Abstract: This bachelor’s thesis presents the structural design of a six-story reinforced concrete building using elastomeric base isolators. The research focuses on the application of seismic isolation systems to improve earthquake resilience by reducing lateral displacements and structural demands. Analytical methods and design codes were applied to evaluate the building’s seismic performance under different loading conditions. The study highlights the benefits of elastomeric isolators in enhancing safety, minimizing structural damage, and ensuring the functionality of mid-rise buildings in seismic zones.
