SERVICE PORTFOLIO
WHAT ROLE DO VIBRATIONS PLAY?
We support you in the areas of consulting, measurement, monitoring and prognosis as well as calculation and simulation and ensure that dynamic stresses do not damage buildings and their surroundings. Of course, we always adhere to the applicable standards, such as DIN 4150.
This saves you unnecessary costs for possible plan changes, construction delays, legal disputes or remediation and ensures optimal use and safety of the buildings.
OUR EXPERTISE – THE FOUNDATION
YOU CAN BUILD ON
________
Our colleague Clarissa Rapps – head of the business unit Structural Dynamics and Demolition Planning – has been officially appointed Demolition Consultant by the German Demolition Association.
We are accredited by the German Accreditation Body according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018 for tests in the fields of determination of noise and vibration, noise measurements on wind turbines, noise and vibration at the workplace, aircraft noise, building acoustics, immission control module. Our DAkkS registration number: D-PL-19254-01-00.
Our work is the foundation you can build on, both literally and proverbially – we are certified and quality-assured according to DIN EN ISO 9001:2008.
According to § 29b of the Federal Immission Control Act (BImSchG), we are a recognized independent measuring agent for the determination of emissions and immissions of noise and vibrations.

RESTORED BELL TOWERS
WHEN MACHINES NEED PEACE AND QUIET
People need concentration and a quiet environment if they are to achieve precise results. Many machines are no different. Whether it's the printing press in a publishing house, the turbine in a power plant, the MRI machine in a neurologist's office, a clean room laboratory or a sensitive IT system – if the environment is affected by vibrations, precision and the ability to work suffer.
With our extensive experience in machine and construction dynamics, we find optimal solutions – regardless of whether it is a matter of a durably designed plant in an earthquake zone or the temporary vibration protection of a laboratory next to which a high-emission construction site is planned.
BLASTING VALLEY BRIDGE EISERN
The blasting of the over 300 meter long highway bridge was designed and calculated by Wölfel Engineering.
HOW BIG CAN THE BELL BE?
One of our areas of expertise is the calculation and design of restoration and renewal measures for bell towers. For centuries, these structures have had to withstand the strong vibrations caused by ringing bells, some of which weigh several tons. In doing so, we not only ensure a stable tower masonry, but also provide for the bell-musical fine-tuning and thus perfectly prepare the further work of structural engineers and bell founders.
