Read more“I have been working in the public sector for over 20yrs in the field of Environmental Protection – noise and pollution control. During this time I have used various Class 1 precision sound level meters i.e. Casella, Bruel & Kjaer, Rion, Norsonic, NTi and Cirrus in building acoustics with regards to inadequate sound insulation, but […]
Read moreOver recent years we have seen big increases in all types of building projects from domestic houses to major infrastructure projects like HS2. More and more local authorities are including monitoring requirements for noise, dust and vibration right from the planning stage and all too often there’s either no mains power on site yet or […]
Read moreWhen you are measuring something accurately, you need to know that the results are really what they say they are. Therefore, it is necessary to compare your measurement capability to some reference. A calibration will allow you to check this and have confidence in your instrument going forward. Think of it as a kind of […]
Read moreLontra has a culture of innovation, encouraging thorough engineering evaluation to design better products. They wanted a rigorous approach to identify and precisely target key noise sources in our new blower, to efficiently achieve a quiet product. LP2 is the first fully packaged blower manufactured by Lontra using its proven patented Blade Compressor. It operates […]
Read moreUnder the Building Regulations, Approved Document E (ADE) 2003 (as amended 2010, 2013, 2015) sound testing between residential dwellings is a requirement for building control sign-off. What to test? Under ADE, a full set (comprising of 2x airborne wall tests, 2x airborne floor tests and 2x impact floor tests) is required to sign off up […]
Read moreAnyone who’s interested in measuring the performance of headsets, smart devices, telephones, earbuds and the like should be familiar with the need for a mouth simulator. This is a kind of ‘standardised’ loudspeaker, which emulates the frequency and dispersion characteristics of the human, and is also often found built-in to head and torso simulators. A […]
Read moreConstruction developments, roads and other infrastructure projects often have a substantial and sometimes long-term impact on the local air quality. One of the most common impacts is increased dust or particulate matter (PM) concentrations. Depending on the perceived risk, monitoring may need to be carried out during both demolition and construction activities to ensure that […]
Read moreNo, it’s not impossible at all, and probably it is related to measuring low levels. By having a think about how statistical levels are calculated, all should become clear. Firstly, the LAeq is the A-weighted equivalent energy over a certain period. It’s independent of time weighting (e.g. F), and the measurement range of the instrument […]
Read moreListen have recently announced the release of SoundCheck 19. This update includes powerful advancements for users making multichannel measurements. The single channel RTA is replaced with a new multi-channel version for viewing multiple signal paths simultaneously, a new RT60 room acoustics module is available, and WASAPI-exclusive mode and AmpConnect 621 control are added. See all […]
Read moreHere at AcSoft, we often get asked about the difference between FFT analysis and 1/3 octave analysis, so, equipped with an Apollo and Samurai software, John gives a short non-mathematical description of the two methods, and how they differ in practice, especially when converting from FFT to 1/3 octaves. To find out more about the […]
