Raised Access Flooring creates an elevated structural floor with removable panels. This system allows full access to cabling and services beneath the floor covering. Today’s office environment consists of a complex weave of technology in order to facilitate and accomplish every requirement; from security cameras and worldwide video-conferencing to sophisticated computer networks that link multiple facilities and sensory HVAC systems. This all requires an extensive network of cabling systems that must reside within the building’s infrastructure and be easily accessible for service and updating to accommodate the rapid advances in technology. They also need to be cost-effective when the time comes to reconfigure the offices to meet the needs of tenants as they come and go. Sound treatment is a design consideration for many buildings in order to reduce noise disturbance and enhance the quality of sound. Selecting acoustic flooring materials is crucial to effective sound treatment. View our Acoustic Flooring solutions below or give us a ring on 0333 055 7569 and talk to our experts today!

Using high density XPS insulation our floating floor systems are able to withstand both occasional and long term static loads. This type of floor construction can be laid onto any existing concrete floor and is an alternative to a screed between battens or a aluminium plate method. Floating floors provide a level of thermal insulation even when floor build up needs to be kept to a minimum. This type of installation is used when the existing floor cannot be altered. The panels are designed to be laid over the existing timber or concrete floor and are grooved to allow the pipework to be installed within the panels. The floating floor method is ideal for existing properties where the biggest challenge for adding to an existing floor (retrofit) is the floor height that’s why our panels are kept to a minimum of 25mm thick plus the structural flooring.

In addition, the transmission of airborne sound from TVs and voices can also be reduced. You may have come across the term “acoustic flooring solutions” when looking at flooring options for your next construction project. But what acoustic flooring solutions are available and what are they used for? In our latest blog post, we take a closer look at acoustic flooring solutions to help you understand what acoustic flooring is used for. Acoustic flooring is a type of flooring system that provides sound insulation between floors in buildings. Read more about acoustic flooring here: https://ukasystems. co. uk/acoustic-flooring/There are two types of floating floors, made of either concrete or timber. A floating floor is not glued or nailed to the subfloor (the building’s foundation or structure flooring), and the surface finish panels are attached together instead to keep them in place. Both materials create airspace which is then filled with materials such as coiled springs, neoprene or fiberglass pads to boost noise reduction. Some structures will not be able to support the weight of concrete floating floors and in these instances, timber floating flooring is used. https://ukasystems. co. uk/acoustic-flooring/floating-floors/Acoustic flooring solutions are used in a range of buildings and construction projects.

This system isolates sound and vibration from the floor or room below, however, it doesn’t provide soundproofing as standard. To soundproof floating floors, a soundproof layer is bonded to the underside of the floor, creating an impenetrable sound barrier. When discussing soundproofed floating floors, we mostly refer to timber floating floors because concrete floating floors are naturally soundproofed and installed at ground level. Floating floors are modular and highly configurable, built on top of sound subfloors with no requirement for structural building work. Installation is quick, and floating floors cost far less than dedicated acoustic flooring in most cases. Floating floors replace an existing floor with installation over the existing system, saving you the time and effort of making a new subfloor. Because the new floor is floating, it is isolated from the old subfloor, so vibration and noise cannot transmit to the building structure. This will significantly improve the room’s acoustics and reduce the impact of footfall on others. If you want to isolate acoustics to one room, a floating floor is ideal for dealing with foot traffic, moving furniture, trolleys and other floor contacts. Most floating floors in hotels, apartment blocks and studios have acoustic insulation to improve user experience. A secondary benefit to acoustic insulation is it improves thermal efficiency, reducing heat loss between the floor and subfloor. We can install a timber or concrete floating floor with... > Soundproofing should be a forefront consideration of any architect or building contractor. Noise pollution and its effects are a huge problem for millions of people and buildings. - Published: 2020-08-17 - Modified: 2024-01-08 - URL: https://ukasystems.co.uk/blog/commercial-sector/2020/08/ - Categories: Help & Advice, Soundproofing Soundproofing should be a forefront consideration of any architect or building contractor. Noise pollution and its effects are a huge problem for millions of people and buildings, whether it is a distraction to students in education, or an accounts manager in their office environment. All working environments will face a soundproofing or sound absorption issue at some point throughout its lifetime, whether that may be an office above you being too loud, thus making the noise bypass your ceiling to your space or may that be your office becoming more crowded causing echoes. All of these issues have a surprisingly negative effect on productivity, a recent survey seen that office workers are 66 percent less productive in an open-plan office than when working on their own, indicating that differentiation’s in noise levels have an effect on productivity. However, this may all seem inevitable, how one can prevent such from happening seems pot luck, dependent on who you get as tenant around your office. If you were to think this, you would be wrong. In actual fact, there are many solutions available with today’s knowledge, and understanding of how sound waves travels. A space can be soundproofed to prevent noise leakage from the surrounding spaces or even absorption panels being applied to “soak” up the echoes. Offering a range of services to the commercial sector, we pride ourselves in providing high standards and reasonable costs at all times.

