Elastomeric seismic-protection isolators — Part 1: Test methods

ISO 22762-1:2010 specifies the test methods for determination of the properties of the rubber material used to manufacture the elastomeric seismic isolators, and for determination of the characteristics of elastomeric seismic isolators. It is applicable to elastomeric seismic isolators used to provide buildings or bridges with protection from earthquake damage. The isolators covered consist of alternate elastomeric layers and reinforcing steel plates which are placed between a superstructure and its substructure to provide both flexibility for decoupling structural systems from ground motion, and damping capability to reduce displacement at the isolation interface and the transmission of energy from the ground into the structure at the isolation frequency.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 22762-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 45, Rubber and rubber products, Subcommittee
SC 4, Products (other than hoses).
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 22762-1:2005), which has been technically
revised. It also incorporates the Technical Corrigendum ISO 22762-1:2005/Cor.1:2006.
ISO 22762 consists of the following parts, under the general title Elastomeric seismic-protection isolators:

ISO 22762-1:2010(E)
Introduction
ISO 22762 (all parts) consists of two parts related to specifications for isolators, i.e. ISO 22762-2 for bridges
and ISO 22762-3 for buildings. This is because the isolator requirements for bridges and for buildings are quite
different, although the basic concept of the two products is similar. Therefore, ISO 22762-2 and the relevant
clauses in this part of ISO 22762 are used when ISO 22762 (all parts) is applied to the design of bridge
isolators, whereas ISO 22762-3 and the relevant clauses of this part of ISO 22762 are used when it is applied
to building isolators.
The main differences to be noted between isolators for bridges and isolators for buildings are the following.
a) Isolators for bridges are mainly rectangular in shape and those for buildings are circular in shape.
b) Isolators for bridges are designed to be used for both rotation and horizontal displacement, while isolators
for buildings are designed for horizontal displacement only.
c) Isolators for bridges are designed to perform on a daily basis to accommodate length changes of bridges
caused by temperature changes as well as during earthquakes, while isolators for buildings are designed
to perform only during earthquakes.
d) Isolators for bridges are designed to withstand dynamic loads caused by vehicles on a daily basis as well
as earthquakes, while isolators for buildings are mainly designed to withstand dynamic loads caused by
earthquakes only.
For structures other than buildings and bridges (e.g. tanks), the structural engineer uses either ISO 22762-2 or
ISO 22762-3, depending on the requirements of the structure.

Elastomeric seismic-protection isolators —
Part 1:
Test methods
1 Scope
This part of ISO 22762 specifies the test methods for determination of
a) the properties of the rubber material used to manufacture the elastomeric seismic isolators, and
b) the characteristics of elastomeric seismic isolators.
It is applicable to elastomeric seismic isolators used to provide buildings or bridges with protection from
earthquake damage. The isolators covered consist of alternate elastomeric layers and reinforcing steel plates
which are placed between a superstructure and its substructure to provide both flexibility for decoupling
structural systems from ground motion, and damping capability to reduce displacement at the isolation
interface and the transmission of energy from the ground into the structure at the isolation frequency.

5.8.4.1 Test temperature
Test temperatures shall at least cover the range of service requirements. The values given in Table 4 shall be
