For new construction projects demanding top‐tier seismic resilience, our Premium New‑Build Seismic Protection System incorporates buckling restrained brace units as primary lateral‐force resisting elements. The buckling restrained brace core—a specially tempered, high‑ductility steel bar—is surrounded by a lubricated fiber sleeve and a grout‐filled casing to prevent buckling under compression. This arrangement guarantees that the buckling restrained brace will yield in both tension and compression, creating stable, repeatable energy dissipation during an earthquake. https://www.seismicbearing.com/product/shock-absorption-products/brb-bucking-restrained-brace.html Design flexibility is built into each buckling restrained brace: capacities from 150 kips up to 2,500 kips allow optimization for different story heights and occupant loads. Engineers can specify end‐plate geometries for moment frames, concentric braced frames, or eccentric configurations. The buckling restrained brace comes with fully tested moment‐rotation data, enabling performance‐based designs that improve ductility, reduce drift, and enhance occupant safety under seismic demands. On‐site installation benefits from our modular connector system. Each buckling restrained brace module arrives with pre‑aligned pin connections and field‑adjustable shims to guarantee zero initial bending moments. Crews simply bolt the pre‑assembled buckling restrained brace modules between beams and columns following the provided erection drawings. Precision jigs included in the shipment ensure that every buckling restrained brace is plumb and aligned, reducing field tolerances and expediting construction schedules. Long‑term performance is assured by premium materials: marine‑grade epoxy coatings protect the buckling restrained brace casing in coastal regions, and optional PTFE liners inside the mortar fill eliminate friction variability. Annual inspections focus on anchor bolt torque checks and housing integrity, without direct access to the core. In the unlikely event of a capacity‐exceeding seismic event, the buckling restrained brace core is designed for simple extraction and replacement, preserving the frame’s protective function with minimal downtime. To support architects and structural engineers, we provide BIM models of every buckling restrained brace configuration, along with performance curves, FEA reports, and third‑party certification. Our Premium New‑Build Seismic Protection System ensures that your building not only meets the latest seismic code provisions but also achieves superior occupant comfort and asset protection through proven buckling restrained brace technology.
