  • Aseismatic support for constructions subject to high thermal deformations
    Patent number: 5265392
    Abstract: An aseismatic support includes a mass of silicone gel disposed between supported and supporting portions. The silicone gel is plastically deformable under slow movements such as those induced by thermal expansions and stiff under fast movements such as movements caused by earthquakes. The aseismatic support therefore accomodates both thermal and earthquake induced movements.
