Salah satu cara yang dapat dilakukan adalah menggunakan peredam beban gempa dengan sistem isolasi dasar (base isolation system). Penggunaan base isolation system  pada bangunan dapat mengisolasi perambatan getaran akibat gempa dari tanah ke struktur atas bangunan menggunakan komponen berbahan karet. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis pengaruh penggunaan sistem isolasi dasar berupa High Damping Rubber Bearing pada periode dan gaya geser dasar  struktur beton bertulang. Objek penelitian adalah bangunan hotel 15 lantai dengan ketinggian 62,9 m. Penelitian diawali dengan pemodelan struktur menggunakan aplikasi ETABS v2016 sehingga didapatkan periode dan gaya geser dasar struktur fixbase. Tahap selanjutnya memberikan gaya pada model struktur dengan isolasi dasar High Dumper Rubber Bearing sehingga didapatkan periode dan gaya geser dasar struktur dengan base isolator. Hasil analisis pada struktur fixbase didapatkan periode sebesar 4,212 detik, dengan gaya geser dasar didapatkan sebesar 1470,725 ton. Sedangkan hasil analisis pada struktur dengan base isolator didapatkan periode sebesar 5,500 detik, dengan gaya geser dasar didapatkan sebesar 1286,071 ton. Maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa pada struktur dengan base isolator terjadi peningkatan periode sebesar 30,58 %, sedangkan gaya geser dasar terjadi penurunan 12,56 %.

In the present paper the dynamic nonlinear analysis for a 3D base isolated structure is illustrated. A base isolated reinforced concrete building is designed and verified according to the European seismic codes such that the superstructure remains almost completely elastic and the nonlinear elements are localized only in the base isolation system. Nonlinear hysteretic models have been adopted to reproduce the cyclic behavior of the isolators. Two different base isolation systems are considered and their performances are compared for evaluating the behaviour of a base isolated building, highly irregular in plan, in presence of a seismic excitation defined with recorded accelerograms which characterize the bi-directional ground motions. The isolation system has been realized with a combination in parallel of elastomeric bearings and sliding devices. In the first analyzed isolation system we have used the High Damping Rubber Bearings (HDRB) and in the second analyzed isolation system we have used the Lead Rubber Bearings (LRB). Finally a comparative analysis between the base isolated structure with hybrid base isolation systems and the conventional fixed base structure is detailed.

In recent years, many studies on base isolation strategies and devices have been developed and applied in U. S. A., Europe, Japan, and New Zealand. The high damping rubber bearing belongs to one kind of the earthquake-proof ideas of base isolation technologies. The installation of high damping rubber bearings can lengthen the natural period of a building and simultaneously reduce the earthquake-induced energy trying to impart to the building. The objective of this paper is to investigate the base isolation effect of high damping rubber bearings. The uniaxial, biaxial, and triaxial shaking table tests were performed to study the seismic behavior of a 0.4-scale three-story isolated steel structure in the National Center for Research on Earthquake Engineering in Taiwan. The experimental and analytical results show that the nonlinear mechanical characteristics of the high damping rubber bearings can be reasonably simulated.

Base isolation system with lead rubber bearing (LRB) is commonly used to prevent structure against to damage of earthquake. Design of LRB system is detailed in this study. The isolated building with LRB design according to Uniform Building Code (UBC-97) and fixed building were examined. The six-storey building with LRB and fixed building were modelled in SAP2000 with the same dynamic loads. The relative floor displacement and internal forces of the seismic isolated and fixed building are compared. In addition, transverse and longitudinal reinforcement of any axis of seismic isolated and fixed building are compared. Analyse results showed that effectiveness of using seismic isolation system on building. The weight of longitudinal and transverse reinforcement of isolated building is smaller than fixed building about 36%, 40% respectively.

In the present paper two different base isolation systems, designed and verified according to the european seismic code (EC2 and EC8), are compared for evaluating the behaviour of a base isolated building, highly irregular in plan, in presence of a seismic excitation. The devices adopted for realizing the different base isolation systems are the High Damping Rubber Bearing (HDRB) and the Lead Rubber Bearing (LRB) both of them actuated in parallel with a Friction Slider (FS). A dynamic nonlinear analysis for a three-dimensional base isolated structure has been performed. Recorded accelerograms for bi-directional ground motions, compatible with the reference elastic response spectrum for each limit state have been used for a more realistic evaluation of the seismic response of the structure and a more realistic comparative analysis between the base isolated structure with the different considered base isolation systems and the traditional fixed base structure.

Abstract Base isolation provides a very effective passive method of protecting the structure from the hazards of earthquakes. The proposed isolation system combines the laminated rubber bearing with the device made of shape memory alloy (SMA). The smart base isolation uses hysteretic behavior of SMA to increase the structural damping of the structure and utilizes the different responses of the SMA at different levels of strain to control the displacements of the base isolation system at various excitation levels. The performance of the smart base isolation is compared with the performance of isolation by laminated rubber bearings to assess the benefits of additional SMA damper for isolation of three story building.
