Isolation technology is widely applied in civil engineering nowadays, while it is indicated by seismic damage investigations that the effect of vertical motion on buildings under earthquake couldn’t be ignored.
The concept of isolation had presented in early 20th century, and was applied in engineering until the beginning of 1920s.
Over the past 20 years, modern isolation technology is widely used in civil engineering, which is confirmed by its excellent absorption effect, safety, durability, economy, applicability.
