This document discusses seismic retrofitting and base isolation systems. It defines seismic retrofitting as modifying existing structures to make them more resistant to seismic activity. The most widely used retrofitting method is base isolation, which involves inserting rubber or similar isolators between a building's foundation and superstructure. This allows for slight lateral movement during an earthquake to increase the building's natural period and reduce seismic forces. There are two main types of base isolators: sliding systems and elastometric isolators, with lead rubber bearings being a common elastometric isolator that uses lead plugs to dissipate energy and limit displacement. Base isolation has been used worldwide to reinforce historical structures and reduce earthquake damage to buildings and artifacts.
This document discusses base isolation as a means of protecting structures from earthquake forces. It describes different types of base isolators like elastomeric rubber bearings and friction pendulum systems. The most common configuration is to install isolators immediately above a diaphragm. While base isolation provides advantages like protecting structures and concentrating damage, it also has disadvantages such as being inefficient for tall buildings and requiring skilled labor.
Base isolation is an earthquake protection system that involves installing seismic isolation bearings between a structure's foundation and superstructure. This significantly increases the natural period of the structure and adds damping, reducing the seismic response. Common base isolation bearings include elastomeric isolators and sliding isolators. Two examples given are the historic Oakland City Hall and San Francisco City Hall, which were retrofitted with base isolation systems after being damaged in the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. This helped preserve their historic integrity while improving seismic performance.

This seminar report discusses base isolation, which involves installing flexible material between a structure's foundation and superstructure to reduce seismic forces. Base isolation works by lowering the magnitude and frequency of seismic shocks entering the building. It provides both spring-like and energy-absorbing characteristics. Isolated structures experience much smaller forces and movements compared to conventional structures during earthquakes. Common base isolation devices include laminated rubber bearings and lead-rubber bearings. Base isolation is advantageous as it requires minimal maintenance and results in more durable structures, though it is more costly and not suitable for all building types. The report provides examples of large base-isolated structures built worldwide.

Base isolation is a seismic protection system that places flexible bearings between a structure and its foundation. During an earthquake, the bearings allow the structure to move independently from the shaking ground, isolating it from seismic forces. Common base isolation bearings include elastomeric bearings and lead-rubber bearings, which are stiff vertically but flexible horizontally. Base isolation is effective because it lengthens a structure's period of vibration, reducing the accelerations and forces experienced, and protects both the structure and its contents from earthquake damage.
This document discusses base isolation systems and their applications for earthquake resistance. It defines base isolation as detaching a building from the ground to reduce transmitted earthquake motions. Common base isolation systems use devices like rubber bearings, steel dampers, and friction dampers placed between the foundation and structure. Base isolation provides safety, property preservation, and effective protection for stiff structures. Examples given of buildings using base isolation include Oakland City Hall, the Foothill Communities Law & Justice Center, and San Francisco City Hall. The document recommends base isolation for important structures like government offices, hospitals, schools, and cultural sites.
Base isolation is a seismic protection system that separates a structure from its foundation, allowing the structure to remain largely motionless during an earthquake by absorbing shock through devices like friction pendulums and elastomeric bearings. There are various types of base isolators including low-damping rubber bearings, lead-rubber bearings, and sliding systems. Base isolation is most suitable for low to medium-rise buildings founded on firm soil, as it reduces seismic forces and prevents damage by permitting the ground and structure to move independently.

This document discusses techniques for earthquake resistance, focusing on shear walls. Shear walls are very effective at resisting earthquake forces if properly designed. They have performed well in past earthquakes, reducing damage to both structural and non-structural elements. Shear wall buildings are commonly used in earthquake-prone areas because they are straightforward to construct and can lower construction costs while minimizing earthquake damage.
Dampers are mechanical systems that dissipate earthquake energy by deforming or yielding. They absorb seismic energy, reducing forces on structures and controlling building oscillations. Common types include hydraulic dampers using fluid flow, electro-rheological fluid dampers using variable viscosity fluids, metallic dampers using hysteretic behavior of metals, steel dampers using frame deformation, and friction dampers using clamped friction surfaces. Shape memory alloys also dissipate energy through large strain recovery without damage. Dampers direct earthquake energy to dissipating devices within structures, transforming mechanical energy into heat.

