The proposal for improving the constructive scheme of the supporting frame of the suspension building has been considered. The strains in its bearing elements due to earthquakes are significantly less than in the traditional cantilever buildings. In former schemes the vertical components of strains develop during horizontal oscillations of the grounds. This disadvantage has been eliminated now. It is shown that in the improved design of the structure under the earthquake the vertical component of vibrations is practically absent, due to arrangement of the suspension device strictly vertically. The numerical data for calculation results with variation of some characteristics of the supporting frame and suspensions have been shown in order to allow adjusting the dynamic strains at the vibrations of the base. The scheme for installation the vertical elements of the frame have been proposed. Its usage will allow to build the high-rise suspension buildings.
