A laminated rubber bearing 7 composed of elstomer sheets 5 and intermediate steel plates 6 which are laminated with one another, is interposed between the support members 3a, 3b, and a plurality of fastening members couple the concrete foundation 1 and the bedsill beam 2 together through the intermediary of the support members 3a, 3b and the laminated rubber bearing 7 so that they are horizontally displaceable. The support member 3a on the concrete foundation 1 side is coupled to the support member 3b on the bedsill beam 2 side through the intermediary of a damper 9.
