Abstract:The seismic isolation technology of building structure is getting mature and it has more advantages in vibration control and more socio-economic benefits than the traditional seismic structure. Seismic isolation is an important factor of affecting the shock absorption performance of seismic isolated structure. However, the design and application of seismic isolation constitution have been neglected in practice. In this work, the design and application status of seismic isolation constitution at home and abroad are comprehensively reviewed, and the shortcomings of the current design and application of the seismic isolation constitution are summarized, which provides a reference for the further research on the seismic isolation constitution. Through the elaboration of relevant design results and existing problems of current seismic isolation constitution in China, the next step for the development of seismic isolation constitution in China is discussed. The research results shall be helpful to promote the improvement of seismic isolation constitution and the efficiency of seismic isolated buildings.
