Beam studies of thin single- and double-stage THGEM-based detectors arepresented. Several 10 x 10 cm^2 configurations with a total thickness of 5-6 mm(excluding readout electronics), with 1 x 1 cm^2 pads inductively coupledthrough a resistive layer to APV-SRS readout electronics, were investigatedwith muons and pions. Detection efficiencies in the 98% range were recordedwith an average pad-multiplicity of ~1.1. The resistive anode resulted inefficient discharge damping, with few-volt potential drops; dischargeprobabilities were ~10^{-7} for muons and 10^{-6} for pions in the double-stageconfiguration, at rates of a few kHz/cm^2. These results, together with therobustness of THGEM electrodes against spark damage and their suitability foreconomic production over large areas make THGEM-based detectors highlycompetitive compared to the other technologies considered for the SiD-DHCAL.