Learning can be broken up into four main categories, visual, auditory, read & write and kinaesthetic. However, all learning styles require a free flowing conversation between the students and lecturer. Recently recognised that the design of the facility and its acoustics can have a dramatic impact towards learning. Nurseries, schools, colleges and universities all suffer from noise issues, whether that may be a; soundproofing problems arise due to noise travelling between rooms. Whereas sound absorption problems arise due to long reverberation times within rooms. Which impacts on audibility by distorting the teacher’s voice and amplify student noise levels, affecting concentration and productivity. The Department for Education revised the Building Bulletin 93 which provides guidance to architects and acousticians through the process of the acoustic design of schools in the context of the various types of spaces and activities. BB93 contains performance standards, acoustic principles, good design practice, calculation procedures and case studies on existing schools. Interior acoustics play a crucial role in class rooms and educational facilities as the transmission of the speech is required to occur with minimal distortion and loss. With our extensive experience in soundproofing and sound absorption we can advise on and install absorption solutions in addition to soundproofing solutions that will efficiently resolve these problems, enhancing the performance of staff and the ability of children and students to gain the most from their education in their most crucial stages.

Residential buildings can include; apartment blocks, care homes, student accommodation and houses of single or multi story occupancy. The problem that residential buildings face is from unwanted impact and/or airborne sounds travelling throughout the structure. Airborne and impact are two ways in which sound can travel. Airborne refers to sounds that can travel through the air and into adjoining rooms, examples include; voices, snoring, music systems or television. Impact noise refers to sounds caused by impact such as light or heavy footsteps, moving furniture and even objects that have been dropped onto the floor. Impact noises send vibrations through the structure of a dwelling. With all residential environments, noise levels can negativity affect a person’s mental health, including; sleep deprivation, lack of concentration, bad tempered and suffering from feelings of general irritability.

