Global Seismic Isolation System Market was Valued at USD 356.89 Mn in 2022, Growing at a CAGR of 3.9% During 2023 – 2031

Seismic isolation is a technique for shielding a structure against large earthquakes by installing isolation devices beneath the structure. Columns and beams are meant to be robust and flexible enough to withstand earthquake vibrations in the typical earthquake-resistant design. This strategy is used to design and construct the vast majority of structures. When a traditional structure is confronted to a significant earthquake, the building can escape collapse and save the lives of the people.

The number of structures protected by seismic isolation is growing all throughout the world, including both new and retrofitted structures. New technologies are being utilised for strategic and relevant constructions that required a greater level of safety. Thus the growing awareness of the importance of resilient infrastructure, especially in earthquake-prone regions, has led to a higher demand for these systems and overall growth of the global seismic isolation system market.

Global Seismic Isolation System Market Revenue & Forecast, (US$ Million), 2015 – 2031

Global Seismic Isolation System Market Challenges

There are several obstacles to implementing seismic isolation as a retrofit technique, such as strict code requirements imposed on design and the essential systems testing needed by the Uniform Building Codes (UBC-97), which are involved with every project throughout and after completion. Besides seismic isolation systems often involve higher initial costs compared to traditional construction methods. This can be a deterrent for some projects, particularly those with budget constraints and the demand specialized expertise can all hamper the growth of the global seismic isolation system market.

Report Coverage and Deliverables

The rise of seismic isolation systems for bridges is a significant development in the field of earthquake engineering and infrastructure resilience. Seismic isolation systems are increasingly being recognized as effective solutions to enhance the seismic performance of bridges and ensure the safety of both the structures and the people who use them. Bridges are critical components of transportation infrastructure, and their vulnerability to earthquakes can have severe societal and economic consequences.

For example The AirTrain Light Rail System, which serves JFK International Airport in New York, is a 10-mile bridge built to relieve traffic congestion and enhance airport access. Continuous multi-span concrete box girders supported by lead rubber bearings (LRBs) were employed in the design. The recommended strategy for securing the box girder bridge from earthquakes was seismic isolation, which proved to be the most cost-effective alternative. Thus with the rising urbanization and eclectic infrastructure will all led to the growth of the seismic isolation system market during the forecast period.

In the last few years, the frequency of earthquakes in North America has risen. The western United States, particularly California, is located in a seismically active region. The potential for strong earthquakes has led to a heightened awareness of the need to protect critical infrastructure, including bridges, buildings, and transportation networks. The U.S. is increasingly focused on enhancing infrastructure resilience to natural hazards, including earthquakes.

Thus there is rise in demand for seismic isolation systems which offer a proactive approach to minimizing damage and ensuring the functionality of critical structures. As base isolation has increased in prominence, so has the amount of research committed to designing new forms of isolation systems in the United States. Elastomeric isolators have been used in practically all isolation systems to date; ongoing research is continuing to increase the performance of these isolators. Earthquake Engineering Research Centre (EERC) has just completed a big experimental research project for isolators with nuclear reactor applications. Thus in the upcoming years the seismic isolation system market in North America region will exponentially rise.
