OUR TECHNOLOGIES

SEISMIC ISOLATION
Elastomeric Isolators, Pendulum Type Isolators

Seismic isolators provide the structure with enough flexibility so the natural period of the structure differentiates as much as possible from the natural period of the earthquake. This strategy reduces significantly the acceleration requirement on the structures and ensures that no damage occur in the structures.

 

 

We provide the following solutions for seismic isolation systems:

 

  • Lead Rubber Bearings (LRB)

  • High Damping Rubber Bearings (HDRB)

  • Low Damping Rubber Bearings (LDRB)

  • Pendulum Sliding Isolators (single and double)

  • Flat sliders (in combination with isolators)

SEISMIC VIBRATION CONTROL
Viscous Dampers, LUDs, Tuned Mass Dampers

The complex dynamic response of the structures during an earthquake often requires other devices in order to effectively control the horizontal displacements. The alternative to ensure a safe structure is by added damping and therefore displacement control and additional energy dissipation.

 

 

At SeismicPS we provide a variety of dynamic vibration control solutions, including:

 

  • Viscous Dampers

  • Luck-Up Devices

  • Tuned Mass Dampers

  • Preloaded Spring Dampers

  • Spring Dampers
