| Summary: | The title of this final year project is investigation on rubber isolator as earthquake
resistance system for single storey building in Seremban, Negeri Sembilan. The main
purpose of this research as it needs to find out the behavior of rubber isolator of the house
as an earthquake resistance. And from those behaviors of the rubber isolator, these
behaviors can be tested through experimental analysis and finite element analysis. In this
research, there are 3 samples are tested. The dimensions of 3 samples are
100mm*100mm*40mm, 200mm*200mm*40mm and 300mm*300mm*40mm. Most
earthquakes occur along the fault lines when the plates slide past each other or collide
against each other. The effects of earthquake which is harmful for human being such as
landslides or hillslides, tsunamis, fires, floods caused by the collapse of dam walls,
falling electricity lines, damage of man-made structure, liquefaction, spill of hazardous
chemicals, radioactivity from damaged nuclear power plants and etc. By installing the
base isolator, it can resist the horizontal load and vertical load which the loads come from
earthquake. This is the main purpose to research in this title. |
