HOTEL ACCOMMODATION IN A PROMINENT LOCATION


RESILIENT SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR A HOTEL COMPLEX ALONG THE RAILWAY LINE

THE PROJECT AND ITS REQUIREMENT

The 1,7 ha building plot, which borders directly on the station site on one side, will accommodate three international hotel chains with underground car park. These buildings are to be perceived by rail travellers as a new calling card on their arrival in Düsseldorf. Accordingly, greeen! architects created a high-quality and representative architecture. The completion of the complex is planned for 2021. In order to protect the buildings against vibrations and secondary airborne noise caused by adjacent rail traffic, a decoupling was necessary

THE SOLUTION

The vibration isolation of the entire building complex was carried out with only one type of bearing, Cibatur.
Cibatur is laid horizontally under the floor slab on the blinding layer in one and two layers over the entire surface. In addition, the basement walls were also covered vertically with Cibatur over the entire area.
The protective measure was implemented with natural frequencies of 8 Hz or 11 Hz.

The benefits:

  • Horizontal and vertical bearing with only one product: Cibatur
  • Cibatur absorbs the different soil and earth pressures, with almost constant dynamic properties or natural frequencies
  • Easy on-site installation, without complicated installation plans