We’ve created a list of 5 things that we believe are essential to every Estimators job. So what should every Estimator know about quantity surveying? Systems to speed up tasks In order to be an efficient Estimator, you need the ability to gather specific information relevant to the project and store it in a manner that allows you to refer back to it quickly. The organisation is, therefore, key to this role! To make things easier for yourself you should set up checklists, have ample templates and have some good estimating and project management software. Planning with your client A common construction pitfall is when a customer’s idea of the final product turns out to be vastly different from the one you had in mind. You must nail down every project detail with a good set of plans. Actual plans, not drawings. It’s not enough to have drawn up basic concepts that you and your customer agreed on. You need plans that outline every facet of the project, and your customer needs to sign off on it. Understanding regulations An efficient estimator will know the applicable building codes, laws and regulations to help generate values. As an Estimator, you must be familiar with the Construction Lien Act, OSHA Standards and Labour Codes. You can save yourself a lot of headaches by staying familiar with relevant laws and regulations... > Robust details present an alternative to pre-completion testing for illustrating compliance with the performance standards of Part E for new build dwellings. - Published: 2020-04-07 - Modified: 2024-01-08 - URL: https://ukasystems.co.uk/blog/robust-detail-part-e-acoustic-requirements/2020/04/ - Categories: Help & Advice Here are 5 ways to increase profit margins in construction as you will see, the goal is not to work more, but to work more effectively— and improve your company’s bottom line as you go; consequently, increasing your revenue. Robust details present an alternative to pre-completion testing for illustrating compliance with the performance standards of Part E for new build dwellings. In order to use Robust Details for this motive, you must first register your use for each area with them. Robust Details Once your plots are registered, they’ll present you with enrolment documentation. This will be accepted by all building control bodies as confirmation that you’re entitled to use Robust Details alternatively to pre-completion sound testing. The benefits of Robust Details are distinct – using them circumvents the need to carry out pre-completion acoustic testing. This further eliminates the risk and ambiguity of remedial action being required on the completed floor or wall constructions, with the inherent delays in completing the property. You will be investing in constructions that add real value to the building, instead of paying test fees. You will additionally avoid the delays and contingencies of pre-completion sound testing. It is essential that Robust Detail constructions are correctly devised because occasionally when they have been spot-checked, they have not met the current Part E requirements for sound control. When this occurs it’s usually due to one or both of the following reasons. Incorrect materials have been used. The construction has been incorrectly installed.

Learning can be broken up into four main categories, visual, auditory, read & write and kinaesthetic. However, all learning styles require a free flowing conversation between the students and lecturer. Recently recognised that the design of the facility and its acoustics can have a dramatic impact towards learning. 7. Acoustic Panels Are Ugly At times, people try and avoid the use of acoustic panels, as they fear they’re ugly. However, Acoustic panelling is anything but. Panels can be fully customised and unique to the customer. They can be printed on a variety of fabrics, colours and shapes. Here at UK Acoustic Systems, we believe that the use of Acoustic Panels can in fact make a room look more decorative and appealing whilst absorbing airborne noise. 6. Installing The Product Will Be Easy At times, a ‘do it yourself job’ can be enough. However, with more complex products, doing it yourself can be risky. On a few occasions, especially within the commercial sector, our expertise has been called upon to repair, or in some cases completely restart the project which has unfortunately gone wrong for the contractor. Our advice is to always use a professional installer. We offer an install only service as well a supply and install. 5.

Whether you are the main contractor, subcontractor or self-builder working within residential, commercial, home building or any other construction trade, a systematic approach to developing business practices will ultimately result in an increase in profit margins. 1. Estimating The first of the 5 ways to increase profit margins in construction is estimating. It is important to remember that the mathematical difference between the budget and the bid is both overhead and profit. The goal of an accurate estimate is to determine your true costs–and offer you the ability to accurately assess the progress and profitability of each job against a predetermined benchmark. Creating a detailed, accurate estimate for the work you propose to do is the first step toward achieving real profitability—yet too many contractors fail to calculate the true cost of a proposed project based upon three essential elements: overhead, risk and job costs. Each of these elements must be reflected in the estimate ahead of time if you expect an increase in profit margins once the job is completed: Overhead Risk Job Costs 2.

Organisations such as the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) have been working hard to close this gender gap. I believe that Individual businesses must take steps to promote greater participation by women. The visibility of women in leadership roles has long been a challenge for the construction industry; although there are more women in senior roles than ever before, only 16% of these roles are actually held by women, and for every 1 female apprentice coming into construction, there are 56 male apprentices. A huge amount is still to be done to ensure we attract, recruit and retain talented women into a full range of roles across all areas of construction at all levels. Not having a diverse workforce means that the construction industry as a whole is cut off from the recruitment of nearly 50% of the potential workforce. This means two things: 1.

