What is the difference between seismic resistance and seismic isolation! A comprehensive explanation covering effects, costs, and comparisons.

For us living in Japan, a country prone to earthquakes, enhancing the "seismic resistance" of our homes has become a standard preparation. However, in actual major earthquakes, issues can arise from "repeated shaking and damage to the interior of buildings" that cannot be fully prevented by seismic structures alone. This is where attention is being drawn to hybrid measures that combine seismic resistance with "damping systems." In this article, we will thoroughly explain the differences between seismic resistance and damping, the mechanism of damping systems, costs and considerations for implementation, as well as actual case studies and product comparisons, providing the necessary knowledge for future earthquake countermeasures. *For detailed content of the column, you can view it through the related links. For more information, please feel free to download the PDF or contact us.
