A computer study on seismic protection devoted to the effectiveness of the use of rubber-like shock absorbers installed on the foundation of buildings during protection from earthquakes is presented. The purpose of the work is formulated simply: in the absence of information on a possible earthquake in advance – on its direction of impact, its frequency components, capable of resonating with the protected building, etc., how to obtain protection from the use of shock absorbers on the foundation. It is shown that in the seismic zone up to15-20 Hz they are not very effective.
