CALMFLOOR is a revolutionary new out-of-the-box active mass damper (AMD) for reducing floor vibrations. Designed and patented by world-leading vibration serviceability experts at FSD Active Limited, CALMFLOOR brings to market the only widely deployable active vibration control system for floors.
CALMFLOOR is a low-cost and low-carbon solution, proven to transform building performance, value and embodied carbon by eradicating unwanted floor vibration using advanced feedback control technology. CALMFLOOR AMDs can be deployed in existing and retrofit buildings, as well as new-build structures. They offer unparalleled effectiveness in long-span, open-plan spaces, outperforming alternatives and reducing floor plate vibrations by as much as 90%.
All this is achieved without the need for structural intervention, which is expensive and disruptive. This game-changing technology is delivered via 67kg CALMFLOOR units that direct multi-frequency control precisely to the identified hotspots that need it. CALMFLOOR is ultra-low maintenance, provides real-time performance monitoring via an online portal, and can be installed in under a day.
This technology gives unrivalled design flexibility to deliver architectural ambitions and achieve Net Zero targets across high-performance, low-vibration, comfortable and compliant environments. It is the embodiment of FSD Active’s vision to deliver significant structural performance benefits using advanced active technologies.
CALMFLOOR has been installed in sites across UK, Europe and USA. It is making particular waves across the global life sciences arena thanks to its unique ability to reduce floor vibration to within lab-standard vibration response limits, facilitating a seamless repurposing of vacant office space to life sciences applications.
