Viscous Elastic Damping Wall (VED / VEW)

Viscous Elastic Damping Wall (VED / VEW) is a steel plate with viscoelastic material in the middle installed between the upper and lower floors of the building. It can absorb part of the energy of the earthquake through the deformation of the viscoelastic material in the middle of the steel plate, thereby reducing the degree of shaking. Viscous Elastic Damping Wall is mostly in the form of "velocity type". When an earthquake occurs, it can play a damping effect, and can reduce the shaking force generated by the seismic force and the swing amplitude of the building according to the strength of the structural design. in concrete structures.
