Discussions as well as experience show that damping is a crucial factor to reduce the destructive potential of earthquakes. GERB Viscous Wall Dampers (GVWD) are a special design of common Viscodampers®. They are installed in buildings and structures connecting different floors addressing shear deformation between them. In this position they are especially reducing interstorey drift ratios during wind or seismic excitation. https://youtu.be/jQ-OhVtYzKs Seismic energy absorption through induced damping instead of intended damage Earthquakes can have different effects on buildings depending on their duration, ground conditions and construction of the building. At the earth‘s surface, the earthquake waves cause…

GERB‘s innovative acoustic solutions for a new hotel project in a challenging urban environment The site, located in a densely built-up inner-city area, presented unique challenges due to its proximity to old buildings and a railway station, as well as being situated directly above tunnels. The client, keen on achieving a high-performance solution that matched the exceptional quality of the new hotel, sought GERB‘s expertise. The project was officially launched in March 2013. Installation commenced at the end of April 2013, beginning with initial training for the contractor provided by GERB. The actual installation work took approximately…

Elastic Support from GERB for a drop forging hammer of the Flükiger company The company Flükiger & Co. AG from Switzerland operates various drop forging hammers with impact energies between 12.5 KJ and 125 KJ at its site in Oberburg. Due to the difficult geological conditions at the installation site and the associated high demands on the bearing systems of the forging hammers, GERB carried out vibration tests in the vicinity of the forge before the initial installation. Flükiger ultimately selected a different supplier for the bearing system. Challenge In 2023, Flükiger once again turned to GERB…

With Sustainable Design: The Porta Nuova Project in Milan For many structures the main reason for the support on steel springs is the achievement of vibration isolation efficiency. Sometimes, the seismic protection can be solved as a side effect. A corresponding project example is the Porta Nuova project in Milan, Italy. It includes several building complexes such as a new metro station, parks and several underground car parks. One highlight are the green twin towers called “Bosco Verticale” (Vertical Forest), planned by the Italian architect Stefano Boeri and his partners. The numerous trees and plants arranged on the…

Innovative Engineering Ensures Safe Installation of High-Capacity Forging Machines in a Structurally Challenged Environment When designing or operating a plant, especially one with heavy machinery, ensuring stability and longevity is a top priority. Vibration from high-capacity forging hammers and presses can severely impact both the machinery and the surrounding structures. For plant operators and designers, finding effective solutions to minimize these vibrations is critical to maintaining productivity, safety, and equipment lifespan. This case study highlights an effective vibration isolation solution for a large forging hammer installed in a long-standing plant. The challenges were significant, but through innovative…
