Satbayev University is hosting an international conference dedicated to achievements and prospects of applying effective seismic isolation systems for buildings and structures

A significant event for the architectural and construction sector will take place at Satbayev University on February 19–20, 2025 – a scientific and practical conference on the topic: “Features of the design, construction, and operation of buildings and structures with active seismic protection”.

Scientists and specialists from the EAEU countries, CIS, and abroad will participate in this event to discuss important aspects: the results of experimental studies of rubber-metal and spring seismic isolators; calculation and design, experience, and prospects of using effective seismic isolation systems in construction, as well as other methods of regulating the seismic response of buildings and structures; exchange of experiences.

The significance of the conference: to support the implementation of the Order of the Committee for Construction and Housing and Communal Services of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Ministry of Industry and Construction of the Republic of Kazakhstan, No. 107-NQ dated July 31, 2024, paragraph 2 “On amendments and additions to the Order of the Ministry of Industry and Infrastructure Development of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated December 9, 2022, No. 229-NQ regarding the widespread use of seismic isolation in earthquake-resistant construction”.

The program of the scientific and practical conference is comprehensive and provides for the thorough consideration of issues aimed at solving tasks related to the design, construction, and operation of buildings and structures using seismic isolation, as well as the application of other special methods of engineering protection for buildings and structures from earthquakes and other dynamic impacts.

At the end of the conference, a Resolution will be adopted.

Event time: February 19 and 20, 2025, from 09:00 to 18:00.

Location: Satbayev University, Almaty, Republic of Kazakhstan.