Most buildings must have a basic function to block out environmental noise, this is important for anything from commercial buildings and residential buildings to the educational sector. A buildings acoustics can influence the effects of noise disturbance which can have negative effects on your health, wellbeing and general quality of life. Research was undertaken by London University, Institute of Education shows classrooms with poor acoustics can negatively affect academic performance. We’ve all experienced it, high noise levels in any environment are more distracting and have been proven to have negative effects on health. Julie Dockrel’s study states “those that have high cognitive processing demands involving attention, problem-solving and memory appear to be those most affected by exposure to noise”. We recognised the pitfalls in the educational sector with acoustics. Our acoustic supplier, Wilkins, have a specific education range. Said range incorporates sound absorption baffles, panels as well as soundproof flooring, making education a better acoustic environment for everyone. Check out Wilkins’ range for more information. Noise within residential buildings is considered to be a health and safety issue. External noise such as noisy neighbours, nearby traffic and other outside influences are becoming progressively more problematic. Resulting in negative effects on occupant’s health.

Whether it is a nightclub, theatre, gym or a sports hall, there is a need to ensure that noise produced stays within its boundaries, reducing crossover to neighbouring rooms and properties especially as many leisure facilities are located in the centre of highly populated areas. It is good business practice to ensure that noise produced from a facility is kept within its boundaries. This is in fact a legal requirement that must be adhered to. The Noise Abatement Act (1960), outlined this initially and subsequently there have been many more up to date acts passed to support and regulate noise management within the leisure industry. Examples include: – Section 5 of the Noise Act (1996) The Noise Policy Statement, England (2010) Permitted Level of Noise Directions, England (2008) Outlined this initially and since then there have been various other acts passed to support and regulate noise management in the leisure industry (Section 5 of the Noise Act 1996, The Noise Policy Statement for England of March 2010, Permitted Level of Noise (England) Directions of 2008).

In these upcoming articles we will be explaining why acoustics are important in the specific sectors and explaining possible risks/ benefits of not having/ having high specification acoustic products. Our risks and benefits have not been magically created out of the air, but instead have been included from past experience and previous projects. The sectors we will be covering will include: Leisure, Offices, Restaurants & Bars, Showrooms, Educational and Retail, these projects have been included due to them typically being the most affected by poor acoustics and which have dramatic effect on buying/ learning and comfort. With all of our articles our aim is: Help you determine whether you have a problem Help point out where that problems lays What is required in solving that problem. As with a majority of our projects, the actual problem isn’t highlighted until someone externally complains/ notices, as the person who needs to cope with it daily is typically unaware of the situation. Usually because they’ve gotten used to it, or they’ve classed it as “normal”. Now especially when managing or owning one of the buildings from the sectors list above, noise disruption can have a massive effect on someone. For example a study by the University of Salford found that acoustics can affect academic progress over a year even as much as 25%.

Odds are, you can hear something now. Whether that would be cars passing by, a merge of conversations or people clicking a mouse (yes, that is what I’m hearing right this second). So what would it be like without any sound? With acoustic technology and knowledge we can find that out, by using anechoic chambers. Anechoic chambers being “an-echoic” meaning non-echoing. Some of the chambers can reach levels of 99. 9% sound absorbent. One of the chambers in the Microsoft campus broke the World Record at achieving -20. 6 dBA. But at these levels, it can have a negative impact on you, after some time you will begin hallucinating. Just to give you an indication of how quiet these rooms can get. Once entering an anechoic chamber, you will be able to hear your lungs and your heart beating. Potential problems with noise Most of us know that loud blasts or rock concerts can damage our hearing, due to the pain threshold of our ears. But it’s not only the sounds which surpass our thresholds but it’s also prolonged noise, which causes the majority of issues.

