As the need for residential development continues to increase with population growth, the need for noise barrier walls around these communities are also a requirement.

With tight constraints due to the Region of Waterloo trail system, Silentium Group was called upon to provide a turn-key noise barrier wall solution. This project was recently completed by Silentium Group managing all facets of the project, including permits, engineering/design, material procurement and installation.

Silentium Group Collaborates with Solar Leader, Mitrex, to Bring the World’s First Solar-Powered, Sound-Absorptive Highway Noise Barrier.

TORONTO, ON, Sept 2022 – Silentium Group, Inc. is an industry-leading, turnkey noise barrier & retaining wall solutions provider responsible for bringing innovative, sustainable, eco-friendly products and expertise to the civil construction marketplace.

From project conception to completion, Silentium Group manages all facets of noise barrier and retaining wall projects including engineering & design, material supply and installation

Through collaboration with Mitrex, a photovoltaic noise barrier (PVNB) is in development for the North American market, offering a Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) of 0.7 through ASTM C423 testing, solar power production, and enhanced aesthetics for use on roads and highways.

The solar power produced by these new, innovative noise barriers can be directly supplied and used by nearby infrastructure. With a capacity of up to 22 W/SF, the solar power produced by these new, innovative noise barriers will transform our roadways into energy generators while maintaining the structure’s functionality. On average, each kilometer will be equal to a 1.2 MW power plant. The PVNBs can even be offered in virtually any design, including opaque and transparent options.

The truly revolutionary aspect of the PVNB panel technology is their noise absorptive characteristics. With performance comparable to existing absorptive noise barriers, the ability of these PVNBs to reduce unwanted traffic noise while also producing energy is the first type of noise barrier wall system of its kind.

Together, Silentium Group and Mitrex have already begun working with the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO) to assist in establishing product approval guidelines for this new technology by integrating Mitrex absorptive PVNB panels into existing MTO-approved noise wall system designs.

As these new guidelines are being established, Silentium Group has selected some of their existing noise barrier wall systems throughout North America to begin retrofitting with PVNB panels. These pilot projects with government entities are aimed to capture data and analyze the performance of PVNB absorptive panels for use in future projects.

“The North American transportation sector is a major contributor of greenhouse gas emissions in our economy. The effects of climate change are already impacting how we travel and damaging our infrastructure. This means the transportation infrastructure market must be one of the biggest parts of the solution” says Travis Welch, President at Silentium Group, Inc. “The demand for sustainable transportation infrastructure technology such as PVNB’s is a step in the right direction to help fight the climate crisis we are in.”

Solar noise barrier key features:

  • Sound absorptive noise barriers for any roadway
  • Integrated solar technology made in Canada
  • Production capacity of up to 22W/SF of energy
  • Aesthetic options including opaque, semi-opaque, and transparent
  • Low embodied carbon coupled with clean energy generation; a negative carbon embodiment of over -1000 kg of CO2 per SM.

Silentium Group “Raises the Roof’ with it’s Light-Weight Absorptive Rooftop Gravity Barrier System

By twelch_6wku8674
Friday, November 19th, 2021

Silentium Group was pleased to assist our Client and Lowes Canada by providing a turn-key noise mitigation solution with our light-weight, PVC, absorptive, rooftop, Gravity Barrier System. 

Being both fully flexible and self-supporting, SGI’s Gravity Barrier System was an ideal choice for our client when roof top penetration was not an option for screening multiple RTU’s. 

Our Canadian-made, absorptive PVC perforated panels were an ideal choice on this project, with SGI also being able to provide our clients with our lightweight steel insulated panel system with a plethora of aesthetic options.

The SGI Gravity Barrier system had a seamless installation, with no disruption to the Lowes store below. Our solution met all acoustical and structural requirements, including ASTM C423-17 (sound absorption) and ASTM E-90-9 (transmission loss) testing.   

Through our turnkey, single-sourced delivery model, SGI continues to expand its footprint with its lightweight noise barrier products in the ICI market. From ground to rooftop, SGI can provide solutions for all your noise mitigation needs.

Silentium Group’s Integrated Mock-up Moves Forward on Davenport Diamond Noise Wall Project

By twelch_6wku8674
Tuesday, September 28th, 2021

Silentium Group’s absorptive noise barrier and integrated architectural cladding system mock-up was reviewed and approved by Metrolinx. Silentium Group’s integrated design checks all the boxes with numerous required components including earth retention, noise reduction and aesthetic continuity.

     

Next steps include full noise wall material procurement with installation commencing in coming months.
Silentium Group is proud to be in partnership with Stubbe’s Precast providing all precast noise wall components on this project.

Silentium Group to Stand Tall on OLRT Phase 2 MSF Noise Wall Extension

By twelch_6wku8674
Friday, July 28th, 2017

The Maintenance and Storage Facility (MSF), located on Belfast Road, is a key feature of the Confederation Line, Ottawa’s Light Rail Transit (LRT) project.

While looking to extend onto an existing noise wall for continuous noise mitigation, OLRT Constructors chose Silentium Group’s MTO DSM Eco Sound Barrier System due its superior noise wall panel spanning capabilities of over 4 meters; along with appeasing local residents with an intricate stone print pattern panel design as shown below.

Silentium Groups noise wall system will be designed to connect to an existing noise barrier and stand tall at 7 meters with a length of over half of a kilometer. Construction of Silentium Group’s Eco Sound Barrier to commence in August of 2017.
