MAURER supplies protection systems against earthquakes, wind, and other vibrations for all types of construction projects. This is another seismic protection project implemented by MAURER.

This refers to the AlpspiX project in Germany. The project is called the AlpspiX Viewing Platform, serving as an observation platform. This project, implemented in Bavaria, Germany, is a 13-meter-long cantilever. For this project, MAURER supplied TMD systems to regulate vibrations.

The key advantages of installing TMD systems:

Less vibration
Reduced material (or metal) fatigue
Longer maintenance intervals and extended service life
In this project, 4 TMD systems were installed, each measuring 650x650 mm and 340 mm in height. These TMDs were installed at the furthest point of the cantilever since the highest vibration was observed there. Herewith, hydraulic dampers, i.e., internal braking systems that convert motion into heat, were installed inside the TMDs.
These 4 TMDs were installed at the bottom of the cantilever in such a way as not to disturb people.
