- Abstract
This article discusses the seismic isolation design and analysis of a complex medical building in China. The study aims to reduce seismic damage and improve the post-earthquake resilience of the building. The building adopts a frame-shear wall structural system and utilizes various types of seismic isolation bearings. The effectiveness of the seismic design is verified through calculations of natural vibration periods and seismic response. The study concludes that the seismic isolation design can significantly reduce the seismic response of the building and meet current code requirements.
