In the UK, construction and infrastructure projects are often located in or near densely populated urban areas, where their environmental impact can be significant. Making monitoring noise, vibration, and dust essential in UK construction and infrastructure

Effective sound management is crucial in diverse environments, from bustling offices to serene home theaters, impacting comfort, functionality, and health. Acoustic wall panels enhance these spaces by controlling noise and improving sound quality, providing both

We work with contractors to assess the suitability of any proposed on-site works and to provide guidance and support to reduce noise and vibration at the neighbouring receptors. Major construction projects and developments or any process or activity that

As urban areas continue to expand and human activities thrive, environmental noise pollution has become a significant concern. Among the many sources of noise pollution, construction activities have a notable impact on the surrounding environment and community well-being.

Resilient bars allow secure fixing of plasterboard or other boards to timber joints while improving the acoustic insulation of walls or ceilings. When properly installed, they allow the wall or ceiling to flex slightly, which absorbs sound.

Managing noise pollution has become an important consideration for businesses with industrial, commercial or construction sites. The escalating use of noise-emitting equipment in every-day settings – from cooling and heating systems to power generators and fork-lift trucks – means that sound levels can rapidly escalate. Which is why there’s a growing demand for reliable plant noise surveys.

With air conditioning units being used more widely than ever, especially in public, commercial and office spaces, it’s crucial to understand how they impact on environmental noise levels and affect noise sensitive receptors in their vicinity – hence the growing demand for reliable air conditioning noise surveys.

Extraction systems are among the most common noise nuisance complaints, especially in built-up areas where pubs and restaurants are located in close proximity to houses. The problems are exacerbated if commercial kitchen exhausts vent into small shared spaces or are located beneath residential units – flats and apartments situated above takeaways with late opening hours, for instance.

Ideally, you would start the health surveillance before people are exposed to noise (ie for new starters or those changing jobs), to give a baseline. It can, however, be introduced at any time for employees already exposed to noise.

Many factors contribute to the expansion of cities, including access to work as well as social and cultural amenities. The need for additional housing in city centres is under pressure and development of new residential dwellings aside commercial activities is becoming the norm.

When considering the installation of sound insulation in new buildings, one factor that must be taken into account is structure-borne sound. So, what is structure-borne sound and what steps can be taken to mitigate its effects?

If you are involved in the construction industry then you will know the importance of meeting all building regulations. This is especially true in terms of sound insulation in buildings such as joined houses, bungalows or flats. Meeting the minimum regulations in this area will not only keep you within the law but provide more effectively insulated properties for people to live in.

Sound travels through buildings in different ways, by both airborne sound and structure-borne sound. One form of structure-borne sound is known as impact sound.

As urban areas continue to expand and human activities thrive, environmental noise pollution has become a significant concern. Among the many sources of noise pollution, construction activities have a notable impact on the surrounding environment and community well-being.

When designing buildings, there are different types of sounds that should be considered when thinking about sound insulation. One of those types of sounds is airborne sound, which is sound that travels through the air.

Flanking and indirect sounds move from room to room and travel indirectly over or around a soundproof element.