Base isolation earthquake resistance wooden houseTwinkal Jambu
Base isolation is a seismic protection system that isolates structures from potentially dangerous ground motions during an earthquake. It works by incorporating seismic isolation devices, such as elastomeric bearings or springs, between the structure's foundation and subsoil. This allows the structure to move independently and reduces the transfer of seismic forces. The decoupling improves the structure's flexibility and response during an earthquake. Some advantages of base isolation include reduced seismic demand, lower structural costs, decreased displacements, improved safety, and reduced damage. It has been successfully used in several buildings in India, including hospitals. A case study examines using base isolation with springs and steel to seismic-proof a wooden house model.

Earthquake resisting building structures are designed to minimize damage and loss of life from earthquakes. Passive systems like shear walls, bracing, and dampers are conventional techniques used to resist earthquake forces and absorb seismic energy. Active control systems integrate real-time processors to improve safety. Other earthquake resistant methods include using lightweight materials, rollers, base isolation, and avoiding weak structural elements. Properly designing buildings with features like thick slabs, cross walls, and symmetrical reinforcement can increase a building's ability to withstand earthquake forces.
Earthquake-resistant structures are structures designed to protect buildings to some or greater extent from earthquakes. While no structure can be entirely immune to damage from earthquakes, the goal of earthquake-resistant construction is to erect structures that fare better during seismic activity than their conventional counterparts. According to building codes, earthquake-resistant structures are intended to withstand the largest earthquake of a certain probability that is likely to occur at their location.This means the loss of life should be minimized by preventing collapse of the buildings for rare earthquakes while the loss of the functionality should be limited for more frequent ones.
This document discusses structural control systems for improving the seismic performance of buildings. It begins by providing an example of a parking garage that collapsed during an earthquake due to insufficient reinforcement to accommodate large deformations. Next, it compares the dynamic forces from seismic and wind events. For earthquakes, the loading and response are truly dynamic, while wind is more static. Modern structural control systems aim to dissipate energy through passive, active, semi-active or hybrid methods. Passive methods discussed include base isolation using elastomeric bearings and viscous fluid, visco-elastic, friction and metallic dampers. The document emphasizes that structural control systems improve dynamic performance by increasing energy absorption or dissipation.
The document discusses earthquakes and techniques for improving earthquake resistance in buildings. It defines earthquakes and describes how they occur due to movement in the earth's crust. It then covers types of earthquakes, causes and effects, seismic waves, and performance and design considerations for improving earthquake resistance. Specific techniques discussed include using shear walls, base isolation methods, energy dissipation devices, and keeping buildings in compression. The conclusion emphasizes following construction standards and periodic training to help assure earthquake-resistant buildings.
Framed structures are building skeleton frameworks formed by columns and beams. There are two main types: in-situ reinforced concrete frames and prefabricated frames. Rectangular framed structures use columns and beams arranged at right angles to support floors, walls, and roofs. They are commonly used for multi-story buildings like offices, schools, and hospitals. Framed structures provide large open floor plans and are adaptable to different shapes. Earthquake-resistant features in framed structures include shear walls, moment-resisting frames, and braced structures which resist lateral forces during seismic activity.
The document discusses various structural systems and construction techniques used in high-rise buildings. It describes the different types of structural systems including load bearing, framed, shell, and cable structures. It also discusses the various types of loads buildings must be designed for including dead, imposed, wind, snow, earthquake, and other loads. The document then covers seismic technologies used for earthquake resistance including passive, active, semi-active and hybrid control systems. It provides details on base isolation and passive energy dissipating devices. Finally, the document discusses developing construction techniques, environmental impact materials, and green/eco-friendly building concepts.

Structural loads on tall buildings include dead loads, live loads, and environmental loads from seismic activity, wind, and temperature changes. Tall buildings must have structural systems to effectively distribute these loads and resist lateral forces. Common structural typologies include interior moment frames, shear walls, outrigger systems, and exterior tube, diagrid, and bundled tube systems which use closely spaced columns and beams to act as a rigid perimeter wall. The structural forms vary based on the building material (concrete or steel) and optimize the building's ability to transfer loads vertically and resist lateral loads like wind and seismic forces.
This document discusses techniques for making structures resistant to earthquakes, including base isolation and energy dissipation devices. Base isolation involves separating the building from the ground using flexible rubber devices to allow it to move independently during an earthquake. Energy dissipation devices, like seismic dampers, absorb seismic energy to dampen the motion of the building. Common types of base isolators are lead rubber bearings and spherical sliding isolators, while common seismic dampers include viscous, friction, and yielding dampers. Proper seismic design involves principles like avoiding brittle elements, providing strength throughout the building, and well-connecting the building to its foundation.
This document provides an overview of concrete and masonry construction for architecture students. It discusses the basic components and properties of concrete, including aggregates, paste, and the hydration process. It also examines the advantages and disadvantages of concrete. Additionally, it outlines different types of building foundations including shallow foundations like spread footings, strip footings, mat foundations, and grillage foundations. It also discusses deep foundations such as pile foundations and pier foundations.

Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

CHINA’S GEO-ECONOMIC OUTREACH IN CENTRAL ASIAN COUNTRIES AND FUTURE PROSPECTjpsjournal1
The rivalry between prominent international actors for dominance over Central Asia's hydrocarbon
reserves and the ancient silk trade route, along with China's diplomatic endeavours in the area, has been
referred to as the "New Great Game." This research centres on the power struggle, considering
geopolitical, geostrategic, and geoeconomic variables. Topics including trade, political hegemony, oil
politics, and conventional and nontraditional security are all explored and explained by the researcher.
Using Mackinder's Heartland, Spykman Rimland, and Hegemonic Stability theories, examines China's role
in Central Asia. This study adheres to the empirical epistemological method and has taken care of
objectivity. This study analyze primary and secondary research documents critically to elaborate role of
china’s geo economic outreach in central Asian countries and its future prospect. China is thriving in trade,
pipeline politics, and winning states, according to this study, thanks to important instruments like the
Shanghai Cooperation Organisation and the Belt and Road Economic Initiative. According to this study,
China is seeing significant success in commerce, pipeline politics, and gaining influence on other
governments. This success may be attributed to the effective utilisation of key tools such as the Shanghai
Cooperation Organisation and the Belt and Road Economic Initiative.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

Base Isolation of Structure.
1. WHAT IS
EARTHQUAKE ?
QUE:
ANY PEOPLE DIED DUE TO EARTHQUAKE?
• sudden movement or shaking of the Earth
• Caused by plate tectonic stresses
• Located at plate boundaries
• Resulting in breakage of the Earth’s brittle crust
2. CASE STUDY:
QUE:
ARE WE ABLE TO RESIST EARTHQUAKE?
• On the average about 10,000 people die each year
as a result of earthquakes.
3. SO AS A CIVIL ENGINEER WHAT WE DO FOR THIS
SOCIETY :
Proper design. (increase ductility of structure)
• Increase ductility of beam – column joint
• Strengthening of individual footing.
Give any mechanical provisions to the building to withstand in earthquake.
• Shear walls
• Bracing
• Dampers
• Rollers
• “Base Isolation of structure”.
6. BASE ISOLATION USING FLEXIBLE RUBBER PADS
• Base isolation is a passive vibration control system.
• The goal of base isolation is to reduce the energy that is transferred from the ground
motion to the structure.
(a) Conventional structure (b) base isolated structure.
10. SPHERICAL SLIDING BASE ISOLATION
• Spherical sliding isolation systems are another type of base isolation.
The building is supported by bearing pads that have a curved surface
and low friction.
• During earthquake, the building is free to slide on the bearing. Since
the bearing have a curved surface the building slides both vertically
and horizontally.
11. FRICTION PENDULUM BEARING:
• These are specially designed base isolators which works on the principle of simple
pendulum.
• It increase the natural time period of oscillation by causing the structure to slide along the
concave inner surface through the frictional interface.
• Its also possesses a re-centering capability.
12. ADVANTAGE OF BASE ISOLATION:
• Structural Damage restricted.
• No Damage to indoor services and facilities(gas or water pipelines).
• Protects the structure by preventing plastic deformation of structural elements.
• Secondary damage (Falling furniture) is restricted.
• Function of buildings is ensured as super structure is designed to remain elastic
even after an earthquake happens.
• Deflections and stresses generated are lower.
• Allows for a reduction in structural elements of buildings with less ductile detailing
needed.
13. RECALL:-
• Base isolation is a passive vibration control system.
• Its control the earthquake force transmit to the building or structure.
• Three types
isolation by flexible rubbers.
Spherical Sliding Base Isolation
Friction pendulum bearing
• Main advantage – Structural Damage restricted
14. THANK YOU…
