Author : P. N. Patare, Prof.P.R.Mehetre and Prof. U.S.Ansari

The seismic isolation reduces the earthquake forces by increasing period of vibration of the structure. In this paper investigation regarding seismic response of top story isolated building and fixed-base building is performed with a similar structural system above the ground for soft soil as per IS 1893-2002 using Response spectrum

Keywords: Fixed Base building, top storey Isolation Soft storey etc.
