Isolation Systems for Buildings. Volume 2.

摘要

The report is Volume Two of a two volume series on passive energy dissipating systems for buildings and other structures. The volume, Survey Report on Framing of the Guidelines in Technological Development of Base Isolation Systems for Buildings, addresses the performance of these systems and provides examples of buildings installed with the systems. The documents provide guidelines for evaluating these systems and a directory of these systems used in buildings and other structures. The original reports in Japanese were published by the Building Center of Japan under the sponsorship of the Japanese Ministry of Construction (MOC). The MOC provided these reports to the National Institute of Standards and Technology for their translation into English and for publication. The subjects addressed in these reports include: the history and types of passive energy dissipators; their applications, evaluations, and performance; and case histories of these devices exposed to seismic loading.
