[WIB Construction Method Case Study] Road Traffic Vibration Countermeasures for Model Houses (2)

Traffic vibrations transmitted from the ground have been reduced! An environment that falls below regulatory standards has been created after the measures were implemented!

In the model house along the main road in Chiba Prefecture, there were concerns about the impact of traffic vibrations on the living environment due to the proximity of a heavily trafficked main road after the model house was newly constructed. The 'WIB method' was implemented directly beneath the model house, achieving a vibration reduction level of 12dB (about 1/4 of the original vibration). This model house is planned along a heavily trafficked main road due to its appealing characteristics, but thanks to this construction, the traffic vibrations transmitted from the ground have been reduced, creating an expected quiet indoor environment suitable for the model house. [Case Overview] ■ Construction Location: Chiba Prefecture ■ Client: Tokyo Sekisui Heim Co., Ltd. ■ Vibration Source: Road traffic vibrations ■ Preservation Target: Model house along the main road ■ Countermeasure Work: Plate-type WIB (honeycomb cell type) ■ Construction Position: Directly beneath the receiving side *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
