Earthquake
Our members and partners produce high-quality steel products and innovative technologies that contribute to a sustainable future.
Solutions for Earthquake
Air-cooled Rebar Mesh for RC Structural Plate Members
TATA Steel – All Regions
Generally welded wire meshes produced from cold drawing of wires have high strength but fall behind in ductility parameters such as elongation (%) and UTS/YS ratio compared to TMT bars.
Buckling Restrained Brace
Japan Iron and Steel Federation – All Regions
Buckling Restrained Brace assembled from core axial member and restraining concrete or hollow section maintains stable hysteretic characteristic and absorbs seismic force effectively, and reduces damages of main structural frame.
Wave-type Stainless Steel Water Tank
POSCO – All Regions
The wave panel has the excellent water pressure distribution and reduces sloshing in the event of an earthquake.
Buckling Restraint Brace Concrete-filled Steel Tube (CFT)
Japan Iron and Steel Federation – All Regions
Disaster protection building is a steel structure in quake resistance and tsunami resistance applying buckling restrained braces and concrete-filled steel tube members.
Bolted and Repairable Moment Frames
Nucor Construction Solutions – All Regions
Moment frames are excellent lateral force resisting systems because they allow architectural flexibility while providing a system that is ductile and reliable.
Cladding Structure
POSCO – All Regions
The non-welded cladding system is highly effective for seismic performance.
Concrete-filled Tube
Japan Iron and Steel Federation – All Regions
Concrete-filled Tube structure is a structural framing comprised of concrete-filled tubes, CFTs, and steel beams.
Concrete-filled Composite Steel Plate Shear Wall
Nucor Construction Solutions – All Regions
The Concrete-filled Composite Steel Plate Shear Wall (CF-CPSW) comprises sandwiched panel of steel plates that are filled with concrete.
Heavy Steel Factory Building with Crane and Equipment Platform
HBIS Group – All Regions
Steel factory beam-to-column connections are fully rigid connection along the span direction, use cross brace system along the column spacing direction Steel has good ductility and higher elongation than concrete structures.constructsteel is not liable for the solutions and products displayed.
