Building Damping Wall

Originally published on Feb 27, 2024

Damping walls in buildings are structural elements designed to suppress the swaying of a building during an earthquake or windstorm. They are typically placed in specific areas of the building to absorb vibrations through elastic deformation during seismic events.

The purpose of damping walls is to ensure the building's stability and minimize damage that might occur during an earthquake. This helps reduce the impact on the building's occupants, facilities, and structure, making it an effective earthquake protection measure.
