Abstract :
For over 35 years now, field of earthquake engineering has existed in our country. There have been significant contributions to seismic safety of several important structures in our country by Indian engineers. It is also seen that due to lack of awareness amongst practicing engineers about provisions that needs to be followed in designing earthquake resistant buildings, the result has been less satisfactory for normal structures during past Earthquake in India. To prevent the buildings from earthquake excitations there are several techniques that are used nowadays such as base isolation, dampers, bracings, etc. This paper is a review on various researches carried out by various researchers and engineers on such systems. The paper consists of a short review on the tests and investigations on systems for earthquake resistance in buildings done by professors, students, etc of various universities from all over the globe and also focuses on the result they obtained.
