Short generic description of the project | The intervention is based on localized reinforcements on specific structural elements and on installation on the building’s attic floor of ISAAC’s Active Mass Damper systems. In order to achieve earthquake-resistant protection/vibration control, the ISAAC system gives the structure an improvement in performance that can be quantified as a 20% reduction of displacements in relation to the project earthquake. |
