It is important to ensure the earthquake resistance in important industrial facilities. a seismic isolation system has been applied into important industrial facilities because the seismic loading can be reduced. Accordingly, a seismic isolation system with rubber bearing has been studied. However, due to seismic condition, the increase of displacement is expected in seismic isolation device. According to seismic condition, the seismic isolation design with rubber bearing may be difficult. Therefore, in this study, An application of the FPS (FPS:Friction Pendulum System) was investigated. The FPS applies the principle of Friction Pendulum. The FPS can be designed conforming with displacement which occurs by seismic load. Furthermore, the FPS is a mechanical product, the vibration characteristics can be easily determined. In this paper, the seismic response analysis with simple analysis model was carried out so that the effectiveness of the FPS was confirmed.
