Tectonus is a brand that specializes in seismic resilience, offering innovative solutions to protect structures in earthquake-prone areas. The company was founded in response to the devastating Christchurch Earthquakes of 2010-2011, where more than 70% of central city buildings were destroyed. Recognizing the need for a better approach, Tectonus developed a technology that reduces residual drift and minimizes damage to buildings.

With a team of world-leading engineers and a network of strategic partnerships, Tectonus has successfully delivered over 20 projects in New Zealand, Canada, Japan, USA, and Turkey. Their goal is to help engineers build 100,000 structures with true seismic resilience by the end of the decade. Tectonus offers a range of capabilities, including design strategy, structural modeling, connection design, and performance-based design.

Their technology includes self-centering friction dampers, damping-only friction connections, and bespoke software tools for accelerated design and modeling. With a focus on seismic expertise, rigorous testing, and exceptional support, Tectonus is committed to setting a higher standard for earthquake resilience, making cities and communities safer
