Technologies to Support Building Safety and Reliability

Vibration Control Technology of Toda Corporation

Overview


Overview of vibration control structure
Vibration control structure is a technology that controls the shaking of a building. The vibration control device built into the building absorbs seismic energy to reduce shaking and reduce damage to columns and beams.

Vibration control structure

Advantages

During the earthquake, the vibration control device absorbs the energy of the shaking to prevent damage to buildings and household goods, and stops the shaking of the building faster.
The damage to the building caused by an earthquake is smaller, and the life of the building can be extended. This device can also reduce the shaking of the building caused by strong winds as well as earthquakes, resulting in a more comfortable living environment.
The higher the building, the greater the effect of vibration control.
