Advantages of base isolation technology 1. The base isolation can effectively reduce the seismic response of the structure. The traditional goal of fortification is "small earthquake is not bad, medium earthquake can be repaired, big earthquake cannot fall", and the isolated buildings can achieve "small earthquakes, and moderate earthquakes are not bad or slight damage, large earthquake does not lose its function", so it's very effective in protecting structures or internal personnel and equipment from any damage caused by a strong earthquake. 2. Reduce the cost of housing. From the view of the actual effect of the application of seismic isolation technology in building engineering, for the seismic fortification area of 8 degrees or above, which building is higher than six stories, it is applied isolation technology later, the fortification intensity can be reduced by 2 degrees, so that can save the investment cost, a 9-story building with about 10000 square meters of steel bars alone can save more than 1 million yuan in investment cost, for buildings with basements, which is applied seismic isolation technology later, its investment, benefit ratio will be increased. 3. The seismic measures are simple and clear. The object involved in the earthquake resistance has changed from a complex, uncertain seismic measure that considers the whole structure to a seismic isolation device only, simple and clear. The structure itself is no doubt simplified in design and construction with the practice of one-general non-seismic area. 4. It will be convenient repair after an earthquake. You can only inspect and replace the necessary isolator after an earthquake. Without considering the restoration of the building structure itself, people's life or production will return to normal quickly after an earthquake, which brings about very obvious social and economic benefits.
