An article about seismic isolation structure research by Professor Emeritus Akira Wada has been published in the Yomiuri Shimbun.
In the article, Professor Emeritus Wada—Japan’s leading expert in seismic isolation—explains how two seismically isolated buildings constructed in Kobe after the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake significantly reduced shaking during major earthquakes and effectively contributed to protecting the buildings and maintaining their functionality.
