Discussion about the base isolation design

[tibas]

Dear all,
I want to open a new thread to discuss the calcul and designing of the buildings with seismic isolation devices.
We all know the procedure to start this study:

1/ Predimensioning the device (isolator devices);
2/ input the numerical model;
3/ Analysis of Results and verification

Discuss for threes last procedure
How predimensioning the device?
How input the numerical model?
What code or condition to Analysis of Results and verification?



Let us discuss it.

Best Regards.
