THE IMPACT OF APPLYING BASE ISOLATOR IN HOSPITAL BUILDING
ABSTRACT: Due to Indonesia’s location
in the earthquake zone, it is necessary for civil engineers in Indonesia to study seismic performance of a building,
which is strongly related to the structure of the building itself. Buildings equipped with
vibration damping structures,
known as an
isolation system, will
have a different
seismic behavior than if it did not have one. This is due to the impact
of an earthquake dampening vibration isolator. This final project analyzes the
difference between seismic performance of a building using a seismic isolation system and
ones without. The
conclusion of this
final project shows
that the isolation
system will decrease the internal force of a structure
element by about 57.71% for axial force, 84.10% for shear, and 85.75% for moment.
The application of an isolation system will also decrease the relative
displacement by about 74,28% and extended structure vibration period by about
171.17 %.
