Laboratory Study of Vibration Isolation Performance of Needle Felt Coir Latex Composite (NFCLC) Trench Type Wave Barriers

Ground vibrations can be caused by various sources such as traffic, construction activities, and industrial machinery. These propagate through the ground into adjacent structures or environment. Predicting controlling are essential in fields, transportation, construction, activities. Regulations guidelines have been developed many countries to manage impact of on people structures. Open In-filled trenches practiced barriers for mitigating engineering practices. Coir latex wave highly sustainable barrier that combines natural strength coir fibers with durability weather-resistant properties latex. The vibration isolation performance in-filled using Latex composite was evaluated laboratory model studies. study assessed factors, trench geometry, content, material properties, trenches' performance. an equal fiber content ratio demonstrated over 75% efficiency, indicating its effectiveness a solution.
