The barrier is made of a double wall of trunks piled one on top of another (diameter 10 cm) and opportunely "tied-in" by an internal ¡ayer of earth 20 cm thick. The specific weight of the wood used ( pine) is approximately 800 kg/m3.

Externally lodges for plants to be inserted have been created by hollowing directly into the wood.
Such "windows" have been created in a chequer-board pattern, so as to characterise the barrier with a particular architectonic arrangement of the greenery.

The greenery is planted in leaf mould in correspondence with the openings, therefore allowing its normal growth and so favouring the subsequent "drooping" along the barrier itself.

The right amount of humidity is guaranteed by an apposite internal irrigation system by means of drip flaps situated at the top of the barrier.

The barrier is made of "modules" each being 1,50 m high, overlappable in order to reach the desired height.

The total thickness of the barrier is about 50 cm.

Due to the composition and the nature of the materials with which the product is created, the Unseasoned Wood barrier proves to be doted with characteristics which will be long-lasting also as regards acoustic, mechanical and statistical performance.

Thanks to the presence of the vegetation, this barrier is able to perfectly integrate with the environment and the countryside, and so carrying out, at the same time the function of improving the quality of the air by means of the chemical process of photosythesis.

The anti-noise barriers can be used so as to limit the sound propagation towards the residential estates in case of:

• Main and secondary road infrastructures;
• Railway infrastructures;
• Industrial areas;
• Noisy plants situated externally.

---

The use of one type of barrier does not exclude the use of another..

All products permit good levels of acoustic isolation/absorption, by means of a careful and punctual evaluation of the environmental conditions and a relative choice of the most suitable materials.

---

Great attention is paid to the respect for the environment. Creates elements with pre-treated materials in conformity with the European Regulations in force.

For the same as it has been created, the Unseasoned Wood barrier can be used with extreme ease and is quick to assemble, wich can be seen in the following phases:

• The positioning at a distance of 3000 mm of the double uprights wich are galvanised and painted and provided with steel plates for connection to the holding-down bolts of the foundation;
• The positioning of the wooden modular elements;
• The insertion of lead mould, prior to the arrangament of the non-woven fabric inside the cavities;
• The settling of the greenery;
• The installation of the irrigation system (the open system allows an easy irrigation from above).
