The aim of this study is to experimentally and theoretically investigate the behavior of a three-story fragment of a frame building constructed using the PGF-SIKF system”Prefabricated girderless frame with seismic-isolating kinematic foundations. Magnetic dampers are employed at the support level. The novelty of the research lies in the combination of a girderless frame with kinematic foundations and innovative magnetic dampers. The experimental research method involved loading the system with horizontal static force using a stationary winch, followed by the release of the load. Vibration measurements were recorded using a digital measurement system. The normative live load was simulated by applying additional static load. It was determined that the oscillation period varies between 1.8 and 2.1 seconds, depending on the amplitude of the impact. The dissipative characteristics of the seismic isolation system were obtained, with acceleration values during the testing phases ranging from 95 to 177 cm/s². The experimental results confirmed that the building fragment showed no visible damage. The logarithmic decrement of oscillations was found to range between 0.08 and 0.16. Theoretical studies involved calculations based on a sample of 14 real accelerograms, with parameters corresponding to the magnitudes of local earthquakes (M=6), the maximum magnitude expected in Shymkent. The main result is the reduction of seismic loads achieved by using kinematic foundations in the girderless frame system. It was established that, under 7-8 intensity seismic events, the average displacements at the foundation level will not exceed the experimental values.
