Building Acoustics

Improve sound quality and privacy inside your building through soundproofing design, sound-leakage and impact-noise testing, and room-acoustic tuning to international standards.

Scope

  • Site survey and sound-leakage path analysis
  • STC/FSTC measurement for walls and doors (ASTM E336, ISO 16283-1)
  • Floor impact-noise testing (ISO 16283-2, ISO 717-2)
  • Background noise (NC/NR) and HVAC assessment
  • Reverberation Time and Speech Transmission Index (STI)
  • Improvement options (walls/floors/ceilings, seals, resilient channels) with BoQ and predicted results
  • Post-improvement verification testing

Standards & method

We reference ISO 16283-1/-2 for field testing of walls and floors, ISO 717-1/-2 for sound ratings, and ISO 3382-2 for reverberation, plus NC/NR for background noise.

Deliverables

  • TH/EN report with STC/FSTC, RT and NC/NR graphs
  • Good / Better / Best options with predicted outcomes
  • Material details and BoQ
  • Acceptance checklist and post-works test forms

FAQ

What is the difference between STC and FSTC?

STC comes from laboratory testing; FSTC is measured in the field and better reflects real conditions.

What STC/FSTC should I target?

It depends on room type — meeting rooms should reach FSTC 45+, general rooms may be lower.

Do we need to re-test after the works?

Yes — a verification test confirms the result meets the design target.
