Seismic bearing pad

lead-coreelastomerfor horizontal loads

Thanks to the high energy dissipation capacity, it is possible to reduce the horizontal displacement, in comparison with that of an isolation system with the same equivalent stiffness but the lower energy dissipation capacity. LRB is designed for the maximum displacement, from 70%(at ordinary times) of product’s height, 200%(at earthquake times) of product’s height. If earthquake occurs more than desing force, rubber bearing can respond. Earthaquake forces by protecting their stabilities thanks to their elasticities Due to elasticity of rubber the structure gets back to the first position as soon as earthquake finishs.
