We were instructed to complete Sound Insulation Testing on this Grade II listed building in the delightful rural village of Kings Bromley in Staffordshire
This was an Airborne Party Wall test
To pass an Airborne test, you must score 43dbor higher (45 on new build properties)
Airborne tests measure the difference in sound levels between the receiver room and neighbouring walls or floors
If the sound output in the receiver room is 100db and the sound leakage being passed through into the neighbouring room is 40db, then the result would be 60 and therefore would be a pass
THE PROCESS
After reviewing drawings, on site testing was ready to be completed. All calibrated equipment was setup in accordance to our strict procedures to ensure the most accurate result possible
