Vibrations

The aim is to limit the vibration levels in machines, buildings and the living environment, based on measurements and simulations.

Possible aspects of any study include measuring the vibration nuisance caused by road and railway traffic (ISO2631, DIN4150 part II and III, SBR guidelines), workers exposed to vibration nuisance (Royal Decree of 07.07.05), machine vibrations (ISO10816), dynamic stiffness of piled foundations, railway track decay, resonance of structures, dynamic properties during product developments etc.

People may be exposed to vibration nuisance from external sources, such as road traffic or heavy industrial activities going on in the immediate vicinity. This nuisance can also express itself in structural noise pollution in the low-frequency noise range. Vibration monitoring using a fully independent measuring system can carry out a vibration evaluation in situ over a period of 24 hours or longer.
