Devices are designed to withstand earthquakes and aftershocks without repair or replacement (to specified capacity).

Contrary to yielding anchorage systems, stiffness/strength degradation will not happen in Tectonus hold-downs.

With exceptional added hysteresis damping for new tanks/silos, any range of R factors is achievable.

For existing tanks/silos, the R factor can be significantly improved by replacing the anchors.

Devices can be installed on new or existing tanks

Existing tanks can be retrofitted with minimum business interruption and without shortening or strengthening of tank wall/barrel.

Each Tectonus device is performance tested to ensure it performs to its required specification.

Tank and foundation costs can be less than usual when choosing to implement the Tectonus hold downs
