This Is How Engineers Prevent A Skyscraper Swaying Too Much During Strong Wind. by innotutorial(m): 12:54pm On Jul 25, 2021 |
This video explains how engineers used Tuned mass damper to control vibration on buildings and avoid too much swaying on the buildings which are caused by Strong Earthquake and wind Forces. A Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) is a mechanical device designed to add damping to a structure for a certain range of exciting frequencies. You can find this tuned mass dampers on skyscrapers like Taipei 101, CN Tower in Toronto, Citicorp center in New York, Crystal Tower in Osaka etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3m_bs-uVFmQ 7 Likes 2 Shares

But Igboho's Afonja bricklayers cannot even erect a 3 storey building without it collapsing after 6 months. That's how they killed an innocent landlord in Ikorodu the other day & crashed an Air Peace plane in Ilorin with their fraudulent Kabiru Kazeem expertise. Criminals!! 7 Likes 2 Shares |
