CEN officially created the TC 340: Anti-seismic Devices in 1993 with the task to proceed with the standardization of the seismic hardware for use in structures erected in seismic areas and designed in accordance with EUROCODE 8, with the aim of modifying their response to seismic action. This European Standard specifies functional requirements and general design rules thereof, material characteristics, manufacturing and testing requirements, as well as acceptance, installation and maintenance criteria. This Standard covers all types of Seismic Hardware in existence and leaves a door open to future progress. Also, the paper elucidates the criteria adopted for the pending revision of the EN 15129 that began in December 2015. In conclusion, this document summarizes the experience gained in Europe over the past 40 years in the field of Anti-seismic devices, which is dealt with through the application of very advanced criteria. This favours pro-gress inasmuch as it promotes loyal competition through clear and fair rules that protect the interests of the community. |
