CrossFit Floor with Jack-Up Floating Slab VT-JFS
In this post, we share some pictures from a recent project at Malmö Entré shopping center in Sweden, where RT Bygg transformed the premises into a CrossFit facility for Brave Fitness.
To minimize disturbing noise to adjacent offices, the floor was constructed with a 120mm floating concrete slab using Vibratec’s Jack-Up Spring System VT-JFS.
Effective isolation of impact noise and vibrations
This solution provides optimal conditions for both gym users and neighboring businesses.
With a successful result, the premises were recently handed over to a satisfied client and tenant.
Look through our gallery of images from the installation:

VT-JFS Floor System – Vibration Isolators for concrete floors
The floor system consists of vibration isolators that are cast into a concrete slab and then raised to provide elastic decoupling and an air gap to the subfloor. This creates a heavy floating floor with excellent vibration isolation, even at low frequencies.
