Planning
When a development has the potential to introduce a new noise source into the environment, a noise assessment may be required during the planning process.
​
The noise assessment will determine the likelihood of any new noise sources having an adverse noise impact upon the surrounding community, and any mitigation needed to reduce noise.
Designing for Noise Control
We can help design sites so that noise is adequately controlled and noise complaints are avoided. ​
​
Noise control measures can range from specifying the right equipment to positioning of noise sources and use of enclosures or barriers.
Complaint Investigation
Industrial and commercial sites are a common cause of noise complaint, especially when positioned close to residential areas.
​
We can act as independent noise advisors when an investigation of a complaint relating to noise is required.
What's Involved?
Baseline Monitoring
During the planning and design stages of a development, a survey of the existing 'background' sound levels is usually required. If the sound source is operating,
​
Establishing Noise Levels
The noise level of the source is established using calculations, measurements of the source in operation, or a combination of both.
​
Assessing the Noise
​
Once sound levels have been established at the assessment location, these are evaluated using relevant standards and guidelines.
​
If necessary, the assessment will determine any required mitigation against noise.
​
Report
​
The results of the monitoring, conclusions of the assessment and any recommended mitigation measures will be detailed within an acoustic report.
