We are ready to assist you in choosing professional vibration isolation mats. Contact us at: Power@PowerRubber.com
Vibration isolation mats designed for construction purposes. Protect machines and equipment. Reduce the possibility of moving construction equipment. They work perfectly in hospitals, production and warehouse halls, hotels, supermarkets, fitness rooms, and hotels. It is worth using vibration isolation mats during the modernization of residential buildings to increase their comfort of use.
Construction vibration isolation mats are used to reduce vibrations and noises that arise due to the operation of machines, equipment, technological processes, and human activities. Thanks to them, you can quickly isolate vibrations because they are very quick to install. They effectively dampen vertical and horizontal vibrations. They prevent excessive spread of annoying noise and vibrations throughout the building structure. Their use has a positive impact on the well-being of residents.
Vibration isolation mats are resistant to aging in atmospheric conditions such as UV rays, ozone, and water exposure.
Since they do not absorb water, they are resistant to rotting and mold. The material they are made of has dielectric properties (does not conduct electricity) and does not generate dust. Over the years, the mats do not lose their insulating properties.
A construction vibration isolation mat dampens vibrations and noises caused by, among others, operating machines, equipment, and activities performed by humans. Prolonged exposure to vibrations and noise can have negative effects on human health, as well as on machines or structures.
Why is it so important to protect a building from vibrations?
Soundproofing
Excessive noise has a negative impact on human well-being. Protecting a building from vibrations helps to dampen impact sounds (e.g., from a running washing machine or other vibrating machines). Effective soundproofing eliminates noise from floor to ceiling. Reducing excessive noise coming from adjacent rooms (hallway, elevator, attic) enhances the comfort of people staying in them. Building vibration isolation is effective when mats are applied between the floor and the noisy machine.
Vibration Protection in Buildings
Oscillatory movements (vibrations) felt by a building can be generated by various sources (e.g., nearby railway lines). Vibrations propagate from the source and are transmitted through successive structural elements of the building. Vibration isolation mats under foundations protect the entire building structure from mechanical and acoustic vibrations. They effectively dampen vertical and horizontal vibrations. The key role is played by the application of mats in places where vibration generation is strongest (machinery, vehicle movement, surroundings such as floors, ceilings, attic, and roofs).
Sources of vibrations affecting buildings
Oscillatory movements can be generated by:
Internal sources:
- HVAC equipment (heating, ventilation, air conditioning)
- Residents' activities (dancing, footsteps, audio systems, exercises)
- Hydraulics (toilets, drains, water supplies, pumps)
- Lifting and transportation systems (elevators, lift platforms e.g. for wheelchairs)
External sources:
- Seismic activity
- Transportation (railway lines, metro, cars, airplanes)
- Industrial activities (manufacturing plants, grocery stores, commercial services e.g. pubs)
- Construction work (building or demolishing buildings)
- Strong winds
Building vibration isolation mat - advantages
- Durability - after years of use, soundproofing and anti-vibration properties are preserved.
- Strength - resistant to compression, maintaining its insulating properties.
- Easy installation - quick and easy to install.
- Non-conductive of electricity
- Thermal conductivity - can be used in conjunction with underfloor heating.
- Moisture resistance - resistant to decay and mold formation.
Vibration dampening mats can be purchased at Power Rubber along with the selection
Vibration dampening mats for foundations - we will help with calculations!
Vibration isolation mats for foundations isolate building structures against external and internal sources of noise and vibration. The construction vibration-isolating mat reduces impact noise in construction, positively affecting its durability. Building protection against vibrations is used in supermarkets, hotels, hospitals, production halls and during the modernization of residential buildings. Vibration insulation of buildings eliminates mechanical and acoustic vibrations, which also positively affects the comfort of people staying in them.
