[WIB Construction Method Case Study] Road Traffic Vibration Countermeasures for Medical Facilities

Achieved a reduction of 6 to 10 dB in outstanding vibrations, meeting the vibration reduction target! Construction case of the plate-type WIB (honeycomb cell type).

At Mitsui Home in Chiba Prefecture, there were concerns about the impact of vibrations on work within a medical facility being constructed along a road frequently used by large vehicles. To address this, the 'WIB method' was implemented directly beneath the medical facility and the adjacent pharmacy. Using evaluation criteria for micro-vibrations aimed at precision equipment, a vibration reduction target was set. As a result, dominant vibrations in the 10-20Hz range were reduced by 6-10dB, achieving the vibration reduction target.
