SEISMIC ISOLATION USING SHAPE MEMORY ALLOY HEAVY-DUTY SPRING, AND SHAPE MEMORY ALLOY HEAVY-DUTY SPRING FOR SEISMIC ISOLATION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a construction method capable of further enhancing seismic isolation performance of a building by applying a clamping method or a seismic isolation and absorption method of a five-storied pagoda to absorb and scatter shape deforming energy by earthquake and minimizing damages. SOLUTION: Steel frames are mutually connected through a shape memory alloy heavy-duty spring. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
