Project Title: Acoustic Consultancy and Design for Antrim Area Hospital Extension

Project Value: £10m+

Project Brief: We supported the design team at Mcavoy Group for RIBA Design Stages 2 – 4 for the new build extension adding a new wing to Antrim Hospital. We conducted an environmental noise survey in accordance with BS 7445:2003 to establish the ambient and background sound levels at the site and surrounding areas.

We provided acoustic design in accordance HTM-08-01 – Health Technical Memorandum 08-01: Acoustics (2013) including assistance with sound insulation between spaces, reverberation control, internal ambient sound levels and noise emission from new plant equipment. We provided value engineered and considered solutions in collaboration with the design team to ensure the project achieved the required performance standards.
