Lift off the ground during seismic activity, minimizing damage in Japan
Japan has developed a technology that allows houses to literally lift off the ground during earthquakes, protecting them from damage.
This is achieved using a system of compressed air and sensors that inflate an airbag under the house, lifting it a few centimeters during tremors. The house then gently settles back down when the shaking stops.
Japan has developed innovative earthquake-resistant technology that allows houses to lift off the ground during seismic activity, minimizing damage. This is achieved through systems like the one developed by Air Danshin, which uses compressed air to lift houses on airbags. When sensors detect tremors, the airbag inflates, raising the house a few centimeters and preventing it from shaking violently with the ground.
More detailed explanation:
Airbag Technology:-
Air Danshin has pioneered the use of large airbags placed beneath the foundation of a house.
Sensor Activation:-
Seismic sensors are installed to detect the tremors of an earthquake.
Rapid Inflation:-
When an earthquake is detected, a compressor rapidly inflates the airbags, lifting the house a few centimeters off the ground.
Earthquake Isolation:-
The inflated airbags act as a cushion, isolating the house from the ground's movements during the quake.
Gentle Settling:-
Once the tremors subside, the airbags deflate, and the house gently settles back down on its foundation.
Proven Effectiveness:-
This technology has been demonstrated to be effective, with houses remaining undamaged during significant earthquakes.
