KOROK Noise Control Systems – Additional Acoustic Solutions

Advanced Noise Control Solutions for Targeted Acoustic Performance

KOROK Building Systems introduces additional Acoustic solutions designed to tackle specific sound challenges in modern construction. Originally driven by the unique requirements of cinemas and terraced housing, these solutions bring versatile applications to a wide range of environments, enhancing comfort, privacy, and overall sound quality.

Why Choose KOROK Noise Control Systems?

Our additional acoustic solutions were developed with a focus on solving specialized acoustic issues. By studying the effects of various wall densities and configurations, we’ve created adaptable systems that address distinct sound transmission concerns. From minimizing sound bleed in high-traffic areas to achieving optimal acoustic separation between units, KOROK Noise Control Systems meet the needs of complex acoustic demands.

How Noise Control Systems Work

Our systems use a blend of wall densities and build-ups that are tailored to meet the specific acoustic needs of each project. By combining technical insights with flexible design, we provide solutions that integrate seamlessly into diverse building types while maintaining industry-leading standards in acoustic performance.

Noise Control Systems

Key Applications of Noise Control Systems

  • Cinemas: Create immersive audio experiences without disruptive sound bleed between theaters, ensuring each audience enjoys undisturbed sound quality.
  • Terraced and Multi-Unit Housing: Reduce noise transfer between units to give residents a quieter, more comfortable living environment.
  • Other Specialized Spaces: Whether it’s office environments, hospitality spaces, or other commercial projects, our Noise Control Systems improve sound management, making shared and private spaces more acoustically efficient.

Deflection Head Details

Deflection Head Details

Deflection Head Details

What Are Deflection Head Details?

Deflection head details are specialized components used in wall and partition systems to accommodate vertical or horizontal movement in a building’s structure.

They are typically placed at the top of walls, allowing the structure to expand, contract, or shift without compromising the wall’s integrity or performance.\

This movement can be caused by various factors, such as dead loads, live loads, thermal expansion, or seismic activity. At KOROK Building Systems, our deflection head solutions are designed to provide the flexibility and stability needed in high-performance wall systems.

Dead and live loads can cause significant deflection in some structures. KOROK® can provide deflection C-track details where deflection loadings are considered.

 

KOROK deflection head details:

  • Maintain Structural Integrity: Designed to allow movement in walls without damaging the structure, these details help prevent cracking or separation in response to building movement.
  • Ensure Fire and Acoustic Performance: KOROK deflection heads are rigorously tested to retain fire resistance and acoustic ratings, even with movement, maintaining protection in all conditions.
  • Seismic Readiness: In New Zealand, where seismic activity can impact building structures, our deflection head designs are engineered to absorb and adjust to seismic forces, supporting safe and resilient structures.
Deflection Head Details

Whether used in commercial or residential projects, KOROK’s deflection head details meet the highest industry standards, offering a reliable solution for builders, architects, and contractors who prioritize safety, performance, and durability.

Introducing COLORSTEEL® MAXAM™: The Next Generation of Steel Solutions

Introducing COLORSTEEL® MAXAM™: The Next Generation of Steel Solutions

Introducing COLORSTEEL® MAXAM™: The Next Generation of Steel Solutions

At KOROK, we are committed to delivering the highest quality fire and acoustic rated wall systems, and today we are excited to introduce a major upgrade in our materials. We are transitioning to the new COLORSTEEL® MAXAM™, which will replace our previously used COLORSTEEL® ENDURA® and COLORSTEEL® MAXX® ranges. This change marks a significant advancement in the technology and performance of our wall systems.

What is COLORSTEEL® MAXAM™?

COLORSTEEL® MAXAM™ combines the renowned quality and consistency of COLORSTEEL® with innovative ACTIVATE™ technology. This new single substrate product solution is designed with corrosion resistance and longevity in mind, making it suitable for most of New Zealand’s environmental conditions.

The Benefits of ACTIVATE™ Technology

  • Strategic Positioning: The aluminium/zinc/magnesium compounds in the coating are strategically positioned to activate at the start of weathering, providing sacrificial protection when it is most needed.
  • Robust Barrier Formation: Magnesium compounds encourage the formation of a robust barrier at cuts and scratches, slowing the rate of subsequent corrosion.
  • Long-Lasting Protection: The magnesium compounds ‘activate’ the metal coating, resulting in more effective, longer-lasting sacrificial protection.

Transitioning to the Future

The introduction of COLORSTEEL® MAXAM™ reflects our commitment to innovation and excellence. By integrating this advanced material into our KOROK wall systems, we are ensuring that our products not only meet but exceed the highest standards of performance and durability. For more information on COLORSTEEL® MAXAM™ and its benefits, please contact our customer service team.

BNZ Place: A Testament to Innovation and Sustainability

BNZ Place: A Testament to Innovation and Sustainability

CASE STUDY

BNZ Place: A Testament to Innovation and Sustainability

After nearly four years of design and construction, BNZ Place at 1 Whitmore Street in Wellington is officially open. This 12-storey, 17,000m² building, a collaborative effort between Studio Pacific Architecture and Jasmax, epitomizes practical and purposeful workplace design, combining sustainability, wellbeing, and functionality.

BNZ Place: A Testament to Innovation and Sustainability

Seismic Resilience and Safety

BNZ Place is one of the most seismically resilient buildings in New Zealand, featuring base isolation to protect against significant structural damage during earthquakes. Raised on a plinth to minimize flood risks and supported by piles extending 60 meters below ground, the building exceeds seismic strength requirements with an NBS rating above 180%.

Innovative Features and Sustainability

Targeting a 5 Green Star As-Built rating, BNZ Place incorporates high-performance solar control glass, energy-efficient systems, and a structural steel diagrid. Efficient floorplates, a double-height entry lobby, inter-floor stairs, and a rooftop courtyard contribute to its state-of-the-art design.

KOROK’s Contribution

KOROK played a crucial role in the construction of BNZ Place by supplying fire and acoustic walls for lift shafts, risers, and ducts. KOROK panels offer significant advantages over traditional construction, as they can be installed from one side only, eliminating the need for scaffolding inside shafts and reducing construction time and costs. Additionally, KOROK panels can be installed before the structure is watertight, preventing water ingress through open shafts.

A Collaborative Effort

The project involved collaboration with various stakeholders, including Newcrest LP, the developer behind the building. CEO Dan Huggins emphasized BNZ’s commitment to Wellington and its future. “BNZ Place reflects our commitment to the city and our vision for the future. We are thrilled to share this vibrant and innovative space with our customers, colleagues, and the people of Wellington,” he said.

BNZ Place at 1 Whitmore Street symbolizes resilience, innovation, and sustainability. With its doors now open, it stands as a testament to collaboration, forward-thinking design, and a commitment to a better future for Wellington.
