This document discusses methods for controlling seismic waves after they enter a superstructure to reduce damage and improve the building's earthquake performance. These methods include using base isolation systems, adding damping systems, strengthening structural elements, and improving structural connections. Base isolation systems help by installing flexible bearings that allow the structure to move independently from its foundation during shaking. Damping systems help dissipate the energy of seismic waves.
