Here are some examples of how PDA’s comprehensive acoustic services can provide a one-stop shop for your needs:
- A new office development is being built in a noisy city centre location. PDA can provide acoustic consultancy services to the developers to ensure that the building is designed to meet all relevant acoustic regulations and to provide a comfortable and productive environment for the occupants. PDA can also undertake sound testing of the completed building to ensure it meets the design specifications. All services conform to British Standard 8223 – Guidance on Sound Insulation and Noise Reduction for Buildings.
- A factory is experiencing problems with noise pollution from its operations. PDA can undertake an environmental noise survey to measure the noise and vibration levels in the surrounding area. PDA can then assess the impact of this noise in line with BS4142 (Methods for rating and assessing industrial and commercial sound) regulations, as well as vibrations, on any local residents and businesses. PDA can then develop a noise management plan to reduce the impact of the noise and vibration.
- A school is experiencing problems with noise levels in its classrooms. PDA can undertake a sound test of the classrooms to identify areas of problem. PDA can then develop a noise control plan in line with BB93 (Acoustic Design of Schools) to provide advice and, if necessary, any acoustic treatment, to reduce noise levels.
