Definition: What is a mass-spring-systemA mass-spring-system always consists of these 3 components:
massspringsupport (rigid, which is best for vibration insulation, or not rigid)
It works like this:Due to the elasticity the dynamic wheel-rail-forces Fdyn are reduced.The mass „absorbs“ a large portion of the reduced dynamic forcesThe spring transmits only the remaining force to the supportLower dynamic forces on the support means also lower vibration
100 % F dyn
95 % F dyn
5 % F dyn

Definition: What is a mass-spring-systemSince there is a mass, resting on a spring, resting on a support, the mass will show an „eigenfrequency“. An eigenfrequency is the frequency, the mass-spring-system will vibrate with, if you hit it with a hammer like this:

Definition: Light and heavy mass-spring-systems
There are two kinds of mass-spring-systems:
light mass-spring-system
heavy mass-spring-system
Definitions:For a given spring the eigenfrequency of the mass-spring-system depends on the mass. The heavier the mass the lower is the eigenfrequency.
Light mass-spring-system have an eigenfrequency of about 12 Hz up to 18 Hz.
Heavy mass-spring-system have an eigenfrequency of about 5 Hz up to 12 Hz.

Where to use a mass-spring-system
A train causes dynamic forces, which in turn causes vibration.A mass-spring-system can reduce the vibration ot the track and of the surroundings by a (very) large amount.Thus the immission acting on the neighborhood is reduced as far as necessary.
![Page 10: Vibration Isolation in Railway Systems - Light and Heavy Mass Spring Systems](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051518/5695d0771a28ab9b0292904e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Where to use a mass-spring-system In detail:
Basically a mass-spring-system
reduces the vibration of the trackreduces the vibration that enters the supporting structurethus reduces the vibration that is transmitted through the groundthus reduces the vibration to neighboring buildingsthus reduces the vibration acting on • man• buildings • technical installations
Since the vibration of the building is reduced, the noise coming from the vibrating floors, walls and ceilings is also reduced

Where to use a mass-spring-system
A mass-spring-system is used for a new track if some of the following conditions are true:
Trains will have wheels with imperfections like out-of-round wheels, wheel flats, corrugation etc. There is no such thing as a perfect wheel. At least not after some operation time.
The track will not always be as perfect as it has been built, but will have defects of the rail head as well as the other components of the track. There is no such thing as a perfect track...

d y n a m i kVibration Isolation in Railway Systems -Light and Heavy Mass-Spring-Systems
Where to use a mass-spring-system
There is • a neighborhood - buildings close to the track -• that must be protected • according to local codes and standards • against vibration and noise, caused by this vibration. (This noise can be
caused by the supporting structure (bridge, elevated track) or by the floor, walls and ceiling of rooms, where people are present.)

d y n a m i kVibration Isolation in Railway Systems -Light and Heavy Mass-Spring-Systems
Where to use a mass-spring-system
Usually mass-spring-systems are used to achieve a high reduction of the
immissions.
A heavy mass-spring-system is even more efficient than a light mass-spring-
system. A heavy mass-spring-system has the highest protection efficiency.
If many buildings that must be protected do have wooden floors, a heavy mass-
spring-system must be used.

The concrete slab thickness is at least 0.2 m and will not exceed about 0.35 m.The width is about 2.7 mThe length of a concrete slab varies: it might be about 6 m, or even continuous. However a section length of about 10 to 15 m should be avoided due to disadvantegous slab eigenfrequencies.Theelastic layer is usually covering the whole footprint of the slabs.The elastic layer stiffness is selected appropriately to the eigenfrequency the mass-spring-system shall have.(Light mass-spring-system have an eigenfrequency of about 12 Hz up to 18 Hz.)The elastic layer should have the optimal amount of damping:• to reduce the slab vibrationsas well as • supplying the necessary insertion loss for the higher frequencies

How to lift the concrete componentsYou will use the lifting method in combination with discrete bearings preferably.Now how to lift the slabs?It depends:
It is very easy if the longitudinal sides are free. Then you can lift it with jacks that can be applied from the sides.
If the sides are NOT freely accessible:You must install some manholes for example like this:
![Page 24: Vibration Isolation in Railway Systems - Light and Heavy Mass Spring Systems](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051518/5695d0771a28ab9b0292904e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

How to lift the concrete componentsThe manholes must be shaped such that you can
lift the structure with mechanically or hydraulically acting jacksand
insert the bearings simultaneouslyOr: you can lift the slabs with jacks applied at the longitudinal sides. You must have holes shaped appropriately such that the jacks can be inserted and the slab can be lifted with the slabs.

To stick or not to stick?
If you require that the elements must be replaceable, you can NOT stick the elements to either the support or the slab. If a replaceability is not required there is no need to stick the elements either to support or slab: the rubber surface of top and bottom side of the bearings tolerate a certain roughness of the concrete surfaces. If the roughness exceeds the acceptable limit some viscoplastic sheets are used to smooth the surfaces. Thus it is inhibited that the rough concrete surfaces damage the rubber surfaces.Usually the horizontal forces are borne by special stop units. Thus only neglectable horizontal forces are acting upon the bearings.
Thus it follows: you will not stick (glue, cement) the bearings to the concrete.Only exception: You use precast concrete troughs or precast slabs (for example on an elevated track), where you will pour the in situ concrete later. Then you might want to stick the bearings to the concrete floor. Thus they can not be misplaced accidentally.
