Acoustics
Whatever your requirements, you’re in safe hands with MZA Acoustics.
During their careers, our directors and acousticians have played key roles in some of the UK’s key infrastructure projects, including The Shard in London, Alder Hey Children’s Hospital in Liverpool, Tottenham Court Road Crossrail station in London, and also international projects such as the Perth Arena and Mirvac Tower in Perth, Australia. Their extensive experience in the acoustic, noise, and vibration industry enables them to provide cost-effective and practical solutions that are tailored to the scope of your project and your needs as a client.
Imagine if the acoustics of a building were as impressive as its visual appeal. Echoey reception areas and inadequate sound separation between different spaces can quickly undermine the quality of a building, regardless of its high-end architectural design and finishes. At MZA Acoustics, we ensure that acoustic performance is a fundamental aspect of the building design. We’ll propose acoustic criteria tailored to your specific needs and that of your project, rather than simply following Standards.
We specialize in providing thorough environmental noise and vibration impact assessments for planning applications and appeals. Whether it’s a small standalone assessment or a detailed input into Environmental Statements and Planning Appeals, our pragmatic approach and extensive experience in full project lifecycle design ensure we deliver valuable insights from the master-planning and concept stages. We offer robust and holistic solutions to guarantee the suitability and viability of your project from day one.
Building services are a fundamental part of modern building design but can often be a source of noise and vibration. At MZA Acoustics, we offer a complete range of building services acoustic solutions, from initial concept through design and installation inspections, to troubleshooting, diagnosis, mitigation schemes, and condition monitoring. Our extensive experience spans domestic installations, commercial and educational projects, energy centres, industrial applications, and major power generation infrastructure. We provide effective, practical, and cost-efficient control of noise and vibration for both internal and external areas, ensuring optimal acoustic performance
At MZA Acoustics, we understand the significant impact that whole building isolation systems can have on a project. Our team collaborates closely with design teams to minimize these requirements wherever possible. We have successfully implemented whole building isolation systems in numerous projects where they have been used to protect noise sensitive areas of new buildings from structure borne re-radiated noise from underground train movements. Our expertise and strong relationships with suppliers enable us to guide design teams through the complex process of integrating whole building isolation systems. Trust us to ensure your project meets its noise mitigation goals efficiently and effectively.
Alongside our core services, we can also help with:
- Intelligibility assessments of PA/VA systems
- Construction/Demolition noise and vibration monitoring, including COPA Section 61 assessments
- Pre-completion acoustic testing services
- Noise and vibration at work assessments
- Windfarm noise studies
- Expert Witness services
