building acoustic assessment
Civil and industrial construction works must be designed and built so that the noise to which occupants and people located in the vicinity are subjected is maintained at levels that are not detrimental to their health and such as to ensure acoustically adequate environments characterized by low noise and good sound insulation for living comfort, usability of spaces and productivity of occupants. Protecting the outdoor and living environment from noise pollution is not only a legislative obligation but is also a common goal of buyers, builders, and insurers.
For this reason, it is essential to carry out an assessment and control activity to verify the compliance of the requirements and performance of the building and its parts with the requirements of the current regulations according to their intended use, the adequacy of the design choices made, and the conformity of the workmanship with good executive technique.
