Seismic and vibration control member for civil engineering and bridges: "Unbonded Brace"
Contributing to shorter construction periods and lower costs! Vibration control dampers that protect bridge structures in earthquake-prone Japan!
The "Unbonded Brace" is a hysteretic damper of the axial yielding type that can economically improve seismic performance by installing it as a damping material in structures such as brace-supported ramen bridges, applicable to both new and existing bridges. To efficiently absorb seismic energy, the seismic forces acting on various components are significantly reduced. This leads to a decrease in the amount of steel and reinforcement materials used, thereby enhancing cost-effectiveness. Furthermore, when used for seismic reinforcement of existing bridges, the number of sections requiring cross-sectional reinforcement is reduced, allowing for a shorter construction period compared to conventional seismic reinforcement work. 【Features】 ■ Economically improves seismic performance ■ Significantly reduces seismic response of each component ■ Enables shortening of construction period ■ Enhances maintenance management ■ Registered with NETIS [NETIS Registration Number: KK-100051-A] For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.
