The environmental noise impact assessment / noise test / noise surveys undertaken by Impact Acoustics can differ from a proposed air conditioning plant or an existing industrial extractor fan impacting on small residential developments to larger scale developments. Sources of noise can include railway noise, road traffic noise, aircraft noise and more frequently wind turbine noise. Noise impact assessments/noise surveys are required within both the public and private sectors in a range of commercial and industrial projects.
The effects of noise from existing or proposed road or rail traffic
schemes impacting on residential developments can be assessed using
noise measurements, calculation and modelling techniques. Noise
surveys / noise impact assessments can be undertaken at both the
preliminary design stage and also at all other stages of the
proposed development in order to fully identify potential adverse
noise impacts and recommend mitigation options.
More people are affected by noise from transportation sources than
any other. For road, rail and air transport, there are established
and recommended methods for predicting the noise. Impact Acoustics
provides all necessary measurements, assessments and technical
capability to support the noise and vibration input into an
Environmental Statement.
Impact Acoustics have the knowledge and
skills for a full range of Environmental Noise Assessments and
written Noise Reports in accordance with the relevant British
Standards and confirm the requirements set out by the local
governing department, be it Environmental Health, Planning or
Building Control.
Impact Acoustics will work for you alongside the local authority to
ensure your noise issues are discharged accordingly and that a
suitable solution is achieved that satisfies all interested
parties. Impact Acoustics assist their client through the
application process; liaising with the local authority, conducting
the appropriate noise impact assessment / noise survey, compiling
the acoustic report, and providing a noise mitigation strategy, if
required.

noise and vibration sources during both construction and post
construction
Assessment in accordance
with CRTN and CRN for road and rail traffic noise levels
Assessment in accordance
with BS 6472 and BS 7385; for vibration impact
Recommendation of any
mitigation measures including noise barrier design and source
location