These are two distinct types of noise and both have to be dealt with in different ways when solving noise problems. As such, it is vital to know the difference, as using the wrong solution could mean that time, money and resources can be unnecessarily spent. Differences So what are the differences? Well first we are going to look at impact noise. Impact noise is noise caused by physical impacts or pressure on that part of the building. Examples of events that create impact noise could be objects being dropped on the surface, objects moving across it, or even footsteps in the case of flooring. Impact While impact noise can be a problem for all parts of a building, it is most common in flooring, due to footsteps and movement. This can be a real issue in buildings with a high amount of foot traffic inside, resulting in high levels of noise. This can also be a big issue in multi-level buildings such as apartments and hospitals, due to the transmission of the noise of footsteps between floors. Impact noise can be dealt with in a number of ways. With flooring the best solution is the installation of a specialist acoustic flooring system, while with walls and ceilings, it is typically airborne noise rather than impact.

We live in the first-floor flat and we can hear our upstairs neighbours all time. Is there any soundproofing that can be applied to make the noise more bearable? A. Is this airborne? (People talking/ TV) or impact (footsteps/ moving furniture) If both, you would be best with our Soundproof Lay Plus (12mm thick)/ or our SoundDeck 37 (37mm thick). As both of these add mass (to combat the Airborne noise) but also provide an acoustical layer to soak up any impact. As when dealing with impact noise, the product needs to be at the source, similar to dropping a brick on a solid floor, then dropping it on a sponge. Whereas airborne noise, needs to be isolated. This is achieved through mass and solid barriers, preventing the noise from passing. The majority of our range can be laid as a floating floor or direct to joist, making it easier and more conviant without disrupting the acoustical properties. Q. We have cinema (and or Studio) room, however, we can hear people talking from the room next door. How can we resolve this matter? A. With this situation, we’d ideally create a box within a box. Now just doing the walls, will reduce a majority of the noise from passing, so that’s the best place to start. Firstly, with such airborne noise, we need mass. Lots of mass.

Many of us suppose that any reasonably material can do for each style of noise, however this is merely not the case. Before buying any material, make sure you check the acoustical performance and the size of the product, alternatively ask one of our technical specialists for advice. As one company may have a lower cost, however the over product might be larger and heavier (better), but also, you need to ensure you’re buying the correct product for your solution. Paying attention to urban myths concerning soundproofing Many people pay too much attention into urban myths, such as, nailing the carpet to the walls and adding an extra layer of paint to the wall / ceiling. These might sound like the perfect solution, as its cheaper and you can do it yourself. However, these are all myths and won’t work no matter how many layers of paint you use. Each soundproofing product is made differently for different areas of the room, so next time, it’s worth buying the correct products.

The easiest way to understand sound diffusion is to visualise scattered sound waves coming from the product, system. Whereas an environment which hasn’t invested into sound diffusion, you with have sound waves reflected perfectly perpendicular to your floors. As diffusion is the result of being able to spread the noise energy evenly in an environment, order to effectively reduce distinct echoes and reflections. As compared to a reflective surfaces (such as marble/glass), which will cause most of the energy to be reflected off at an angle equal to the angle of initial noise. Secondly, sound absorption (if you haven’t already read our previous sound absorption article, I would recommend reading it here. As it covers sound absorption in greater detail). In a brief overview, sound absorption is a process of removing sound energy from a room, While Diffusers reflect sound waves to different directions, sound absorption solutions absorb the sound waves. Depending on the degree of the absorption, a highly absorbent material will only reflect a very little, but will absorb a lot (turning the sound energy into heat energy when the waves hit the absorbent material) Overall, diffusers will cause the sound energy to be radiated in many directions, hence leading to a more diffusive acoustic space.

