HISLIDE

These isolators can dissipate very large amounts of energy witch dissipation is given by the friction of the sliding material. The re-centering capacity is given by the pendulum effect.

They are suitable for any kinds of structure, up to the most important bridges. They are not sensitive to fire action and can grant a very long service life with negligible maintenance.

Sliding pendulum isolators are very often the most cost/performance effective devices
