The utility model discloses a crab type steel plate damper which comprises a crab type metal damper component, wherein a branch component is arranged on each end of the metal damper component; each branch component consists of two energy consumption components; the tail end of each energy consumption component is integrally connected with the metal damper components; the front end of each energy consumption component is of a hook-shaped structure; two energy consumption components of one same branch component are arranged in symmetry; a square-shaped space is formed by the inner sides of the energy consumption components; a deformable moving opening is formed in the front ends of two energy consumption components. When the bending moment generated from an external force is smaller than the maximum bending bearing force of each branch component of the metal damper, the branch component is in the elastic state; when the bending moment generated by the external force is greater than the maximum bending bearing f
