Seismic isolation technique are beneficial to reduce floor accelerations and relative floor displacements by reducing spectral accelerations and providing rigid-body behavior of the superstructure. However, the type of base isolator should be determined in accordance with structural characteristics of building. The determination of type of base isolators might be more […]
Structural Design of Base Isolated Eskisehir City Hospital
Hospitals are at the high-risk of service interruption during and post-earthquake not only due to structural damage but also damage to sensitive equipment that they contain. In this study, seismic isolation design of 1081 bed capacity, reinforced concrete Eskişehir City Hospital is investigated. Within the scope of the design, site-specific […]
