MDAcoustics - Metrocenter Mall Teardown Vibration Monitoring

Описание: MD Acoustics was hired to provide long-term vibration monitoring services during the demolition of Metrocenter Mall in Phoenix, Arizona. The study focused on documenting demolition-related vibration levels and evaluating potential impacts to adjacent occupied structures.

MD Acoustics deployed time-synchronized vibration monitoring probes at nearby buildings, including the Walmart store and Life Storage facility. The monitors operated continuously, capturing second-by-second vibration data throughout demolition activities. Vibration levels were measured in peak particle velocity (PPV), with threshold-based exceedance alerts configured to provide real-time email and text notifications. Weekly vibration summary reports were prepared to document measured levels and correlate vibration data with demolition activity.

The vibration monitoring program provided real-time oversight of demolition-induced vibrations, allowing construction activities to proceed while maintaining compliance with established vibration thresholds. Continuous monitoring and reporting confirmed vibration levels remained within acceptable limits, helping protect adjacent structures, address stakeholder concerns, and support a safe and controlled demolition process.
