Base isolation is a seismic retrofitting technique used in building construction to minimize earthquake damage. It involves placing a building on flexible bearings or isolators, typically made of rubber or sliding materials, situated between the structure and its foundation. These isolators decouple the building from ground motion during an earthquake, allowing the base to move independently of the superstructure. In the event of seismic activity, the base isolators absorb and dissipate seismic energy, reducing the transmission of forces to the building. This innovative system enhances a structure's ability to withstand earthquakes, protecting occupants and minimizing structural damage. Base isolation has proven effective in preserving the integrity of buildings during seismic events, offering a reliable strategy to enhance overall earthquake resilience in urban areas prone to seismic activity.

Footage from a PV rooftop fire in Heerenveen, Netherlands that involved about 2000 PV panels (June 9, 2022). Small fires continued the following day due to electricity activity associated with the panels. Make sure you consider the fire safety of the roof buildup before adding PV panels - ignitions are bound to happen for various reasons, so limiting the consequences once a fire takes place is key. #pvsolar #fire #rooftopsolar #arcing #future #sustainability #membranes #combustible #roof #technology #pvsystem #firesafety #riskmanagement #fireriskassessment #greendeal #repowereu SolarPower Europe Society of Fire Protection Engineers (SFPE) NFPA pv magazine Global International Fire and Safety Journal (IFSJ) International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) New York City Fire Department
