Isolation is one of the oldest and best-known protection systems for buildings constructed in seismic regions. The principle is to decouple the building's response above the isolation level, separating the building's movement from the earthquake ground motion and thereby reducing the energy transmitted to the structure.
Adana Güney Seyhan State Hospital, Designed with Seismic Isolator Technology
Under the seismic design code, hospital buildings, which must remain usable immediately after an earthquake, are of the utmost importance. In the Dizmanlar Group special project Adana Güney Seyhan State Hospital in Seyhan district, seismic isolation devices were installed between the columns between the basement floor and the ground floor. Thanks to the seismic isolation devices installed, the hospital suffered not the slightest damage in either of the two earthquakes centered in Elbistan and Pazarcık. The "Seismic Base Isolation System" not only reduces the likelihood of structural damage but also minimizes secondary damage to equipment inside the building such as computers, sensitive instruments, medical devices and communication systems.
