Accredited Acoustic Measurements
Objective Assessment of Building Acoustic Performance
Acoustic comfort should not be assessed through subjective perception, but through measurements performed in accordance with established methods and recognised standards. Accredited acoustic measurements provide the most reliable means of determining whether a building or space complies with regulatory requirements and the specified design performance.
PEH Solutions organises and coordinates accredited acoustic measurements carried out by accredited laboratories. We analyse the results and assist in selecting appropriate technical solutions where improvements to the building’s acoustic performance are required.
What Does the Service Include?
- Organisation of measurements by an accredited laboratory.
- Definition of the required testing scope.
- Measurement of airborne sound insulation between rooms.
- Measurement of impact sound transmission between floors.
- Measurement of noise generated by technical installations and equipment.
- Measurement of reverberation time.
- Measurement of indoor noise levels.
- Analysis and interpretation of the results.
- Assistance in developing measures to improve acoustic comfort.
Who Is This Service For?
Accredited acoustic measurements are suitable for:
- investors
- construction companies;
- architects and design practices;
- construction supervision consultants;
- national and municipal authorities;
- industrial enterprises;
- hotels, hospitals, schools and public buildings;
- owners of residential and commercial properties.
The service is applicable to new construction and refurbishment projects, as well as during building commissioning or the assessment of existing properties.
When Are Accredited Measurements Recommended?
- After construction has been completed.
- Before the building is commissioned or brought into use.
- During the acceptance of completed construction and installation work.
- When disputes arise regarding noise levels.
- When acoustic comfort problems are identified.
- When verifying installed sound insulation systems.
- When evidence of compliance with regulatory requirements is required.
How Does the Process Work?
1. Preliminary Consultation
We review the project, the intended use of the building and the purpose of the measurements.We define the required tests and coordinate the overall process.
2. On-Site Measurements
The accredited laboratory carries out the required acoustic measurements using specialised equipment and in accordance with the applicable European standards.
3. Test Report
Following completion of the measurements, the accredited laboratory issues an official test report documenting the measured acoustic performance.
4. Analysis and Engineering
RecommendationsThe PEH Solutions team analyses the results and, where necessary, proposes specific engineering solutions to improve the building’s acoustic performance.
What Are the Benefits for the Client?
Accredited measurements provide a reliable and independent assessment of a building’s acoustic performance. They make it possible to:
- demonstrate compliance with regulatory requirements;
- assess the quality of completed construction and installation work;
- identify the causes of acoustic problems;
- reduce the risk of future disputes between investors, contractors and project owners;
- plan effective measures to improve acoustic comfort.
Why Choose PEH Solutions?
In addition to coordinating accredited measurements, PEH Solutions provides comprehensive engineering expertise in analysing the results and developing effective technical solutions. The client therefore receives not only an official test report, but also a professional assessment with specific recommendations for optimising the building’s acoustic performance.
We work closely with accredited laboratories and specialist partners to provide a complete process—from organising the measurements to implementing the required engineering solutions.
