Casper, Phillips & Associates Inc. (CP&A) is expecting demand to retrofit its crane base anti-seismic isolation system (BASIS) on ship-to-shore container cranes at the quayside. BASIS Seismic System BASIS is built on NLTHA and can protect the crane main structure from damage even in contingency level earthquakes. BASIS has been successfully installed and commissioned on new ship-to-shore container cranes in major seismic zones, but can be used for other gantry cranes, such as
A revolutionary seismic isolation system—provided by Casper, Phillips & Associates Inc. (CP&A)—has been installed on two quayside container cranes for the first time.
