A buckling restrained brace is a dual-function structural component installed in building structures, serving to bear loads under normal conditions and dissipate energy during earthquakes. It consists of a core material, a sleeve that restrains the core from buckling, and unbonded and filling materials placed between the core and the sleeve.

the application of buckling restrained braces can comprehensively enhance the seismic performance of traditional braced frame structures.

Product Advantages

• Low production cost and low daily maintenance cost, short construction period, and low life-cycle cost of the building;
• Provides both stiffness and damping simultaneously, and is compatible with viscous damping seismic mitigation technology;
• Protects the main structure under frequent earthquakes, design-basis earthquakes, and maximum considered earthquakes, facilitating performance-based design.
