What are the shortcomings of traditional seismic supports have been eliminated

Oct 17, 2021

With the widespread use of new anti-seismic supports, traditional anti-seismic support products have been eliminated. The reasons are mostly due to the following reasons:

Reason 1: The traditional seismic support system determines the inconvenience in use. The load-bearing system of traditional equipment is mostly a load support system with gravity as the primary load. Simply put, this equipment only accepts relevant vertical load forces; this load-bearing system directly causes the equipment to swing relatively large. Then the equipment has the disadvantage of inconvenience during use, and even the damage to the nearby equipment and the direct fall of the equipment will gradually be replaced by new equipment.

Reason 2: Traditional seismic support will lack horizontal seismic support when encountering an earthquake. As we all know, when an earthquake is encountered, it is not all longitudinal waves, but often accompanied by transverse waves; when an earthquake occurs, the inertial effect will directly cause the horizontal vibration of the related equipment, while the traditional seismic support has no horizontal support force, which directly leads to the impact of the earthquake. Unable to withstand the vibration of the transverse wave and produce automatic fall and break; especially some water pipes, electrical and mechanical equipment and natural gas equipment, if they cannot withstand the transverse wave, they will fall off and cause secondary damage, which makes the traditional seismic support in the earthquake. The effect that can be played is greatly reduced. Only by using the current new type of seismic support can this situation be avoided, the earthquake loss is minimized, and the traditional equipment has long been eliminated.
