Simple, scalable metallic dampers for seismic protection.
GeoDamp is a family of modular damping systems that absorb seismic energy and protect structures from damage — not just failure. We design for no damage, not just no collapse.
GeoDamp Cell and GeoDamp OptiADAS systems integrated in a concrete frame retrofit project.
Simple & lightweight
Metallic, modular geometry that's straightforward to specify and integrate.
Easy to install & replace
Low-disruption retrofit — buildings stay operational during installation.
Scalable for any project
From critical retrofits to high-rise wind damping. Same primitive, different scale.
Modern buildings are designed to survive — not to remain functional.
Today's seismic design allows damage as long as collapse is avoided. For hospitals, schools, data centers and other critical infrastructure, that's not enough. Staying operational matters.
"Resilience is not just survival — it's functionality."
Japan, 2011 · Magnitude 9 earthquake.
While most infrastructure was severely damaged, one hospital with modern damping remained fully operational. No structural damage, no equipment failure, continued treating patients. The technology exists today — we're making it standard.
We don't just reduce damage — we change outcomes.
Buildings remain operational during and after earthquakes — stronger, safer communities.
Fewer injuries, fewer losses. Protects human life and critical services.
Lower repair costs, faster business recovery, protected investments.
Less concrete and embodied carbon through optimized, controlled design.
Hospitals and other critical infrastructure: buildings that cannot afford to shut down — operational continuity is the goal.
High-impact retrofits with operational constraints.
Schools, hospitals, public infrastructure — buildings that cannot shut down and where damping makes the biggest difference. Then we expand into high-value buildings, soft-story retrofits, and high-rise wind damping.
- Public sector / critical infrastructureSchools, hospitals, public buildings — operational constraints, cannot shut down.
- High-value buildingsData centers, museums — where performance outweighs initial cost.
- Pilotis / soft-story buildingsHigh seismic vulnerability, common across Southern Europe.
- Rapid post-earthquake interventionTemporary or fast-deploy solutions before aftershocks.
- High-rise buildingsWind-induced vibration damping for tall structures.
