Road surface acoustics

Grolimund + Partner is the Swiss leader in measurements to determine the acoustic quality of road surfaces.

Road surface acoustics – we are the leader.

Determining the acoustic quality of road surfaces.

Our services include measurements to determine the acoustic quality of road surfaces, e.g. with the CPX trailer measurement method, as well as specific measurement procedures and analyses for the acoustic optimisation of road surfaces. Our customers benefit from comprehensive strategic and technical advice on the planning, installation and maintenance of quiet road surfaces.

Supposedly identical road surfaces can sometimes have very different noise effects, or the acoustic effect can change over time. With our pavement acoustic impact analyses, we get to the bottom of the causes. To maintain the long-term acoustic effect of the road surfaces, we develop solution proposals based on pollution degree and surface texture analyses.

3D texture measurements - visual method for determining the surface properties of road pavements

3D texture measurements - visual method for determining the surface properties of road pavements

Low-noise road pavements are used as effective noise abatement measures in Switzerland. To determine the actual effect of low-noise road surfaces, G+P uses numerous measurement methods. While the most common measurement methods record the properties of road pavements acoustically (e.g. with microphones), 3D texture measurements can be used to measure and assess the visual properties of road pavements that are relevant for noise generation. G+P has been carrying out such 3D texture measurements with its own photogrammetry scanner since 2022.

Innovative and efficient: G+P relies on artificial intelligence from vialytics

Grolimund + Partner AG is proud to announce a partnership with vialytics, an innovative IT company from Germany. vialytics has developed a groundbreaking solution for systematic road condition monitoring based on artificial intelligence that fundamentally changes the way road condition data is collected. We are pleased to present vialytics and the synergies gained from the collaboration.
