A building structure shock isolation system is disclosed incorporating aseismic bearings for positioning between major structural components of the building and between such components and the building foundation. The aseismic bearings include opposing plates having interlocking cross-sectional configurations with respect to each other to form a keyed shear and uplift proof element positioned between the foundation and the structural elements. An elastomeric layer is placed between the plates to provide shock and vibration isolation and energy dissipation.
