Seismic protection mageba seismic protection devices – for reliable preservation of structures LASTO®HDRB High Damping Rubber Bearing adaptable, effective, safe

Seismic protection Product features mageba LASTO®HDRB high damping rubber bearings work on the principle of base isolation and limit the energy transferred from the ground to the structure in the event of an earthquake. The rubber and steel laminated bearing is designed to support the weight of the structure and to provide post-yield elasticity. Rubber provides the isolation and the re-centring of the bearing after a seismic event, while reaching higher damping of up to 16%, as compared to only 5% provided by conventional elastomeric bearings. Properties LASTO®HDRB high damping rubber bearings...

Seismic protection Properties & benefits Materials The following materials are used for the production of mageba LASTO®HDRB high density rubber bearings: • Reinforcing plates, the top and bottom plates are made from rolled carbon steel conforming to ASTM A36 or A570 • Natural rubber, type NR, grade 3 per ASTM D4014-81 • Significant dissipation of energy during earthquakes leading to an optimised structure size and reduced structure cost • Combined transfer of service and seismic loads leading to minimal space requirement for the devices Anchoring system • Effective solution for a wide range of...
