Job details & challenges:
A new residential area has been built in the eastern part of the municipality of Alpen and we were given the task of taking care of the noise protection, which is around 380 m long and 5.7-9.4 m high. This height presented challenges that our team was able to overcome successfully. The wall was supplemented with stone baskets to break up the overall picture.
Project objective:
The aim was to erect a high noise barrier that would not be perceived as a disruptive factor and would later blend in beautifully with the landscape thanks to the greenery.
Product solution:
We solved the problem with our product RAU® Climatewall in combination with RAU® Monolith.
Results
- The RAU® climatewall fulfills all sound insulation requirements here
- Protects residents from road noise from neighboring streets
- The use of RAU® Monolith stone cages enhances the appearance of the wall
