DonoBrace is an innovative product backed by the credibility of Donovan Group. It was developed based on industry experience and with expert engineering. DonoBrace is a reflection of Donovan Group’s drive towards innovation and efficiency.
“Proven action speaks louder than anything else in this industry,” says Dave Olsen, General Manager for Atco Steel Developments Ltd.
With petrol prices skyrocketing worldwide, reducing transportation and freight has never been more important. Every kilogram of material saved for a large-scale project – every bolt, plate, connector, and bar – delivers greater transportation efficiency.
When it comes to environmental stressors, predictable and ductile bracing can be the difference between structural integrity and catastrophic failure. DonoBrace is a tension-only rod bracing system that has been designed and dynamically tested to ensure superior performance in extreme conditions.
Two metal building manufacturers will soon commence producing and using DonoBrace under license in the United States.
Optimising costs for structural projects is two-pronged. The first priority is to minimise material usage and improve product efficiency. The second is to simplify construction processes to reduce the time, labour, and transportation required to get products installed.
DonoBrace is a tension-only rod bracing system designed to make on-site installation easier and more efficient.
Before joining Donovan Group, Kerry McCollum worked on engineering projects in the USA, Australia, and many areas around the world. With a mind for detail and engineering excellence, Kerry supported the DonoBrace team in developing the high capacity tension-only rod bracing system.
Efficiency means nothing if a product isn’t also predictable and up to code. DonoBrace has undergone rigorous independent testing to ensure that it performs to the same high standard – every time.
Building on part one of our Tension Bracing series, we’re diving a bit deeper into our conversation on how tension bracing works – both for buildings and the people creating them.
