Abstract
In recent years in Armenia along with the construction of
new buildings, attention has been paid to seismic protection
of existing buildings. Revolutionary transformations using
seismic isolation were pertinent just to that field. Seismic
isolation might play a critical role in Armenia as in contrast
to conventional approaches it does not require interruption of
functioning of already occupied buildings. At the same time
the introduction of seismic isolation into the practice of new
construction has started as well. The present paper is devoted
to the description of the structural concepts, which can
provide significant seismic safety for existing and newly
constructed buildings.
