Difference between traditional seismic design methods and isolation damping methods

The difference between traditional seismic design methods and isolation methods is that isolation methods are safer, i.e., isolation-damped structural systems are safer.

The energy dissipation of a traditional seismic structural system relies on the elastic-plastic hysteretic energy dissipation of the main structural members. Then a certain amount of damage in an earthquake will result in damage to the structural elements, so isolation damping is safer in comparison.

Then the second difference is that the isolation damping structural system is more economical, the economic effect of traditional damping is not so good, the number of consumption. Money will be a little more, then again. The isolation damping of this technical aspects of the words, it will be more economical.

Then the third difference, isolation damping structure, more adaptable to the development of building technology, that is, the traditional damping words are more backward, there is no way to adapt to the increasingly new building technology. The above is the main difference between the traditional seismic design method and the isolation method.