However, studies indicate these noises can have more of an impact to you and others than meets the ear. Such noises, can not only reduce productivity but are capable or effecting our health and happiness. Julian Treasure, CEO of The Sound Agency recently said “Sound affects us psychologically, cognitively and behaviourally, even though we’re not aware of it“The reason behind the ever increasing noise levels in our workplace is simple, a growing population and new trends. For the past few years, interior designer have been promoting glass/marble/concrete, one as it’s easier to clean but they are seen as sleek finishes. However, although they have the “sleek style”, all of these finishes reflect sound, creating echoes. Furthermore, open plan offices have been on the increase. Now accounting for over 70% of modern offices, these trends have all had a negative impact on everyone working within them. With some types of noises, the human ear can tune out over time. However intermittent speech is much harder / near impossible to tune out. Intermittent speech is when you hear only a few words or sentences here and there, with pauses in between.

However, studies indicate these noises can have more of an impact to you and others than meets the ear. When attempting to soundproof your room, the first thing you need to do, is find out where the sound is coming from, and what type of noise is it. Once this has been complete, you’re already 50% there, as if you buy some wall boards, because you can hear noise from above... well, that isn’t going to work. Once that stage has been complete, and you know its noise from your next door neighbour. We can tell it’s a wall solution required. With a wall solution it’s all down to airborne noise, so tackling airborne noise requires mass, a lot of it too. With our UKAS SoundBoard, not only does it comply with Approved Part E of the Building Regulations, it’s a 28mm slim line soundproofing solution, offering 43dB Rw + Ctr. Getting back to the point, why should you soundproof your wall? These wall solutions, can dramatically improve room comfort, as the sounds will isolate your room from the external airborne noises. Wall soundproofing is ignored at the most part of the time, as people attempt to ignore that external noise. However, if you’re trying to watch a film, try to have a confidential conversation or even try get some peace and rest. Ignoring... > Soundproof ceiling solutions will isolate your room from any airborne noise from above, or your noise from travelling above.

The main purpose of soundproofing products is to prevent noise transmission from one side of an object to another, by adding mass and using absorbing materials to prevent the soundwaves from passing through. Soundproof ceiling products such as our UKAS SoundBoard is to isolate the sound. To isolate the sound, you are effectively blocking the sound from passing through. Whereas sound absorption on the other hand, while also lowering the sound level, it does this by reducing the persistence of sound within a room, such as echos. This is done by using soft absorbent material to soak up any excess sound waves, preventing them from reverberating (bouncing) around the room. Products such as our Absorba range will achieve this. So if you have problem with the people shouting in the room above, you would be looking at our soundproof ceiling product, the UKAS SoundBoard, as you wanting to isolate that room. Sound absorption is mainly used in large open spaces, where there are lots of solid surfaces, such as restaurants, hotel lounges and sports halls as the noise will bounce around. Another thing to note is, if you are trying to tackle impact noise, and seek out a ceiling solution for this fix. This wouldn’t be the best option, as for impact you ideally need to be at the source of the impact to make any dramatic improvements. So why soundproof your ceiling?... > More often than not, people install soundproof flooring systems to comply with New Approved Document E of the Building Regulations.

