Sound then becomes noise when it starts to bother us.

Noise may not only be unpleasant for people, it can also affect our health. This is especially true of persistent noise in everyday life.

Noise as a health hazard

A continuous sound level of 60 decibels can cause stress during sleep, sound levels above 80 decibels can affect health. The limit is 130 decibels. At this level, people will automati-cally close their ears.

Noise and traffic

Traffic is by far the largest source of noise. The population is most affected by street noise, as more than 80 per cent of traffic noise is caused by cars, lorries, buses and motorcycles. But air and rail traffic also con-tribute to the noise pollution of a region.

With the PHONOBLOC® product range, DELTA BLOC International has devised structural measures along traffic-congested

roads and railway tracks to protect residents from excessive noise pollution.

Sound absorption versus sound insulation

The two most important criteria

Sound absorption has so far been defined in categories (A1-A5 in the case of sound absorp-tion and B1-B4 in the case of sound insulation). Information on the specific capacity is pro-vided by the individual values.

Sound absorption DLα in accordance with EN 1793-1 (road) or EN 16272-1 (rail) describes the effect of a protection system on the side of the noise source.

Sound insulation DLR in accordance with EN 1793-2 (road) or EN 16272-2 (rail) describes the reduction of the noise level of a protection system for residents behind the noise source. It is given by the "difference between impinging sound" and measured sound following "penetra-tion of the noise protection system" on the side facing away from the sound.

Sound absorption versus sound insulation Absorption groups Sound absorption

Noise protection without compromises

PHONOBLOC® HB wood-concrete absorbers consist of cement-bound fresh wood chips. By using wood as a locally available and renewable raw material, CO2 emissions can be noticeably reduced.

The material structure provides for high sta-bility and maximum absorption thanks to the ideal ratio of solids and absorption-effective cavities. As a result, absorption values of up to 20dB can be achieved depending on the structure.

PHONOBLOC® PRODUCT OVERVIEWWOOD-CONCRETE NOISE BARRIER WALLS (HB)

Effective and environmentally friendly noise protection for people and nature

1 format – customisable design and colours.

Attractive surface structure

By combining a variety of standard structures, aspirational landscape architects can utilise the interplay between light and shade. The profile and the natural colour of the wall are perceived as natural and varied even from a great distance.

The absorption body with a length of 50cm and a width of 25cm is ideal for designing noise barriers. They are also easy to handle.

Grey concrete has long been a thing of the past!

Architects and planners can use PHONOBLOC® to make the most of the entire colour palette.

To ensure a harmonious landscape design, the absorption cladding is available in different shades of integrated natural colours.

For special colour effects, the surfaces can be painted with standard RAL colours.

PHONOBLOC® ARCHITECTURE

Individual and harmonic landscaping

Optimal noise protection, harmoniously integrated into the landscape

With PHONOBLOC® HB absorber blocks a multitude of landscaping designs are possible.

Combinations of different absorber surface shades and structures blend particularly well into the landscape. Steps in elevation are compensated by angled panels rather than sudden steps. Steel supports are covered by highly absorbent cladding and are therefore not visible to passing drivers. Especially appealing are PHONOBLOC® HB elements, that can be combined with appealing, transparent windows.

The same kind of design can be achieved over bridges by replacing the concrete support element with a light-wall substructure. This reduces the overall weight of the system from 400kg/m2 to less than 150kg/m2.

Easy installation and effective noise protection

PHONOBLOC® HB wall claddings are ideally suited for retrofitting and for special areas such as flood protection areas.

Like all PHONOBLOC® HB products, PHONOBLOC® HB offer optimum absorption values and a wide range of advantages and highest quality.

PHONOBLOC® HBWOOD-CONCRETE WALL CLADDING

Noise protection for existing reflecting walls and special-purpose solutions

Austrian railway approval for both installation systems

Installation: adhesive and dowels

PHONOBLOC® HB absorbers can easily be installed to existing walls with an adhesive and dowels. This type of application is referred to as wall cladding and perfectly withstands the adhesive/tensile tests.

This type of application is particularly popular:

X at the entrance/exit area of a tunnel

X on reflecting supporting walls

X noise protection for workers in industrial and commercial installations

Installation: aluminium rail system

The absorber blocks can also be installed on aluminium rails. This application method is used if the substructure is uneven. The system provides for further advantages, for example in flood protection areas, where air circulation must be ensured.

Preferred application areas:

X on existing, uneven substructures

X in flood protection areas

Maximum safety – maximum noise protection

The innovative way of integrating road restraint systems directly into the noise barrier wall offers numerous advantages. The noise bar-rier wall can be positioned closer to the noise source – this considerably increases the noise protection effect. Consequently, the height can be reduced, which not only improves the appearance but also lowers the cost.

DELTABLOC® LSW – the versatile series:

Tested in accordance with EN 1317 (restraint systems) and EN 14388 (noise protection).

DELTABLOC® LSW SERIES

Advantages:

X higher efficiency by positioning close to the noise source

X no additional road restraint system required

X space-saving installation thanks to a narrow working width

X free-standing without elaborate foundations

X fast to install and remove

X suitable for temporary and permanent use

X BASt-approved in accordance with module M08a and M08b

Mobile noise protection DELTABLOC® LSW along the Berliner Ring motorway

For the first time, 1.5km noise barrier wall and vehicle restraint system move with the construction site. The integrated DELTABLOC® noise barrier wall can be seen on the A10 motorway near Potsdam until 2019.

The A10 "Berliner Ring" motorway between Potsdam and Nuthetal is being widened from 6 to 8 lanes. With an aver-age traffic volume of 90,000 vehicles per day, residents need to tolerate increased noise levels during the construction period. To keep the noise to a tolerable level, DELTA BLOC Deutschland has been commissioned with the installation of a temporary noise barrier system.

A total of 1,490 meters of the integrated noise barrier DB 100 LSW-M were delivered within only four weeks. Most of the 4.0m long and 4.5m high panels were installed in night shifts with ongoing traffic so that commuter and heavy goods vehicles could pass through the construction sites more easily during the day.

NOISE BARRIERS

Noise protection installations on roads are subjected to a number of loads (e.g. wind, pressure and suction, tare).

In addition, noise protection installations can be exposed to the impact of stones or other objects hurled by vehicle tyres as well as, in some countries, dynamic loads in winter when snow is cleared by winter utility vehicles. The deformations that occur under such loads during the expected service life must in no way render the noise protection installations use-less.

To meet these stringent road traffic requirements, all PHONOBLOC® products have been tested by accredited inspection bodies:

X Absorption test report per absorber type

f in accordance with EN 1993-1


X Sound insulation for noise barrier system



X Measurements of the sound reflection index
