Effect of the fire action on the seismic isolation system for existing reinforced concrete buildings

Seismic isolation is a design strategy adopted for the protection of both new and existing structures from the damaging effects of earthquakes. It is achieved through the use of elastomeric isolators, which, in case of fire, can suffer permanent damage, seriously compromising the bearing capacity of...
