With current building techniques employing longer spans and thinner floors, today’s buildings are more susceptible than ever to noise, vibration and related problems from HVAC equipment and seismic and wind events. We offer a complete range of products and services to protect buildings, equipment and occupied spaces from the unwanted intrusion of vibration, noise and seismic ...

Ship locks and lifts: A ship lock is an engineering structure which enables ships to overcome the level difference between two waterways. Water level is raised or lowered by filling or emptying the lock chambers. Filling and emptying a lock chamber is a central process of the ship lock which causes high cyclical loads on the underground. therefore, an a-priori estimate of the soil behaviour under loads is crucial for geotechnical engineers to select the best design parameters and to avoid undesired deformations on ...

Site classification according to EC8 and DIN4149. In order to quantify the design load for buildings due to an earthquake the Eurocode 8 (EC8) and the DIN4149 require the classification of the ground. The dominating or average shear wave velocity in depths down to 30 m is most often used for this classification. Beyond that the standards request certain design features as flexible foundation beams based on the class of the subsoil which are affecting the costs of a building. A seismic survey can often reduce the ...