As these Regulations define the level of noise quality required for buildings in the UK. Not only does it cover areas such as structural integrity and safety, but there is a section covering acoustics to ensure that new structures and conversions meet the expected level of soundproofing and sound absorption. But soundproof flooring systems are ideal in providing room comfort, as they assist in tackling both impact and airborne, as it’s direct to the source (the footsteps), in addition they can offer high levels of mass to contribute in decreasing airborne noise. Our UKAS flooring product range, can provide you with comfort, knowing you’re not making too much noise for your neighbours, but also, help you deal with any airborne noise coming from below. A mistake most make is getting the floating floor system as close as possible to the wall, however is shouldn’t be an option, as the noise can travel through the system then up the wall. This is why we supply our every own UKAS Perimeter Edging strip also known as ‘Flanking Strip’ which isolates the perimeter wall and edging detail from the floating floor, maintaining the acoustic integrity. With Overlays, Cradle & Battens and Direct to joist these systems can be used in a variety of spaces, to assist in decreasing the acoustics in the room. Overlays are most popular for any conversions, as they are... > Doors can often be the main source of noise leakage between areas. Read why you should soundproof your doors at UK Acoustic Systems. - Published: 2016-06-07 - Modified: 2024-01-08 - URL: https://ukasystems.co.uk/blog/soundproofing-doors/2016/06/ - Categories: Help & Advice, Soundproofing Doors can often be the main source of noise leakage between areas. This is often due to the gaps between the door and the frame, and due to doors often being thinner and having less mass than walls, ceilings and floors. As such, when designing the acoustics of a room, to say that doors are an incredibly important factor to take into account is an understatement. Unfortunately, doors are often thought of as being less important than other parts of the room, such as walls, or are forgotten about, leading to designers spending a large amount of money on kitting out parts of the room with acoustic solutions, then still suffering with noise issues due to a lack of adequate door soundproofing. So what can be done to soundproof doors? One of the cost common and effective solutions is to get a specialist soundproof door. This is because these are more effective than other types of solution as they are designed to fit as closely to the frame as possible, leaving minimal gaps and also using mass to absorb and disperse sound. While many of these doors are thick in order to maximise mass, some also have a hollow space inside, where sound insulating material is placed. Gap sealers can also be placed at the bottom of existing doors. Using a specialist door offers a much better solution than strapping panels to the door, as they would not be as effective. This is because panels often have less mass and... > Soundproofing and Sound Absorption are two of the most important factors to take into account when designing or managing structures.

Having an adequate amount of both can have a massive, positive effect on the acoustics of structures, ensuring they provide a great atmosphere for all of those within. Soundproofing and Sound Absorption are distinct from each other and solve different acoustical problems, yet are also similar in many aspects. This unfortunately means that they are often mistaken for each other, and at times the solution that people may be thinking of may not be the right one to fully fix their acoustical problem. While we have explained about both types in the past (which you can find here and here), in this article we are going to describe what the differences are in each and how to quickly determine which of these solution types can be used to fix specific acoustical problems. The main purpose of soundproofing products is to prevent noise transmission from one side of an object to another, by adding mass and using absorbing materials to prevent the soundwaves from passing through. Many different types of objects and structural pieces can be soundproofed, including walls, windows, ceilings, doors and floors. This can offer a number of benefits, such as protecting privacy between rooms, dealing with nuisance external noise such as outside streets and neighbors, and lowering the overall noise level of the building as a whole and improving acoustics, by reducing sound between rooms and floors, which... > Soundproofing is the prevention of noise leakage from one part of a structure, though to the other side.

However soundproofing is used in many structures worldwide and can provide benefits to any kind of environment, being used widely in residences, commercial businesses, public service providers and schools and even in the leisure and entertainment industry. I am going to talk about Soundproofing, and why it is so important for maintaining a good acoustical environment, as well as the different ways structures can be soundproofed. Soundproofing is the prevention of noise leakage from one part of a structure, though to the other side. Soundproofing can offer a number of benefits, such as; protect confidentiality, prevent nuisance external noise and make buildings with large amounts of people within quieter, improving comfort and productivity. While a common association of soundproofing is with walls, other parts of structures can be soundproofed as well, such as ceilings, doors and floors. Walls are often soundproofed by placing material in the cavity in the centre of the wall (such as our Sound Quilt), preventing noise from leaking through either side. Soundproofing material can also be placed on ether side of the wall. Soundproof walls have a wide variety of usages, whether its preventing noise from neighbours in connected houses, maintaining productive environments by minimising noise in schools, preventing noise leakage from nightclubs and much more. Specialist soundproof doors can be used to prevent the leakage of noise. Unlike many doors, which are hollow on the inside, these doors are designed... > When thinking of the acoustical design of structures, sound absorption is often thought about less and less understood than soundproofing.

