NiTinols play a key role in the construction field due to their superelasticity and shape memory characteristics:

Seismic reinforcement: NiTinol dampers installed at critical points in a building can absorb energy through elastic deformation during an earthquake, reducing structural damage. They can also assist in partial structural recovery after an earthquake, reducing repair difficulty.

Sealing and waterproofing: Sealing components and waterproof membranes made from this alloy utilize superelasticity to tightly seal gaps, adapting to the thermal expansion and contraction of buildings, preventing cracking and leaks, and extending the lifespan of the waterproofing system.

Intelligent temperature control: In commercial building ventilation systems, NiTinol temperature control springs automatically adjust the opening and closing of vents according to temperature changes, achieving automated temperature control and energy saving.
