This Sunday, a magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck southeast of Taiwan. The event, despite paralyzing the island due to the risk of tragedy, left us with a great lesson from one of skyscraper the highest in the country: how the building behaves in these situations.
people inside taipei 101, a skyscraper out of 106 floors recorded how the building’s stabilization system works in the event of an emergency, as an example of engineering milestones to date.
How does a skyscraper stabilize during an earthquake?
Taipei 101 It has a shock absorber weighing 660 tons with steel plates.
The device is installed between floors 87 and 92 and has a simple but difficult task: to stabilize the building in the event of an earthquake.
In the now viral images on Twitter, a huge ball, suspended from tensioners and hydraulic pumps, moves in the opposite direction. skyscraper during an earthquake
The people who are recording do not move or are not disturbed by the event.
Technology designed for safety
Engineers Taipei 101 they designed the building to withstand 150 km winds and magnitude 7 earthquakes.
Taipei 101 it began to take shape in 1999 and was completed in 2004. Its total cost is estimated at approximately $1.76 billion. It was the tallest building in the world from 2003 to 2009.
Sunday’s quake claimed at least one life, destroyed three buildings and destroyed roads, but experts say the threat of a regional tsunami has passed.
