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.
