Concrete noise barrier – robust and durable solutions

The noise barrier or sound wall is a practical solution on busy roads or railway lines. Residents can be effectively protected from excessive exposure to noise and sound. Noise barriers do not always score with an attractive appearance. But we have a solution for that: RAU manufactures noise barriers that meet requirements for noise insulation, sustainability, and appearance.

One part of the range at RAU is the concrete noise barrier. Concrete has been used for decades in road construction, house building, and civil engineering. It is a material that is as robust as it is durable and can be designed in many different ways. The construction of noise barriers is planned a way that the noise protection is permanent and the maintenance low. Concrete is an excellent material for insulating noise sources.

Why a concrete noise barrier can be the right solution for you

When looking for suitable noise barriers, the material plays an important role. The noise barrier made of concrete at a fair price by RAU offers several positive characteristics. Thanks to the dense material that is processed here, excellent airborne sound insulation is guaranteed. At the same time, the concrete noise barriers require very little maintenance and provide privacy from roads or railway lines.

For easy maintenance and control, RAU offers the option of fitting the walls with doors or gates. Thanks to the tested and certified construction method, you receive high-quality concrete noise barrier walls that are very robust. Due to the strong resistance of concrete to environmental influences, a noise protection fence made of this material will last for many years.

Concrete noise protection by RAU: structure and properties

The RAU noise protection system is based on a deep foundation with foundation piles. Drilled piles or driven casings are used here. The base is cast from concrete. This is also the basis for the excellent sound insulation. The possibility of combining concrete noise barriers with other systems gives you custom design options.

The individual construction elements are usually manufactured in-house at RAU, thus guaranteeing you a flexible design for your noise protection. If you wish to install doors and gates at certain intervals, this is possible without any problems. The complete systems from RAU are certified and tested. This means that the optimum sound insulation and absorption values can also be reviewed any time. If you have any questions, our experts will be happy to help you.

Concrete sound insulation wall: products in our range

The RAU product range includes various designs for concrete sound walls. The example of Waghäusel from our references shows a classic concrete noise barrier. If you want a green solution, the design implemented in Emmendingen is the right choice for you. This is a combination of glass and concrete elements that can easily be greened.

Environmental noise barriers are particularly popular in residential areas and near allotments. They have several advantages. If you add plants to a concrete noise barrier, you create a new natural habitat for insects and small animals. An individual consultation can clarify which green plants are suitable for the respective area. Here you can also find out to what extent combinations with other materials can be implemented to achieve the desired greening objectives.
