Total floor vibration control across office and high-rise workspaces
Minimise problematic floor vibration in offices and high-rise buildings to maximise productivity and wellbeing
Whether you own a commercial office building, manage a portfolio of office spaces or are responsible for office facilities and their daily operations, controlling floor vibration and optimising floor performance is imperative. For new buildings, mitigating floor vibration is a critical component of building design that architects and structural, vibration and acoustic engineers must navigate. Building owners, managers and operators of existing office buildings who fail to take account of the damaging impact of floor vibration will do so at their peril.
In any office environment, workplace wellbeing and productivity is key. Office building occupants are likely to be the first to face and fall foul of problematic floor vibration. Constant exposure to floor vibration caused by pedestrian footfall, external traffic and building systems, including HVAC and plant rooms, can degrade the productivity of those within office environments and leave owners and operators vulnerable to compliance issues. Add to that the exponential rise of workplace gyms and the risk of floor vibration has never been more challenging.
The impact of floor vibration on workplace focus, productivity and morale – and its impact on your bottom line should not be underestimated.
CALMFLOOR for high-performance, vibration-controlled office environments
CALMFLOOR is the world’s only active mass damper (AMD) for floor vibration control and, with its out-of-the-box operation, discreet size and flexibility, it’s perfectly suited to respond to the challenges faced by office environments where productivity, compliance and performance is key.
CALMFLOOR is the low-cost, low-carbon answer to traditional vibration control environments, such as adding columns and pillars, tuned mass dampers (TMDs) or additional steel and concrete. With no structural intervention at all, CALMFLOOR eliminates the disruption, delays and downtime associated with these approaches – buildings remain fully operational throughout and your Net Zero journey stays intact.
CALMFLOOR active mass dampers weigh just 67kg (148lbs) and can be installed unobtrusively in the web of the beam, on soffits, ceiling void and floors precisely where vibration hotspots have been identified. When building layouts or functionality change, CALMFLOOR AMDs can be relocated to suit the new environment.
Resolve floor vibration problems across all office spaces
CALMFLOOR active vibration control has been designed to address, resolve and mitigate against problematic floor vibrations within a wide range of office environments including:
Boardrooms and executive office suites
Meeting rooms
Serviced offices
Office suites
Headquarter buildings
Collaborative workspaces
Try-before-you-buy demos and simulation services for total confidence in office building floor vibration control
There’s no substitute for a demo and data from your own floor that proves you’ll eradicate unwanted floor vibration. We offer the world’s only try-before-you-buy resource for floor vibration control with
CALMFLOOR AMDs to monitor, control and analyse your floor performance in your space.
Our specialist simulation services go further. We take your existing floor modal properties and ground-breaking simulation software to validate against real-life, measured behaviour. We model and predict vibration in a range of scenarios, we identify problematic zones and we give you all the design data you need to integrate CALMFLOOR into your building with confidence. This is our recommended route to mitigate risk, ensure compliance, avoid overdesign and performance defects – straight out of the box.
