Abstract
Nowadays, it is important to build buildings that are convenient for people and seismically safe, energy-efficient, and earthquake-resistant, which is considered the most important factor in seismically active areas, based on innovative technologies. Today, ensuring seismic and fire safety of buildings and structures is one of the most important issues. According to the World Center for Fire Statistics ("CTIF"), more than 7-8 million fires occur annually in the world, and 85-90 thousand people die as a result. The total amount of material damage caused by fires was 150 billion US dollars per year. In this regard, there is a need to improve the development of new types of passive and active seismic protection systems for the prevention of unexpected earthquakes and fires. In this regard, it is important to increase the durability of buildings and structures in general, to pay special attention to issues of earthquake resistance, to predict earthquakes in advance, to improve new types of active and passive seismic protection systems.
