Exhibits a short-term allowable shear strength of 7.7 kN/m! Resiliently withstands major earthquakes! Special hardware for wooden brace joint hardware Blaster Z600!
The "Blaster X" can be installed in conjunction with the "Blaster Z600" during a major earthquake to suppress the buckling of diagonal braces, allowing it to withstand repeated shaking with resilience. Additionally, by standardizing the thickness of the diagonal braces, it accommodates the installation of true walls and insulation materials. In vibration tests, when subjected to the seismic waves of the Southern Hyogo Earthquake (JMA-KOBE-1995-NS: intensity 6 strong), it was found that conventional shear walls suffered damage due to buckling and tearing of the braces, while the Blaster Z600 & X specification shear walls endured with resilience. *Note: The Blaster Z600 is sold separately. 【Features】 ■ Exhibits a short-term allowable shear strength of 7.7 kN/m! ■ Standardizes the thickness of diagonal braces ■ Allows for fastening of hardware from one side of the wall ■ Special processing (embossing) enhances buckling resistance *For more details, please refer to the catalog.
