An anti-vibration layer of rubber has been designed between the two plates. Two 3D numerical models of the building take into account the individual storeys, firstly together with the lay-out of the rubber distribution in the foundation pan and secondly without this rubber part. For response analysis, the measured time histories in the construction area were selected and then the typical response was used as an input for a dynamic analysis of the structure.展开更多
