SEER I-BLOCK

(Wall Interlocking Block Damper)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION / FEATURES

SEER l-BLOCK is a wall inter-locking block damper that applying Inherent Damping in Building to reduce vibration by external forces as much as 60% in opposing phases of building motion resulted in the reeducation of building sway. it is produced in different shaped with customised arrangement depending on the building natural frequency. SEER I-BLOCK is easy to handle and acoustically proof wall to reduce noise

NEEDS

Architectural Internal Design.

Construction cost reduction.

Greenmark (Developed country required a better system for damping, for the reduction in construction time)

Damping system for structure with earthquake excitation

Encouraged internal wall partition especially in the medium-rise building (4 to 10 Storey building).

Government requirement with a greenhouse that sustainability recycle material for the construction industry.

Consultants design in ventilation ducting system and framing system to reduce the cost of design as construction costs reduced.

Construction works getting advanced with reduced construction timeline, and ease of method of construction.

APPROACH

Uses prefabricated panels according to the uniqueness of the building designed

Uses digital design tools and robotic construction to ensure a perfect fit for physical implementation and fast construction quality finish

Uses designs with minimal columns and maximum floor space with no awkward corners.

BENEFITS

Increased building damping system.

Architectural spaces and provision maintained with better heat insulation acoustic proof on walls.

Building loads reduced. cost of construction for piling and superstructure design reduced.

Recycled material application

Industry diversification of construction material thus providing work opportunity.

COMPETITORS

Public; Prejudices from existing industry, difficult to shift out of conforming zone with material that the public has been comfortable with.

Contractor; Adaptation from standard practice to the new system, training of work method and approach by the suitable practitioner (specialist)

Manufacturer; Precaster, Acoustic wall supplier, (bricks and partition board)

Architecture; consultants' practices with existing building material, lack of Safety Data Sheet for consultants' references.

Educator; unfamiliarity of the system (earthquake)
