| Title of Invention | A DEVICE FOR DAMPING MOVEMENTS OF STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS AND A BRACING SYSTEM |
|---|---|
| Abstract | The invention relates to the protection of structural systems such as apartment houses against dynamic loading caused by earthquakes, wind, traffic etc. When a frame structure is excited by a horizontal external force, the girders starts to displace horizontally. If such displacements are large or if they occur periodically they may have serious impact on the conditions of the structure and may cause severe damages or even result in a collapse. The present invention relates to a very simply designed and easily produced damper with two members being interconnected in a rotational joint. By means of the arrangement of the damper in the structural system, displacement occurring in the system is transferred to the members being forced to rotate in relation to each other. Frictional resistance between the two members is dampening the rotational movement and thus the displacement in the system. The invention further relates to a device wherein the frictional resistance may be varied dynamically based on the displacements occurring in the system. |
