Do you have a vibration disturbance, but unsure which vibration isolation solution would be suitable? Then this tool is for you.
To use the tool, select your equipment category and type, and then follow through the available options to generate a specification. Please contact us or refer to the following dropdown list for further help
The Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) generated the “CIBSE Guide B4 – Noise and Vibration Control for Building Services Systems”, to assist with specifying the products required to effectively isolate vibration within a building. We have built this tool to enable the specification of Mason UK products and systems to fully comply with the CIBSE Guide B4.
- Select the equipment that is causing the vibration disturbance:
- Equipment category
- Equipment type
- Specific equipment details (if applicable)
- Choose the relevant power range, in either (or both if applicable):
- RPM
- HP/kW
- Lastly, select your floor span. This is the maximum joist/beam/slab span between columns or supporting walls in the location of your equipment, and is noted as “up to” to allow for the worst case. If ground or basement, select the “Ground Supported Slab or Basement” option.
- See a diagram here to help explain
- The specified products and system will help to determine the best solution for your project.
- The results will be given as a specification, and not specific product reference names or numbers. Mason UK will be able to select specific products for your application.
- The specification is not exhaustive, and for guidance only. Please contact us if you would like to investigate specific product selections, performance predictions, and to gain further advice.
- Your specification can be copied to clipboard (text only), sent to you in an email, and or saved/printed as a pdf. See the buttons under “SPECIFICATION RESULTS” for these functions.
- Use the specification text and images in your specification.
- Send the specification pdf to your client for discussion.

Restrained Spring Mounts
For this specification we recommend the following product(s). Please follow the link(s) to view additional information on the Mason UK website.
- Copy specification to your clipboard (may not copy in all browsers)
Specification
Product:
Anti-vibration mounting to be type SLR (Restrained Spring Mounts) or SLRSO (Restrained Seismic Open Spring Mounts), as manufactured by Mason UK Ltd.
Performance:
Mounting must have a minimum static deflection/compression of [VARIABLE DEFLECTION] under the operating load.
Geometry:
The ratio of the Spring diameter by the compressed spring height cannot be less than 0.8. Springs to have a minimum additional overload capacity of 50% of the rated deflection/compression before becoming solid.
Housing:
Spring coil to be restrained in housing and colour coded. Mount to include a 6 mm neoprene acoustical friction pad between the base plate and the support.
Installation:
All mountings need to have levelling bolts that must be rigidly bolted to the equipment or metal frame. When installed, all operating heights must be equal.
