The requirement for a comprehensive noise and vibration survey is particularly important for noise or vibration sensitive schemes such as residential developments but also for education, performance and leisure spaces. Surveys can be done to inform façade design or assist planning submissions. Sometimes acoustic related BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) credits require noise surveys done in accordance with ‘BS 7445-1:2003 Description and measurement of environmental noise: Guide to quantities and procedures’ so we can demonstrate a robust survey has been done. Similarly, the duration of the noise and vibration survey can be tailored to as long as practically required and noise meters can be set to record for subjective comment post monitoring or for shorter-term measurements they can be fully attended.You can be confident that our survey reports will comply with the relevant standards and guidance and our reports will withstand scrutiny.
