Building Noise Investigation & Diagnosis
Investigating noise complaints — plant, party wall, environmental, impact and unknown sources — using acoustic camera diagnosis.
Diagnostic acoustique
Les plaintes pour nuisances sonores peuvent provenir de diverses sources et prendre différentes formes :
- bruit de l'usine
- noise through party walls
- external traffic and environmental noise
- noise through glazing and external facades
- impact noise via mechanical connections such as door slamming, movement and footsteps
- les problèmes de bruit à basse et à haute fréquence.
Trace peut enquêter sur ces types de plaintes ainsi que sur les situations où la source et le type de bruit sont inconnus.
How we diagnose noise
Diagnostic par caméra acoustique
Trace has the capability to investigate noise issues using an acoustic camera, which is a device made up of an array of microphones used to accurately locate noise in a given area and display it visually as colours and pictures. The process typically involves an acoustic survey to assess the dominant noise frequencies, followed by using the acoustic camera to filter that frequency range and locate the areas where the noise is emanating from.
Notre expertise
Trace has a team of experts with various disciplines who can diagnose the problem and provide an immediate solution using the acoustic camera as a useful tool to identify the origin of the problem noise. In addition to the acoustic camera, Trace has a range of methods and equipment to investigate noise issues.
