The protection of structures subject from the risk of earthquakes only really began in the middle of the 20th century. In the majority of cases, structures used passive protection such as shear walls in buildings or even protection based on the plastification of elements chosen in advance for bridges. Even though this type of protection
A Laminated elastomeric bearing is an elastomeric rubber block reinforced with steel plates vulcanised when built. This bearing is the connection between a structure and its support, and should make the following possible through elastic deformation: transmission of normal forces horizontal movements rotation of the structure in any direction transmission of horizontal forces, within defined

Reinforced Earth and Freyssisol, ideal for building land-based or submerged retaining structures, are widely used throughout the world: walls, bridge abutments, storage facilities, protective barriers, etc. Principle The principle is simple, thanks to the substantial developed frictional force between soil particles and reinforcements when they come into contact, the combination of suitably distributed reinforcements and
When Eugene Freyssinet developed and patented the technique of prestressing concrete in 1928, he little realised the applications to which his invention would be put in future years. Freyssinet introduced the concept of post-tensioned buildings to the UK in the 1970s with the launch of the Slabstress system. Since then thousands of square meters of
The new Freyssinet C Range post-tensioning system has been developed as an answer to modern civil engineering requirements. The prime characteristic of the C range is compactness. The C range is the outcome of more than fifty years of experience in post-tensioning systems. Tendon sizes ranging from 3 to 55.15 mm diameter strands are available.
A parallel strand system: Freyssinet invented the robust and flexible multistrand parallel system in 1976. The Freyssinet HD stay cable is based on each strand being completely independent. This principle has many advantages, including: • installation and tensioning of each strand individually; • individual protection against corrosion; • individual removal and replacement if needed. The standard range
