Site testing

Sound testing

Plan sound insulation testing around the completed construction and the required evidence.

What this service helps you do.

Sound insulation testing evaluates the acoustic separation between identified spaces. Ordellis reviews the dwelling layout and building control brief, agrees the applicable airborne and impact testing scope, and coordinates the test schedule and report for the relevant separating walls and floors.

What’s included.

  • Review of the separating construction and agreed testing brief.
  • An identified test schedule and site readiness requirements.
  • Airborne and impact sound insulation testing arrangements as applicable.
  • A report documenting the tested locations and results for the agreed scope.

What we need to get started.

  • Plans showing dwelling boundaries, separating walls and separating floors.
  • The building control request and any agreed test sampling requirements.
  • Construction details and the proposed finishes at tested locations.
  • Completion programme and access to the spaces on both sides of each test.

Test selection, site conditions, reporting and tester arrangements are confirmed in the quotation. This service concerns building sound insulation; any wider acoustic design or environmental noise assessment needs a separately agreed scope.

Your questions, answered.

Do walls and floors need the same test?

The relevant test depends on the separating construction and the project requirements. The agreed schedule identifies airborne tests and any impact tests required.

Can you help with a conversion into flats?

Yes. Send the layout, separating construction details and building control brief so the relevant testing scope can be established.
