Buildings and Bridges
Advancements in structural engineering for design of
structures in earthquake prone areas have mostly been towards incorporating
ductility into the structural elements in order to make them earthquake resistant.
For an Earthquake proof structure much stiffer members would be required to keep the
structure in the elastic range. This thought process has evolved over time with the
lessons learnt over the failures encountered during several major earthquakes.
Trying to control the earthquake shaking is inconceivable, but the seismic load on a
structure can be limited using the Isolation Technology. Resistoflex incorporates
this reverse approach of reducing the seismic demand on a structure instead of
increasing its capacity, with our extensive Seismic Isolation Systems. Since the
structure is decoupled from the ground, the effect of ground shaking on the
structure will be minimal to none.
Resistoflex Knowledge Centre has emerged as to be a one stop solution for the
complete support of anything & everything related to Isolation. With our team of
highly experienced professionals with vast National and International experience in
design and construction of Isolated Buildings, we have relentlessly worked and
gained expertise in this most widely accepted passive vibration control technology
with only singular commitment of enabling a building survive a potentially damaging
seismic impact with minutest damaging effects.
