Acoustic Survey, Design & Testing for Sporting Events and Leisure Venues
There is a variety of work we undertake for sporting events, facilities and leisure venues. This can be as part of planning for one off events, design and construction of new facilities or dealing with complaint situations.
Motorsport Events, Racetracks and Sporting Venues
Acoustic consultancy for motorsport, racetracks and sporting venues can vary enormously in its scope by the nature of these sectors. Previously we have undertaken work that included:
- Survey and design work for new facilities at existing racetracks.
- Complaint investigation and mitigation for motorsport circuits used for testing, race and track days.
- Acoustic consultancy and noise impact assessment for new sports facilities of all sizes from community and school facilities up to those used by teams competing in the top leagues. This can involve minimising noise impact on residents when applying for planning permission and also acoustic design so the spaces sound and feel as desired.
- Investigation and design of mitigation for sports facilities subject to complaints from nearby residents.
If you require any assistance with a sporting venue, event or motorsport facility, please do not hesitate to contact us and discuss how we can help.
Leisure Centre Acoustic Design
The acoustic design of a leisure centre is an important part of ensuring the facilities function as they should, whether a new build project, extension or an existing facility that needs improvement works.
Typically, areas of work cover:
- Noise impact assessment and control of fixed plant, deliveries, car park and operational sound at nearby dwellings
- Internal sound level in appropriate spaces
- Sound insulation between rooms or areas – some areas of leisure centres can generate surprisingly high sound levels
- Room acoustics and the control of reverberation. This can be especially important in large sports halls and changing facilities.
The acoustic performance criteria can be based on recognised guidance documents and standards or bespoke criteria formed in collaboration with the end client. Whatever the size and complexity of the project, we are happy to help ensure that the acoustic design enhances the environment.
Please contact us to discuss any aspect of noise control and acoustics for sporting events, motorsport and leisure centres.
