	Seismic Isolation System for Bolu Viaducts, Turkey - http://www.earthquakeprotection.com/bridge_bolu_viaducts.html Earthquake Protection Systems supplied friction pendulum bearings which satisfied the high seismic design requirements for the rebuilding of these viaducts after the 1999 earthquake.

	Fluid Viscous Damping as an Alternative to Base Isolation. - http://www.taylordevices.com/fluidviciousdamping.html Viscous dampers distributed throughout an otherwise conventional structure can achieve the same result as base isolation at a significantly lower cost. This technical paper describes how to install viscous dampers in a structure and gives several examples.
