Noise, Vibration and Air Quality measurements

Monitoring noise, vibration and air quality to manage environmental nuisance and manage legislative compliance

Construction and development activities can disturb, and have a negative impact on, neighbouring communities. An efficient noise and vibration monitoring campaign can help contractors and developers avoid property damage, litigation, delays to the construction programme and the increased costs related to these isues.

Noise, vibration and air quality monitoring also contributes to preserving biodiversity

Noise and vibration

Monitoring noise levels helps to control the impact of construction sites and installations on ambient noise, as well as checking noise levels in places such as homes.
Installing noise sensors also enables the detection of land or aquatic animals. Thus, acoustic monitoring becomes a tool for preserving and protecting animal species during construction work.

Vibration control enables the level of vibration emitted by construction equipment or machinery to be checked, as well as how it propagates over a given distance.
This is an essential tool for protecting sensitive buildings, infrastructure and structures containing measuring instruments, such as hospitals, railway control centres and factories. These sensors are also used to monitor the vibration modes and amplitudes of structures over the long term.

The different types of measurement that we offer

Our high precision equipment allows for flexible configurations from mains power, solar and battery. Our sensors can undertake Class I or II measurements, dB(A), frequency analysis, time variations, audio recordings and noise source identification.

Vibration measurements can be taken in terms of peak-to-peak velocity (ppv), displacement or acceleration, and can be single-axis or tri-axis. Time variations, frequency analyses and modal analyses can also be performed.

The installation of environmental sensors enables:

  • Monitoring the pollution emitted by your construction site or facility
  • Checking your environment
  • Support in setting up biodiversity protection measures

Noise and vibration engineering and consulting

Our expert team scarry out measurements and technical analysis using noise modelling sofware such as CADNAA. These can help find effective solutions to minimise the impact on human health and the environment.

Our expert team have extensive experience in maintaining stakeholder confidence, fostering harmonious relations with the neighbourhood and protect the health of your teams. This can be achieved all while meeting regulatory requirements ensure the smooth running of your projects.
