Sound Testing
Perfect Acoustics have experts, engineers, test tracks and facilities to test against international standards
Two different sound testing methods are available.
- Airborne sound test
- Impact sound test
Sound testing is frequently referred to as “pre-completion” testing, which denotes that it is done right before the development is finished. This is relevant to new building, but it could also be referring to a test that needs to be carried out in a completed home that is considering design or construction adjustments.
AIRBORNE SOUND TEST
- This test will be conducted between any wall, floor, or ceiling that divides a home.
- A loudspeaker is used to play pink or white noise while measuring the sound levels in each room is how the test is conducted.
- The test will determine how much noise is lost through the barrier and how much noise is conveyed via the air.
- Normal conversations, television noise, music, and many other sounds are examples of airborne noise
IMPACT SOUND TEST
- This test is conducted on a floor-to-ceiling wall separating residences.
- On the floor above the room where the sound level is monitored, a tapping device is utilized.
- The test will gauge the structural vibrations that the tapping machine transmits through the floor.
- Steps and the sound of objects falling are two examples of impact sounds.
