Overview
Objectives
The CONFCAB project has defined, developed and validated an innovative technology that allows, through removable damping props and floating floors integrated with the cab anchors, to reduce noise and vibrations perceived in the cabin. At the same time, the technology increases the number of prefabricated cabins on the ground, reducing construction time and cost.
Results
CONFCAB developed the following complete and qualified systems:
- Bridge-bridge insulation design with removable props;
- Suspension design of cabin partition walls;
- Design of the floating floor integrated into the cabin;
The three systems are developed in an integrated way in order to create a prototype of a "cabin system".
