Acoustics & Vibration Measurement and Solutions Services
Expert acoustic and vibration advice and system implementation.
Our capabilities extend to design services and construction oversight for acoustically sensitive spaces within a facility, with consideration given to acoustic and vibration flanking paths, ambient sound and vibration levels, facility contributions, and sound or vibration level expectations.
Services include:
- Product and equipment specification
- Supplier selection and material procurement
- Engineering design
- Design review
- Installation and construction management
- Owner’s representation
- Commissioning and commissioning management
- Acceptance criteria preparation and review
- Independent witness testing
ACS ACOUSTICS & VIBRATION EXPERTISE
Product Specification
Using vibration testing equipment, the ACS engineers work with your team to size and specify requirements for acoustic products and manufacturing applications. Examples include:
- Sound door specification – size, STC rating, door swing, fire rating, hardware type
- Acoustic window – size, STC rating, fire and blast protection rating
- Anechoic and hemi-anechoic room specification – room dimensions, cut-off frequency, background noise level, construction type, HVAC interface, cable pass location identification, vibration isolation requirements
- Reverberation room specification – room dimensions, background noise level, surface finish, construction type, HVAC interface, cable pass location identification, vibration isolation requirements
