Earthquake Resisting Building by using Base Isolation

Natural disasters have been always been a part of human life since the beginning of time, causing destruction to our lives and properties. Earthquake plays a major role in wreaking this havoc upon us. Various challenges have occurred to withstand structures on earth due to sudden moment of ground it also results in collapse of structure, due to inappropriate design consideration of structure without any seismic resistance. Various techniques to make the building earthquake resistant as well as various shapes and materials are being considered to achieve required strength to resist seismic forces. Various techniques like shear walls, bearings and base isolation are used to withstand the structure against seismic forces. In this project we have used base isolation technique, it is also known as seismic base isolation or base isolation system is a prominent technique to protect the structure against earthquake.
