GERB Workshops 2024

Following the success of our last year’s programs, we are delighted to bring you an even more dynamic and impactful series of workshops tailored to inspire and empower. In addition to our in person events, we will once again be offering 1-hour Lunch & Learn sessions, designed to provide you with essential takeaways in a short, engaging timeframe. 

Shaping Tomorrow's Structures Today with Isolation, Vibration Control and Seismic Protection

Our workshop speaker are carefully chosen experts, each at the forefront of their respective fields. They bring unparalleled expertise in various disciplines, including:

 

  • Vibration isolation in buildings and building components
  • Vibration isolation in infrastructure with a focus on rail transportation
  • Supplemental damping with Tuned Mass Dampers
  • Elastic support for industrial machinery
  • Earthquake protection systems

Workshops

Choose from the following workshop topics and dates or just simply sign-up for all of them. You find our sign-up form below, feel free to leave us a message in case you prefer to have a session tailored for your entire team with a special focus or different date. Your learning experience is our priority, and we look forward to build up a session that meet your objectives.

*NEW* #1 Retro-fit Vibration Isolation of Buildings

online deepdive (1h)

 

Vibration isolation, in particular using low-frequency steel spring or elastomeric bearings, is an effective way to utilize inner-city construction sites subject to high levels of ground-borne vibration. But what about existing structures? Learn how GERB has dealt with this problem in two hotel projects in London and Barcelona.   

 

Date: 26.11.2024 | 14:00-15:00 h CET  

#2 Trackbed Isolation: Steel Spring Systems vs. NOVODAMP® Systems

online lunch&learn (1h)

 

Urbanization & Densification require not only innovative urban developments, but also an increased use of vibration control systems. Vibration control systems are not only deployed to protect the recipient, such as residential buildings, but also directly at the source of vibration – in the trackbed. Depending on the project, various systems present themselves, and this workshop will shed light on the diverse options available.  

 

Dates: upon request.

#3 Resilience Through Supplemental Damping

online lunch&learn (1h)

 

Tuned Mass Dampers find applicability across a range of structures, with optimal effectiveness observed in slender and lightweight constructions like expansive floors, towers, footbridges, and more. In this presentation, we will acquaint you with potential applications, elaborate on factors to consider for the ideal Tuned Mass Damper specifications, and draw insights from diverse project instances to enrich your understanding.

 

Date: upon request.

#4 Vibration Control of Machinery: Basic

online lunch&learn (1h)

 

Vibrations can be controlled – wherever they occur. They can be caused by an endless number of types of machines. In our basic workshop, we give an overview of different machine types and how to come to the best solution for a vibration isolation system. More deepdive sessions on selected machines types and topics such as centrifuges, forging hammers and heat pumps will follow.

 

Dates: upon request.

#5 Seismic Protection of Buildings, Machinery and Equipment

online lunch&learn (1h)

 

Many regions live with the constant threat of earthquakes. Machines, facilities, buildings, and bridges are damaged or destroyed and human lives are in danger. GERB develops and delivers technical solutions to protect against such forces of nature. Our spring elements and Viscodampers® are successfully applied for protection against earthquakes.

 

Dates: upon request.

Meanwhile, feel free to visit our Technical Insights area to learn more about our applications in project case studies!
