Road traffic evaluation at S4
• Difference between traffic at 17:50 and at midnight, 00:05 (15 minute averages),@ 1 Hz, 79 nm vs. 20 nm respectively. 12 Hz, 16 Hz, 24 Hz lines are seen in the midnight spectra, most probably due to motors running in the ceramic factoryfactory.
• Instantaneous substantial variations up to 123 nm )@ 1 Hz.

Road traffic evaluation at S5
The slab registers the traffic as it is low frequency noise, but the amplitudes are lower. There are instantaneous fluctuations, for example, 67 nm at 1 Hz is registered and a very clear bump at 6 Hz, due to traffic in the road is detected.

Road traffic simulated by truck at S4
•Truck driving on the road nearby the warehouse could simulate the traffic in the late afternoon Traffic at 17:50 @ 1 Hz is 79 nm compared with truck at 21:57 late afternoon. Traffic at 17:50 @ 1 Hz is 79 nm compared with truck at 21:57 which is 69 nm at this frequency region.
• Minute by minute fluctuations can get up to 85 nm.

Road traffic simulated by truck at S5
Smaller amplitude of vertical vibration is registered at S5 wrt to S4. Two lines @ 16 and 24 Hz are however detected on the slab which are due to the motors of the 16 and 24 Hz are however detected on the slab which are due to the motors of the factory. @ 1 Hz, S5 registers a movement of 37 nm, S4 registers 68 nm (15 minutes average files).

Comparison S5 vs S4 due to jackhammer
The slab dampens all high frequency components generated by the jack hammer. The vertical vibration amplitude @ 1 Hz is 81 nm measured at S4 and 44 nm at S5.

Comparison S5 vs S4 due to jackhammer
A jackhammer was used to generate high frequency noise (> 10 Hz). Many peaks are seen at 11, 18, 22, 33, 44, 55, 68 Hz which are due to jackhammer, plus the lines at 15 16 18 20 Hz due to mills and motors of the ceramic factory @ 1Hz lines at 15, 16, 18, 20 Hz due to mills and motors of the ceramic factory. @ 1Hz, 41 nm of vibration is registered on S5 compared with 135 nm on S4. The critical slab seems to dampen high frequency technical noise.

Comparison S5 vs S4 due to road traffic
A comparison of 15 minute average files shows that the ALBA slab dampens high frequency noise, but the low frequency noise, due to traffic is not affected. @ 1 Hz, the amplitude measured at S5 is 54 nm at S4 is 64 nm
