ƒ^ƒCƒgƒ‹i‰pjF EXPERIMENTAL AND ANALYTICAL EVALUATION OF A SUSPENSION SEISMIC ISOLATION SYSTEM SUBJECTED TO STRONG GROUND MOTIONS
´˜^i‰pjF This paper describes the general feature of test program conducted on a new type of suspension isolation system and presents part of its profound results. The versatility of both the SPI system and adjustable lead damper allowed to carry out several periods for isolator ranging from 2 sec to 6 sec along with variety of yield strengths for lead damper. Several number of near-source ground motions recorded in the 1994 Northridge and the 1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu earthquakes are considered to investigate the effectiveness of seismic isolation system under such extremely strong earthquakes. Results indicate that near-source earthquakes can be very destructive to short period isolation system such as about 2 sec (applied in current isolation design), however, longer periods of isolator can reduce acceleration transmitted to the isolated structure significantly.
