Building Services Noise & Vibration

Noise and vibration from building services systems is one of the most common causes of post-handover complaints.

Focus Acoustics helps design teams predict, control, and verify building services noise and vibration before issues arise on site.

The Problem We Solve

Building services noise issues often arise because:

Once installed, remediation is disruptive and expensive.

We work with MEP engineers and architects to:

Our advice is always grounded in buildability and real-world installation.

Building services noise assessments
Building services vibration impact assessments
Plant room acoustic reviews
Mitigation and isolation specifications
Coordination and design review comments
Identification of sources of problemematic noise and vibration in operational buildings

Early design stages for best value – we can provide key strategic advice even from the pre-concept design stage
Prior to finalising plant selections
On projects with noise-sensitive spaces in proximity to noise generating spaces

If building services noise could compromise occupant comfort, early intervention is critical.
