INTRODUCTION
Earthquakes cause inertia forces proportional to the product of the building mass and the ground accelerations.
Due to this mass asymmetry in building center of mass is shifted from center of stiffness causing eccentricity. As this eccentricity increases, torsion in building also increases.
As the ground accelerations increases, the strength of the building must be increased to avoid structural damage.
It is not practical to continue to increase the strength of the building indefinitely.
Base isolation is one of the most widely accepted techniques to protect structures and to mitigate the risk to life and property from strong earthquakes.
OBJECTIVES
To find out the response of 14 storey RC bare frame with and without base isolator (i.e., Mode period, displacement, acceleration, base shear, storey drift) by response spectrum analysis. Numerical modelling and analysis are carried out using finite element based software ETABS.
To study the response of base isolated building using lead rubber bearing and sliding bearing system for bare frame of symmetric model using time history analysis of El Centro earthquake data.
To compare the performance of RC bare frame having plan and elevation irregularities with and without base isolator.
Study of isolation system variations and isolation system hysteresis in case of lead rubber bearing (LRB) and PTFE system.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Bill Robinson et al. (1993), have written a book called seismic isolation for designers and structural engineers. This book gives total insight into the practical methods of construction of seismically isolated buildings. The different types of isolation devices and their properties are discussed here.
W h Robinson (1997), describes the principles of seismic isolation and discuss some of the isolation systems available before giving some examples of the application of seismic isolation to structure in new Zealand.
M Kikuchi and S Kamamato (2007), presents an analytical model for lead-rubber bearing to predict bearing force-displacement behavior under extremely large deformations.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Kaab mohamed zohair (2011), presented the use of the base isolation device LRB (lead rubber bearing) allows the control of the deformation which are localized on this last, and also allows carrying out a satisfactory compromise between the reduction of the seismic forces and the increase in the deformations of the base isolation.
Kelly et al., studied the effectiveness of seismic base isolation in controlling the deformations in prefabricated concrete structures. When utilized in prefabricated concrete structures seismic base isolation has the potential to reduce the ductility demand from these structures under seismic loading.
BASE ISOLATION: Base isolation is a passive vibration control system.
The goal of base isolation is to reduce the energy that is transferred from the ground motion to the structure.
(a) Conventional structure (b) base isolated structure.
THE PURPOSE OF BASE ISOLATION As for all the load cases encountered in the design process, such as
gravity and wind, should work to meet a single basic equation: CAPACITY > DEMAND.
This can be achieved by,
Ductility
Leads to higher floor accelerations.
Damage to structural components, which may not be repairable.

DESIGN OF ISOLATOR 1. A displacement is assumed, using the total rubber thickness as a starting point.
2. The effective stiffness of the bearing at this displacement is calculated.
3. The effective period is calculated using the total seismic mass and the effective period.
4. The equivalent viscous damping is calculated from the area of the hysteresis loop. For HDR, the damping and shear modulus are interpolated from tabulated values of these quantities versus shear strain.
5. The damping factor, b, is calculated for the equivalent viscous damping.
6. The spectral displacement is calculated from the acceleration response spectrum at the effective period, modified by the damping factor b.
7. This displacement is compared with the displacement assumed in step 1. Above. If the difference exceeds a preset tolerance, the calculated displacement defines a new starting displacement and the procedure is repeated until convergence is achieved.

FUTURE SCOPE OF STUDY
The study on optimal base isolation system of multistory RC frame buildings in a probabilistic sense.
Study on laminated rubber bearing constructed with scrap tires filled crushed rock as bearing to reduce manufacturing costs.
With recent advancement in material technology, more study can be focused on material qualities used in isolators like their strength, durability, high vertical stiffness, low horizontal stiffness and high energy dissipating capacity.
CONCLUSIONS
Natural period of the structure increases in case of base isolated building in comparison with fixed base building
Base isolation reduces the seismic response of plan and vertical irregular models
Base shear, acceleration, storey drift decreases whereas generally lateral displacement increases in base isolated building.
Fixed base buildings have zero storey acceleration at base of building whereas, in case of base isolated building appreciable amount of storey acceleration will been found out at base.
In case of PTFE base isolated building, reduction in response is more for =0.06 rather than =0.15.
In case of PTFE base isolated building, reduction in response is more for =0.06 rather than =0.15.
PTFE isolator alone cannot be used in a building because it has no restoring force in the system and results in large lateral displacement
Lead rubber bearing effectively reduces 70% of the base shear in the building.
In case of LRB isolation system variations, with increase in time period displacement and damping of the system increases.
In case of PTFE isolation system variations, with increase in time period displacement increases. Damping remains constant for all values of time period.
