Degenkolb Engineers joins forces with CALMFLOOR as agent

As our mission to redefine vibration control technology continues apace, we’re thrilled to announce our latest partnership agreement with industry leader, Degenkolb Engineers. The San Francisco headquartered structural engineering firm has joined us as a CALMFLOOR agent with a collaboration that marks a significant step in further strengthening our presence across North America. Together, we’re bringing our world-leading active mass damping (AMD) technology to even more architects, engineers and building owners who want fast access to high-performance, sustainable, vibration-controlled environments.

Degenkolb is a name that’s synonymous with excellence in the structural engineering sector. With more than 85 years’ experience designing resilient structures and solving complex engineering challenges, the organisation has earned a stellar reputation for delivering cutting-edge solutions. Its commitment to advancing the built environment aligns perfectly with our ethos at CALMFLOOR, where innovation, sustainability and optimal performance drives everything we do.

Advancing structural engineering with world-class vibration control

Vibration control has long been a challenge for the construction industry, particularly in high-rise developments, open-plan offices, healthcare facilities and laboratories where floor performance is vital. Traditional vibration solutions rely on the addition of excessive concrete and steel, which leads to increased embodied carbon and design limitations. CALMFLOOR’s game-changing active vibration control technology, the world’s first commercially available AMD solution, provides an intelligent, lightweight, and energy-efficient alternative. Moreover, it offers greater architectural freedom and significantly reduces a building’s carbon footprint.

With Degenkolb on board, our ability to support North American projects is stronger than ever. Its deep understanding of structural dynamics and seismic design makes Degenkolb the perfect partner to champion CALMFLOOR’s technology and deliver unparalleled value to clients seeking next-generation vibration control solutions as Steven Senior, CALMFLOOR COO, explained.

“We’re delighted to have Degenkolb on board with CALMFLOOR,” Steven revealed. “To partner such a respected engineering organisation that shares our vision to deliver pioneering vibration solutions and be an agent for change within the construction industry is incredibly exciting.”

“We believe the CALMFLOOR system can be the solution for numerous types of challenging floor vibration situations,” commented Insung Kim, Director of Engineering Technology at Degenkolb Engineers. Mike Braund, Chief Operating Officer at Degenkolb said of the partnership “We are very excited to join forces with the CALMFLOOR team to assist them in bringing their game changing technology to our clients and communities.”

The future of vibration control starts here

As demand grows for increasingly more sustainable and high-performance buildings, the need for advanced vibration mitigation has never been greater. Together with Degenkolb, we’re excited to lead this transformation and help building owners, managers, engineers and architects realise their design ambitions without compromise.

CALMFLOOR is the logical solution for all building stakeholders looking for a smarter, more sustainable approach to floor vibration control. Indeed, it’s changing the way everyone in the industry thinks about building design and serviceability.
