Recycling low-noise SDA asphalt

Over the past years, several hundred kilometres of highly effective low-noise SDA 4 road surfaces have been constructed across Switzerland. Many of these sections are now approaching an age at which replacement will soon be required. One aspect has so far received little attention: these specialised surfaces cannot be recycled as easily as conventional road materials. This issue will become increasingly relevant in the coming years. By 2030, more than 200,000 tonnes of SDA material are expected to arise and will need to be reused in a technically sound manner.

3D City Models as a Tool for Noise Control

How loud are our cities – today and in the future? Using the example of the city of Uster, G+P shows how traffic noise can be made visible in realistic 3D city models. These detailed virtual representations of the real environment provide a solid basis for planning, communication and targeted noise mitigation.

One year of communicating values

In January 2024, as "The New Boss", I explained in a video statement what is important to us and to me at G+P. After almost a year as the new CEO, it's time for a little look back. Our values take centre stage. Values are a key success factor, especially for SMEs like us.

«At G+P, I particularly appreciate the mutual helpfulness as well as the opportunity to specialize and develop within different subject areas. Due to the diversity of our projects, I am constantly faced with new and interesting challenges in my day-to-day work.»

«Every new order is an exciting challenge. I enjoy satisfying our customers' needs with our high quality standards. Regardless of whether it is a short consultation on site or a large project with complex measurements and modeling - even with more than 15 years of experience in acoustics, no project is the same and the motivation is constantly high!»

«Working as a noise protection engineer has opened my eyes to the various impacts of noise on people's health. At G+P, I have the opportunity to work in a young and dynamic company, and I can take part in the fight against noise pollution, actively contributing to the well-being of the Swiss population through the realisation of varied and exciting projects.»

«Even after 17 years at G+P, I deal with new issues and challenges almost every day. The solutions are often developed in interdisciplinary and cross-branch teams. This confrontation with exciting technical issues and the exchange with a highly qualified team motivate me again and again.»

Team

«At G+P, I appreciate the good teamwork. What motivates me in working on the projects is that we contribute to a more comfortable use of the buildings. Comfort is related to global warming (summer heat insulation) and the ever-increasing density and its noise development in the building itself (sound insulation and room acoustics).»

«Noisy industrial plants are often located on the roofs of high buildings. For measurement campaigns, I therefore regularly find myself at lofty heights and can enjoy the panorama from unique locations. The combination of field work (with foresight), the analytical and editorial work in the office and the variety of noise sources and projects make the work in the outdoor noise team at Grolimund+Partner very varied.»

«The supportive working environment and pleasant cooperation at G+P allows me to fully contribute my strengths. A high degree of diversity in the tasks to be solved requires a great deal of flexibility, responsibility and inventiveness. Attributes that are valued and encouraged at G+P and that are needed to develop good solutions together.»

«At G+P, I can apply my expertise to a huge variety of projects, from architectural competitions to interior design - whether it's an assessment of the volumetrics or the proportion of glass in a giant superstructure or choosing the right curtain fabric for the acoustics in a living room. I find the exchange with customers and other construction experts enriching and instructive. I particularly appreciate the friendly atmosphere at G+P, the uncomplicated exchange and flexible organization.»

«With the CPX measurement system, we are on the road all over Switzerland measuring the acoustic effect of road surfaces. During these measurements, I discovered many beautiful places throughout Switzerland and was inspired by the different landscapes: sunsets in the canton of Fribourg, summer days on Lake Maggiore or winding drives up unknown mountain passes. The perfect balance to the daily office routine.»

«Over the past 30 years, G+P has enabled me to realize all of my professional visions, wishes and ideas and to have a challenging, exciting and successful career. As an entrepreneur, I would like to offer this creative freedom and these development opportunities to as many young, committed and motivated employees in our team as possible who want to seize this opportunity.»
