We offer professional noise and vibration monitoring and consultation for the demolition and construction stage of any scheme, from housing to infrastructure:
- Impact modelling of site vehicle and machinery noise over the build period.
- Section 61 applications for local authority consent to carry out works. Assessment of the planned build programme, identify noise limit criteria and prepare a method statement detailing management and mitigation measures suitable for local authority submission.
- Specific planning conditions relating to the construction stage, including third party / infrastructure asset protection (e.g. piling in close proximity to underground rail tunnels).
- Troubleshooting site visits, available at short notice to assess and advise on specific build issues, deviations from plan etc.
- Early stage sample testing of plots to assess as-built sound insulation performance before installation throughout.
The service offers multiple location site noise and vibration monitoring covering demolition and construction phases. The equipment deployed provides real-time data and warnings based on pre-defined triggers; issues can be acted on at speed to reduce likelihood of complaint.
Monitoring and assessment is carried out following Parts 1 & 2 of British Standard 5228: 2009 and other relevant guidance.
