XTENDAM®

Xtendam® Steel Plate Damper: Superior Seismic Protection for Your Structures

Inovasismik enhances building safety with Senqcia’s Xtendam® steel plate dampers, providing resilience against seismic forces.

Energy Absorption and Seismic Load Reduction

Xtendam® steel plate dampers effectively absorb seismic energy, reducing the load on structural elements during earthquakes. The X-shaped plastic deformation areas offer excellent energy absorption capabilities. Manufactured with special low yield point steel developed in Japan, these dampers protect columns and beams, ensuring less vibration and minimized damage.

Versatile Application Options

Xtendam® is available in various types for easy installation on columns, beams, and walls. Depending on the building’s movement, the suitable damper type can be selected, protecting both interiors and structural elements. Its economical cost and broad application range provide maximum flexibility for your projects.

Durable and Easy Maintenance

Xtendam® is protected with special coatings for superior durability, offering a long-lasting solution against external factors. The plastic deformation areas can be easily replaced if cracks appear, minimizing maintenance and repair costs.

Certified High-Performance Products

Xtendam® products are certified in Japan and rigorously tested for high impact resistance and reliable performance under repeated loads.

Senqcia: A Global Leader in Seismic Engineering

Based in Japan, Senqcia is a leading company in construction engineering with over 50 years of experience. Through its partnership with Inovasismik, Senqcia brings innovative solutions to the Turkish market, setting a new standard in structural safety.

Advantages of XTENDAM® Low-Yield Steel Dampers

Very stable and reliable performance: Very stable hysteretic behavior due to a special low-yield steel

Developed in Japan: X-shaped low-yield steel material is developed in Japan and has excellent energy dissipation performance.

Controlled lower and upper yield limits of the damping material, enabling a very stable performance that allows for safe and economical design.

Early yielding effect and resulting high, stable energy dissipation capacity, thanks to geometric and superior material properties.

Simple and fast configuration options based on structural requirements: ranging from 135 kN to 1500 kN.

Easy and effective connection to the building’s structural system, with various connection configuration options. Using beam connection configurations instead of nodal connections significantly simplifies engineering solutions.

Architectural advantages: Minimal space loss; accommodates architectural elements such as doors, windows, and corridors.

Excellent durability and heat resistance : Absolute corrosion and heat resistance in both seismic and non-seismic conditions
