Thorough explanation of seismic dampers, including their structure, advantages, and disadvantages.
Even in houses with high seismic resistance, it is effective! You can understand the basics of damping structures, including the differences between seismic structures and base-isolated structures.
For those who have completed seismic retrofitting of their homes and are considering making them even more earthquake-resistant, seismic dampers are one effective option. While seismic structures enhance the strength of the building itself, seismic dampers absorb and reduce the shaking from earthquakes, helping to mitigate damage from repeated earthquakes and strong winds. In this article, we will detail the mechanisms, types, lifespan, advantages, and disadvantages of seismic dampers, as well as examine common misconceptions and reasons why some say they are "meaningless." This information will be useful not only for those planning to build a new home but also for those considering earthquake measures for existing homes. *For more detailed content of the column, please refer to the related links.

Tokiwa System Co., Ltd. is a company that develops, manufactures, and sells the seismic control device αDamperExII. It is a pioneer in seismic control devices using hydraulic dampers. The αDamperExII has received the number one track record and trust in the Tokai and Tonankai earthquake warning areas, and it will soon be adopted in 10,000 buildings. The αDamperExII is a hydraulic seismic control device that reduces building deformation caused by earthquake shaking by approximately half.
