Study on corollary of seismic base isolation system on buildings with soft story

Soft storey buildings are characterized by having a storey which has a lot of open spaces. This soft storey creates a major weak point in an earthquake. Since soft stories are classically associated with retail spaces and parking garages, they are often on the lower stories of a building, which mean...

description Soft storey buildings are characterized by having a storey which has a lot of open spaces. This soft storey creates a major weak point in an earthquake. Since soft stories are classically associated with retail spaces and parking garages, they are often on the lower stories of a building, which means that when they collapse, they can take the whole building down with them, causing serious structural damage which may render the structure totally unusable. In this study, efforts have been given to examine the effect of incorporation of isolator on the seismic behavior of buildings subjected to the appropriate earthquake for medium risk seismicity region.
