 Workplace noiseNoise protection at existing and planned workplaces
Measurement of noise pollution at existing
workplaces and calculations for future workplaces.
Allocation of noise exposure zones according to European regulations
"2003/10/EG" Development of action plans and supervision of implementation. |
 |
| If noise reduction
is required, sound analyses are performed using sound intensity probes, one-third octave
analysis, FFT-analysis, vibration analysis, sound-tube measurements etc. Solutions are
detailed in drawings including lists of all relevant parameters. Information about
suppliers and manufacturers of noise protection components is provided with professional
guidance for tendering. |

| Noise reduction
concepts for existing machinery and plant
Performance of sound
analyses using exact measurement and calculation methods for determination of noise impact
at work places and to employees.
Determination of noise impact to staff. Evaluation of effectiveness of organizational
measures (shorter time of sound exposure etc).
|
 |
Based
on these analyses measures for noise reduction at the sound source at minimum cost can be
prepared.
If these measures are insufficient or too costly, other ideas can be offered, such as
sound absorbing ceilings, sound barriers between source and work place, encasing of
machinery or sound insulation in staff areas.
The new EU-regulation "Noise" requires those responsible for safety at the
workplace to revise noise handling and puts cost pressure on the companies. Through early
integration of noise management into all operation processes, including organization,
purchasing, quality control etc. costs can be reduced considerably.
