This document covers the design of anti-seismic devices that are provided in structures, with the aim of modifying their response to the seismic action. It specifies functional requirements and general design rules of the anti-seismic devices for the seismic and non-seismic design situations, material characteristics, manufacturing and general testing requirements, as well as assessment and verification of constancy of performance, installation and maintenance requirements. This document covers the types of anti-seismic devices as defined in Clause 4.
NOTE Additional information concerning the scope of this document is given in Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5 and Part 6 of this European Standard.
