Last month, Joseph Baggaley, Building Acoustics sector lead, Octavio Lora Aranda and Callum Brewer, Principal Consultants, presented a CPD on Acoustic Considerations for large mixed use developments to the team at Telford Homes.
The session covered:-
✅Regulations and Policy
🏠Overheating and Acoustic Solutions
🏢Sound Insulation
⚙️Mechanical Services Noise and Vibration Isolation
🛠️Bridging the Gap Between Design and Installation
Great to see the level of interest amongst the group which led to a good discussion. A common theme related to Overheating and AD-O and how the input between the thermal modelling and acoustic consultants can often conflict, leading to confusion from contractors perspective on how to move forward. Our solution to this is to get close to the thermal modellers and iron out the differences directly, so our input to the contractor is aligned, enabling them to make clear decisions on what the design options are to control overheating.
