Base isolators have been installed at key buildings in Pōneke, like Te Matapihi ki te Ao Nui, to help strengthen them during earthquakes. But how exactly do they work? 🤔 Base isolators absorb the energy from seismic activity underground and preventing it from transferring to the building above. At Te Matapihi, there are 24 Lead Rubber Bearings and 58 sliders that work together to allow the building to move up to 800mm during an earthquake, without causing any damage.

Learn more about the 98 base isolators that will be placed around the temple. Base isolators are mechanical devices that isolate the movement of the earth from the building above during a seismic event. A single base isolator weighs 18,000 pounds (8,165 kilograms) but can carry over 8 million pounds (3.6 million kilograms) and will allow horizontal movement up to five feet in any direction. | Temple Square

During an earthquake, base isolators are highly effective in reducing seismic impact. They significantly lower the horizontal acceleration transmitted to the superstructure—typically by 60% to 80%—allowing the building to sway gently rather than shake violently. By filtering seismic energy, base isolators reduce structural deformation and internal stress. This helps protect walls, beams, columns, doors, windows, and utility lines, minimizing structural damage. While conventional buildings may re

Base isolation involves putting flexible bearings or pads made from layers of rubber and lead between the building's foundations and the structure above. These base isolators move and stretch under pressure and absorb much of an earthquake's impact by reducing swaying and shaking during an earthquake #Isolation | CivilEngineer

Base isolation systems are engineered to decouple a structure from damaging ground motion. Instead of allowing seismic forces to transfer directly into columns and beams, isolating elements are installed between the foundation and the superstructure. These systems typically use: • Elastomeric bearings • Lead rubber isolators • Friction pendulum devices When seismic waves reach a building, the isolators deform or slide. Energy is absorbed. Acceleration transmitted upward is significantly reduced.
