Structural Isolation Overview

The nature of structural isolation requires a planned and technical approach to identify the most appropriate solution for an individual project. 

Structural isolation

Repeated exposure to ground borne vibration forces can have a detrimental impact on building support structures. It is necessary therefore to reduce energy dissipation transfer by directly isolating a structure.

Isolating a structure

Projects must be consulted on an individual basis in order that the expected level of vibration can be calculated. However, as a rule, structural isolation uses soft absorptive materials to reduce the transmission of vibrations into a structure.
