Noise Modelling

Noise modelling involves predicting, analysing and controlling the noise created by your construction project. This is essential for planning and regulatory compliance, as well as minimising disturbances to and complaints from local communities.

Acoustic Consultants Ltd uses powerful noise modelling tools to visualise noise across a wide range of scenarios. Our support ensures your construction project stays within regulatory limits and avoids delays from community interference.

Why Choose Acoustic Consultants?

Well Established in the UK and Wales

With over 35 years’ experience in acoustic design, noise abatement and noise modelling, our team offers trusted guidance for construction projects through the UK and Wales.

That means you can rely on our outstanding knowledge and expertise to obtain accurate, informative data for any type of building project.

World-Leading Noise Modelling Software

For environmental noise modelling projects, we use tested and proven in-house techniques following the calculation methods of ISO9613, CRTN and CRN.

For complex schemes, or when you request it, we use 3D modelling within Computer Aided Noise Abatement (CadnaA) software.

CadnaA is the world’s leading software for the calculation, presentation, assessment and prediction of environmental noise. 

Additional Services to Enhance Noise Models

Noise modelling software is a powerful tool. But it’s not enough to provide comprehensive assessments to support your project.

For all projects, we undertake a noise survey and construct a verification model to make sure the digital noise modelling accurately replicates real-world conditions.

We issue a clear noise map of your site to indicate noise sources, changes in noise levels across the surrounding area and the overall noise level at the receiver positions. And we can provide 3D images and 3D videos where necessary.

This combination of trusted software used by skilled professionals and complementary techniques to verify accuracy ensures total compliance with noise regulations.

What Projects Require Noise Modelling?

Noise modelling is vital for most construction projects, including:

• Residential properties
• Offices
• Industrial plants
• Schools
• Healthcare facilities
• Retail and commercial centres
• Sporting and community buildings
• Police and court buildings

On a larger scale, it can also provide valuable information for building new roads and railways, and gathering data across entire towns and large urban areas.
