ARCHAEOLOGICAL COLLECTION

THE PROJECT AND ITS REQUIREMENT

The Bavarian State Archaeological Collection is the central Museum for Prehistoric and Early Medieval Archaeology. Extensive renovation work is currently underway at the museum, and a reopening will be in 2024. The general refurbishment concept also includes measures for the decoupling of impact sound from a staircase. Visitors should be protected from noise pollution in the future.

THE SOLUTION

For decoupling under the foundation of the staircase, vibration isolating Ciflex G 11 mats in 50 mm thickness were installed. Ciflex G is a composite material made of polyurethane foam. The decoupling frequency of the bearing was about 15 Hz. With this Calenberg elastic solution the transmission of structure-borne sound and secondary airborne sound from the staircase to the adjacent building sections is significantly reduced.
