    Basic Idea of Seismic Isolation

    Isolate the bridge from ground motion by:

    Inserting a flexible support system between the

    super- and sub-structure (isolation bearings).This will lengthen the natural period of the

    Control the liveliness of the bridge (due to theflexible bearings) using energy dissipators

    Seismic Isolation: Key Point

    Seismic isolation reduces the earthquakedemand on a bridge, rather than increases

    its capacity.

    In many cases the reduction in demand is

    such that it may be feasible to have

    substructures perform elastically.

    In addition to flexibility and energy dissipation

    most isolation s stems also com rise:

    Seismic Isolation: Key Point

    Most seismic isolation systems

    comprise:1.Flexibility

    2.Energy dissipation

    3.Ri idit for non-seismic loads4.Self-centering

    Above criteria means all isolation systemshave nonlinear properties. exceptions exist

    Seismic Isolation: Key Point

    Bridges that are most suitable forisolation are

    (a) located on stiff and medium-stiff soil

    sites,(b) have relatively stiff substructures

    (e.g. short-to-medium height columns)

    (c) continuous superstructures, and(d) seat-type abutments.

    Elastic Multimodal Method, developed forconventional bridges, may be used for isolatedbridges even though they are nonlinear systems.

    Modeling the nonlinear properties of the isolatorsis usually done with equivalent linearized springs

    additional damping .

    be tested to demonstrate conformance with

    Basic Testing Requirements

  • 8/12/2019 Buckle Presentation Dimensionare Izolator

    76/78

    Usually three categories of tests are required:

    1. Characterization Tests to confirm basic

    properties such as effect of velocity, pressure,

    and temperature to develop models for analysis

    2. Prototype Tests for each project prior to

    production to confirm mechanical properties

    used in design

    3. Production Tests performed on each isolator
