1. DETERMINE THE SIZE OF FPS

1.1 RADIUS OF CURVETURE

1.2 Total stiffness of the isolation system is given by

2.Thus the average effective stifness Keff for a single FPS isolator is

3.The effective damping ξeff provided by isolator depends

on the depends on diplacement D which is computed
by as

From Table 1623.2.2.1 of IBC 2000, the damping coefficient BD corresponding to ξeff =20 % for
the FPS isolation system is found to be 1.5. For the site condition of the isolated building with
long period, the seismic coefficient is taken as SD = 0.4.

4. Check the design displacement

5. Estimate the vertical displacement

use depth δ = ______ cm for the disk.

Use diameter d =_________ cm for the disk of FPS > 2D
6. Check the recentering condition for the earthquake load case

7. Dimentions of FPS
Radius of curvature of the spherical surface
depth of the disk
Diameter of the disk

8. Earthquake response analysis

8.1 Structure periods obtained from the dynamic analysis by ETABS

TDpx = 2.042 sec

TDpy = 2.036 sec

8.2 Maximum Base shear Vb of the isolated building at a isolation interface

Design earthquake force of the superstructure above the isolation interface

Where RI =2 has been used .
