E-Isolations Testing and Research Facility / TAISEI DESIGN Planners Architects & Engineers
E-Isolation, located in the city of Miki in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, is the first public testing and research facility in the country that is equipped with a full-scale seismic isolation testing system capable of using a measurement method that is the first of its kind worldwide. The facility has been built to enhance earthquake-preparedness measures and develop practical seismic isolation systems in Japan, one of the world's most earthquake-prone countries. With its capability to evaluate the performance of seismic isolation devices, E-Isolation provides an open space where structural researchers, designers, general contractors, manufacturers, building owners, and others can get together. This project has been implemented as a collaboration among industry, academia, and government in order to strengthen Japan's resilience to earthquakes.
