Friction resistance absorbs vibrations! A highly sustainable damping brace that firmly supports and protects people.
"GO-TA" is a vibration control system of the brace type that employs a uniquely structured friction damper. When a house shakes due to an earthquake, the friction damper converts the building's sway into thermal energy, suppressing deformation of the structure. Utilizing friction resistance, it reduces the building's deformation (inter-story displacement) by an average of approximately 60% against repeated shaking, and has obtained the Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism certification with a wall strength ratio of 1.7, making it a strong seismic-resistant wall. It is not only a vibration control system but can also be counted towards the wall quantity as a load-bearing wall. 【Features】 ■ Reduces building deformation by approximately 60% ■ Strong against repeated earthquakes and maintenance-free ■ Easy and efficient installation ■ Usable for both new construction and renovations ■ Achieves low cost through a simple structure *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Company information
We are a manufacturer of construction hardware that firmly protects the "wooden houses" loved by the Japanese from earthquakes. We were the first in Japan to promote the Kuretec hardware method, making traditional wooden frame construction even more robust. Additionally, we boast the highest production volume in Japan for reinforcement hardware (Z-mark, C-mark) traditionally used in wooden house construction. Furthermore, our precut business for structural frames using the latest equipment is set to expand throughout the Tohoku region in the future. Domestically, we have group companies in Tochigi Prefecture and Chiba Prefecture, and internationally in China and Guam, aiming for future development into a global company.
