[WIB Construction Method Case Study] Railway Vibration Countermeasures for Residential Areas Along Railways, January 2014, Saitama Prefecture
Railway vibrations have been reduced by half! A damping effect of approximately 4dB in the horizontal direction and about 6dB in the vertical direction has been confirmed!
In the vicinity of the planned construction site for a detached house (two-story lightweight steel frame) in Saitama Prefecture, trains frequently pass by, raising concerns about the impact of railway vibrations on the living environment. Therefore, the 'WIB method' was implemented directly beneath the house. Vibration measurements taken before and after the construction confirmed a vibration reduction effect of approximately 4 dB in the horizontal direction and about 6 dB in the vertical direction, effectively halving the railway vibrations. 【Case Overview】 ■ Construction Location: Saitama Prefecture ■ Client: Sanyu Soil Engineering Co., Ltd. ■ Vibration Source: Railway vibrations ■ Preservation Target: Houses along the railway ■ Countermeasure Work: Plate-type WIB method (honeycomb cell type) ■ Construction Position: Directly beneath the receiving side *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
