The increasing need for safer bridges and buildings in Europe has stimulated the development of the first European specifications for the design, manufacturing, and testing of anti-seismic devices, the European norm EN 15129. Among the great variety of anti-seismic devices, seismic isolators such as lead rubber bearings (LRB) and curved surface sliders (CSS) have found wide application in bridge and building structures. In order to reach the CE Certification according to EN 15129, a complete testing campaign has been carried out as specified by the European norm. Despite the demanding testing requirements in the new European norm, the results proved that the proposed design of the isolators successfully fulfilled the performance required for the CE Certification. |
