萝莉原创 Noise Monitoring

We supply a range of Noise and Vibration measurement instruments for 萝莉原创 noise monitoring so you can be confident in everything you measure. 萝莉原创, demolition, and mining are industries where high noise levels are common and where both occupational and environmental noise monitoring may be needed.

Environmental Noise

Construction or demolition noise, vehicles, and heavy machinery all contribute to noise, dust, and ground vibration issues, add to those other common sounds from construction sites such as additional site workers shouting, loud radios and other intrusive noises and it’s easy to see how noise pollution in neighbourhoods and communities can become a serious problem.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) states that “noise pollution is the biggest cause of environmental health problems”. In addition to the annoyance, it can cause stress, and sleep disturbance and contribute to poor mental health as well as have a negative impact on wildlife.

Local and national governments together with international agencies have developed a range of laws, codes of practice and standards for construction, demolition and other open sites to adhere to. These include:

BS5228: A code of practice in the UK for the control of noise and vibration on construction sites. This standard sets out the criteria a sound level meter must meet to measure and monitor construction noise levels.

Section 60 & 61 of the Control of Pollution Act 1974 deal with the control of noise and ‘prior consent for work’ on construction sites. Local authorities have the power to impose restrictions on building operations, permitted working hours and methods to control and mitigate noise impacts using noise and vibration monitoring.

Other voluntary schemes exist such as ‘Considerate Constructors’ also encourage sites to manage their noise to reduce the possibility of noise complaints.
