| Summary: | The purpose of this research is to investigate or study the behavior of the earthquake
resistance system design based on Euro Code specifically for base isolator and used on
low rise building in Malaysia. Recently, the amounts of public infrastructure are
continuously be damaged from earthquake problems and by doing this research it may
help in engineering field to reduce the damage happened. Base isolator is installing
between column and foundation which act as isolator for the earthquake force. The base
isolator in this research is going to be tested with compression and shear test to analyze
the behavior of the bearing that applied by a certain load. However, a comparison
between theoretical and experimental data needs to be done to get a percentage different
and compare both compression and shear stiffness behavior of the material. Another
comparison of the deflection that need to be done are between finite element analysis
using COMSOL Multiphysics 3.5 with lab result. Lastly, using the Euro code 8 to
categories the base isolator which is fulfills the criteria that require. |
