Sound Testing Categories in Buildings
Airborne sound insulation – Tests the insulation against airborne sounds, such as speech, etc.
Impact sound insulation – Assesses the effects of impacts on floor structures, e.g., footsteps.
These tests have established performance standards that your building should meet—and surpassing these standards is a substantial advantage.
Sound Insulation Testing Process in Lancashire
Before proceeding with sound testing, the Noise Control Solutions Lancashire team ensures proper room preparation, as the building’s condition can influence results.
In airborne tests, a loudspeaker in the source room generates a high noise level, and a level difference is noted in the receiving room, standardised to a reference value.
For impact tests, a standard tapping machine is positioned in the upper room’s floor, and sound pressure levels are recorded in the room below.
Sound Testing for Various Property Types
Our expert team performs sound tests in a variety of buildings, including educational and corporate structures, that fall outside the Building Regulations. We evaluate the quality of floor finishes through pre and post-work assessments. Note that floor finishes are excluded in Building Regulations sound tests.
In commercial units, you may need enhanced sound insulation standards. For instance, in a building where a flat sits above a shop, it’s crucial to consult our specialists about the required insulation level. Whether it’s a commercial or residential setup, we stand ready to assist Lancashire residents with any sound testing challenges.
