Using advanced technologies and computer modelling techniques, we provide innovative solutions that minimise the effects of everyday external noise and control the impact of noise inside. We can even hear noise that hasn't been made yet, using our own special modelling software.
SDT's Acoustics team consists of experienced consultants offering expert advice in all areas of noise and vibration.
These include environmental, architectural and building services acoustics during the Schematic and Detailed Design stages, site inspections during construction, and acoustic commissioning surveys prior to hand-over.
During the schematic design stage of the development we undertook a baseline noise survey. This fed into the design of the façade system and provided both formal and ad-hoc advice on the design concept.
During the Detailed Design stage SDT provide advice on the proposed scheme, including the specification of sound insulation criteria, building services noise emission limits, and speech intelligibility and reverberation time criteria.
