Conclusions
There are many techniques for base isolation
Manufacturing quality, ensure a good long term
behaviour
Good behaviour of base isolated structures
during earthquakes
There are examples of base-isolated nuclear
facilities
Some care must be exercised in design
Seismic isolation is a mature technique for
nuclear facilities
