Base Isolation of Buildings
THKs base isolation systems are capable of achieving base isolation even with lightweight buildings and
towering buildings, whose base isolation was difficult with the conventional systems.
Buildings themselves can be designed normally. Our base isolation products are flexible earthquake-proof systems.

technical book
In building a base-isolated house, it is necessary to conduct a ground survey or the like. Since the building moves
horizontally in an earthquake, there are various precautions to be observed such as securing a horizontal clearance
and attention to be paid to piping.
Precautions on design
1. Survey of ground classification
It is necessary to conduct a ground survey (boring) or obtain data of neighboring ground.
3. Structure of piping
Base-isolated buildings are horizontally displaced from the foundation (land) in an earthquake
or the like. Therefore, the piping systems such as water and sewage and gas must have flexible
structures, and the electric wires and telephone cables need to have extra lengths.

Case Examples of Design
Characteristics
This is an irregularly shaped wooden house in
which one of the corners is cut and the center of
one side is recessed. Since THKs base isolation
system provides support, damping and recovery in
different places, it can base-isolate even such an
irregularly shaped wooden house.
Building overview
Base-isolated area : 107.1m2
1st floor : 94.8m2
2nd floor : 97.9m2
Loft : 30.6m2
Characteristics
This is a steel-framed house in which a
garage is built in part of the 1st floor.
Since THKs base isolation system has
a very small friction coefficient, it can
base-isolate even a building with load
fluctuations like this house.

Precautions on Use
Precautions on handing (observe the following points to avoid danger)
Tilting CLB with the temporary clamps removed may cause the LM block or LM rail to slide by their own weights, and
damage it or fall onto the foot to cause injury. During transportation or in any process where the product may be
tilted in installation, do not remove the temporary clamps.
Dropping or hitting the product may damage it. Giving impact to the product could lose its function even if it looks
intact.
Disassembling the product may cause dust to enter the product or degrade the assembly accuracy of parts, which
could make the product unable to maintain its original performance. Do not disassemble the product.
When transporting RDT, holding the ball screw may damage it. Be sure to hold RDT itself when transporting it.
- Leaning down the buffer of RDT from the horizontal position may let air enter it and make RDT unable to maintain its
original performance.
Lubrication
Do not wipe off the grease applied on the product.
The system contains AFA Grease (THK product), with which we have applied for acquisition of Land, Transport and
Infrastructure Minster approval for the system. When replenishing grease during installation or periodical inspection,
do not replenish other grease.
Precautions on use
When installing the system, take care not to contaminate the system with rain, dirt or dust as much as possible, and
cure the system after it is installed. In addition, remove the curing equipment before the construction of the building.
Take a measure to prevent the base isolation layer from being immersed from rain during the installation work.
CLB is provided with temporary clamps for preventing fall during transportation and positioning the system when
installing steel frames. Remove them before the construction of the building.
