The control of noise is an important factor in reducing noise exposure and nuisance. It is also a factor in providing acceptable living and working conditions.
Ventilation and Mechanical Services Systems
One of the main noise sources is ventilation and air conditioning systems. In this regard it is possible to design or specify attenuators to reduce the noise output of air-measuring plant.
Sound Transmission
Sound transmission from room-to-room or from building-to-building may also be a problem. AMS Acoustics has the capability to predict and measure sound transmission.
In terms of measurement both airborne and impact routes can be determined. All work is carried out to the relevant British Standards.
Sound Absorption of Materials
The absorption coefficient of materials can be measured. AMS Acoustics is equipped with the measurement for carrying out these measurements.
The method used requires only a small sample of the material and various mounting methods may be investigated.
