THE EFFECT OF SEISMIC SEPARATORS UNDER EARTHQUAKE STIMULUS

Abstract

In this study, the effect of using separators in concrete reservoirs for the storage of drinking water has been investigated. In general, there are various methods for designing the resistance of these instruments to earthquakes; one is a highly resistant structure so that they can withstand the earthquake-induced forces and resist earthquake, and secondly, it protects the separation of the anti-seismic which is by separation from the base. Air tanks are among the most important urban water utilities that must use their own after an earthquake to provide water and fire. Due to the concentration of a significant part of the mass of the structure, which is located at a relatively high level, it is more likely to be vulnerable to earthquake provocations. In the present study, a 1000-meth cubic meter of concrete concrete reservoir installed on the floor of the insulator has been investigated under the effect of accelerating the equivalent of three earthquakes Kobe, Loma Prieta and Nortrij. And the results indicate that seismic separators have an effect on reducing accelerations to the structure by up to 20% in proportion to the inclined state and reducing stresses to the structure by 50%.
