Rail Tracks
Vibrations can be controlled – wherever they occur
Vibration isolation and elasticity solutions for rail tracks
Prevent vibration and ground-borne noise effectively – with GERB solutions for elastically supported tracks
Transport systems running on rails are the best option for overcoming the traffic problems of the 21st century. Today, they belong to the most modern and comfortable forms of transporting human beings and goods. However, all train systems cause noise and vibrations. Hence, where tracks and buildings are close to each other, conflicts are often inevitable. Ground-borne noise and vibrations are perceived as disturbances.
Elastic support systems from GERB reduce the transfer of ground-borne noise and vibrations of train traffic, regardless where they are deployed, inside buildings or in nearby areas. They are appreciated and recommended by experts throughout the world as being efficient and reliable systems for reducing vibrations.
GERB systems are suitable for all types of rail traffic systems:
- High speed
- Heavy haul
- Trams
- Subways
- Urban mass transit
- Magnetic levitation
Project references
Fields of application
- Railways
- Stiffness transition zones
- Floating slab tracks
- Short slabs
- Urban mass transit
- Grade sections
- Elevated tracks
- Tunnels
- Bridges
- Viaducts
- Depots
- Inspection pits
- ...
