Tension Resistant Friction Pendulum Bearing

TFPS

The working principle of the tensile friction pendulum isolation bearing is the same as that of the ordinary friction pendulum bearing. It is an isolation device that utilizes the principle of a simple pendulum to extend the natural vibration period of the structure and consumes energy through spherical contact friction and sliding. On the basis of the ordinary friction pendulum isolation bearing, a tensile device is added, which decomposes the horizontal movement into movements in the X and Y directions, thus making up for the shortcoming that the friction pendulum isolation bearing lacks tensile resistance.

General building friction pendulum products have the following bottlenecks:
1, Limited tensile performance.
2, They are more expensive than other isolation devices.

Tensile friction pendulum isolation bearings for buildings: It provide tensile performance for friction pendulum bearings and solve the main bottlenecks of building friction pendulums.

It is applicable to isolated buildings where the ordinary friction pendulum isolation system is limited, including but not limited to the following situations:
Structures that require tensile resistance, such as irregular structures, long-span structures, and structures with a large height-to-width ratio.
