Getzner Presents Elastic Building Isolation For Urban Infrastructure

Getzner Werkstoffe presents advanced solutions for vibration isolation and tremor reduction at the BAU 2027 trade fair, taking place in Munich from January 11 to 15, 2027. The technologies showcased at Booth 430 in Hall B6 aim at the acoustic decoupling of construction projects to protect building structures in densely populated urban spaces.

Core Technology And System Architecture
Customised systems for vibration isolation and the elastic suspension of buildings form the core of the technological presentation. The system architecture comprises materials for targeted acoustic decoupling that prevent the transmission of structure-borne noise and impact sound from both external sources like traffic and internal building services. The physical hardware is complemented by digital planning tools, proprietary online calculation programmes, and verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPD data), which enable architects and engineers to accurately dimension and specify the materials.

Deployment And Implementation
The implementation of these vibration protection solutions requires precise adjustment to the respective building structure and local interference sources. Getzner supports the deployment process through technical consulting prior to the start of planning, detailed design of the decoupling elements, and professional on-site team briefings. During the trade fair, technical experts at the booth will evaluate specific integration strategies through specialist presentations to assist investors and specialist planners in making informed location decisions on building plots heavily affected by vibrations.

Industrial Applications
The showcased vibration isolation solutions are primarily aimed at urban building construction, project development, and renovation projects in existing buildings. Specific technical use cases include building over subway lines, constructing properties along railway tracks, and realising mixed-use buildings where commercial and residential spaces are combined without disruption. The use of these elastic bearings ensures high process stability during construction in existing structures and facilitates densification on areas previously limited by vibrations.

Operational Impacts And Performance Metrics
The professional decoupling of interference sources minimises structure-borne sound transmission and protects the physical building structure against long-term vibration-induced fatigue. Acoustic isolation reduces usage conflicts in multifunctional properties and increases acoustic comfort for users. By unlocking vibration-affected areas for new construction projects and increasing flexibility in building utilisation, these technological solutions directly contribute to the future viability and long-term value retention of real estate.
