How we approach the work
A building’s acoustic performance results from construction solutions, junctions between elements, building services, room use and external noise. Work may begin at design stage, support construction or diagnose a completed building.
01
Areas of work
- Airborne sound insulation between rooms and dwellings.
- Impact sound insulation of floors.
- Façade sound insulation and exposure to external noise.
- Reverberation time and room acoustic suitability.
- Noise from building services and technical equipment indoors and outdoors.
02
Design and consultancy
- Definition of objectives and performance criteria.
- Review of construction solutions, details and critical junctions.
- Coordination with architecture and engineering disciplines.
- Support in material selection and noise-control solutions.
- Technical support and diagnosis of non-conformities.
03
Existing building assessment
- Selection of tests according to the observed problem.
- Identification of potential direct and flanking transmission paths.
- Comparison of expected and measured performance with use conditions.
- Recommendations for further investigation or intervention.