However sound absorption is incredibly important, just as much as soundproofing. Without the use of sound absorption methods, structures and buildings can become much more uncomfortable places. To first understand how sound absorption products work, we must first look at the problem they prevent, reverberation. Reverberation is when sound persists within a room, due to soundwaves bouncing off objects and not being absorbed, essentially an echo. Reverberation times are used to measure the level of reverberation by measuring how long it takes the sound to die away; it is specifically defined as the time it takes for the sound to go under 60db of its original level. Reverberation has a number of negative effects, it can decrease the audibility in a room, making conversations and other noises hard to hear, it decreases comfort and it is also picked up by recording equipment, lessening quality. The layout and surfaces in a room determine how quickly the waves can be absorbed. For instance, sport halls are usually large rectangular rooms, featuring plenty of space for activities and hard walls. This means that reverberation can be an extremely common occurrence within these types of rooms, as they give the waves lots of room to bounce around and the hard surfaces do not absorb well. The opposite of this would be a living room with carpets, curtains and upholstery. Sound absorption products, such as... > Decibels - When talking about sound and the effects of sound, it is incredibly important and useful to take into account the Decibel scale. Read more online. - Published: 2016-04-26 - Modified: 2024-01-08 - URL: https://ukasystems.co.uk/blog/decibels/2016/04/ - Categories: Help & Advice When talking about sound and the effects of sound, it is incredibly important and useful to take into account the decibel scale. However the decibel scale can often be misunderstood and can be one of the more confusing aspects when talking about sound and its effects on humans. Decibels are units that are the primary method used for expressing the power of a sound and the ratio between its power and intensity. For example, the average sound level of a whisper is at 40 decibels, while the sound of a gunshot is around 130. As such, decibel levels are incredibly important when measuring noise safety. This is because humans can only be exposed to differing levels of sound for specific periods of time, without risking temporary or permanent ear damage. For example, the safe limit for being directly exposed without protection to 90db (the sound of a lawnmower or motorcycle) is around 2 hours, while the safe limit for being exposed to 140db (aircraft engines) is less than 1 minute. In addition, sounds over 120db surpasses the human pain threshold. As such, this is why environments with high levels of noise, such as aircraft hangars, nightclubs and shooting ranges should make use of soundproofing in order to protect neighbouring rooms/buildings. Decibel levels are also useful for measuring how much sound comfort a room provides. In order to maintain a comfortable atmosphere, the sound levels within rooms, particularly those for residential purposes, should not go over a certain level.

The design had to be as discreet as possible, retaining the original character of the building, and allowing for future amendments to the building. Finally, all of this work had to be completed to the unyielding deadlines of term times. Working closely with Main Contractor, Bowmer & Kirkland, UK Acoustic Systems recommended the Soundis ChipPanel 28 system as the ideal solution for the 1,575m2 area. Contracted by our client, we supplied and installed this ChipPanel 28 system due to its high impact and airborne noise reduction, conforming to Robust Detail standards FFT5. Furthermore, at only 28mm thick, this shallow floating floor also minimises construction height allowing that extra space for any additional features the college may wish to add in the near future.

Designed by leading architect Sir Nicholas Grimshaw, the challenge for the design of PortalMill was to combine activities from previous facilities. The L-shaped factory floor allows for the flow of materials through the building. To support people from numerous teams, the building’s office spaces were designed to provide open and flexible spaces allowing for greater collaboration. The 170,000 sq metre warehouse project required a sound absorption solution. Timber Sound Absorption panels were selected and were fitted to the walls of the office area, meeting rooms, restaurant and general circulation space. The acoustic wall panels were specified for innovative design and their high sound absorption acoustic performance. The timber wall panels are either slotted or grooved, providing impeccable sound absorption performances, but also ensuring a high class aesthetic finish and feel with a choice of timber types and finishes. Herman Miller provide “Class A” products and are renowned for great quality and therefore required a sound absorption solution to comply with their own brand style. Soundis fitted perfectly to the Herman Miller specification throughout the installation space being treated and installed by UK Acoustic Systems.
