Vibration Assessment

Comprehensive Vibration Analysis for Various Environments

Expert vibration assessments for residential, office, and workshop buildings, ensuring compliance with industry standards and mitigating potential issues related to human comfort and structural integrity.

 

– Transport Infrastructure – Assessing the effects of vibrations from major roads, railways, and underground networks.

– Community Impact Studies – Predicting and managing potential concerns from occupants regarding vibration-related discomfort.

 

BS 6472 Assessment: Evaluating Vibration Impact

For developments near transport routes or industrial sites, we conduct assessments in line with BS 6472, the British Standard for evaluating vibration effects on people in buildings. This includes:

Assessing Human Perception & Discomfort
– Understanding how vibrations impact residents and workers.

Vibration Dose Value (VDV) Analysis
– A scientific metric to quantify vibration severity based on frequency-weighted acceleration.

Impact Prediction & Compliance
– Estimating the likelihood of adverse reactions and ensuring regulatory compliance.

Plant & Machinery Vibration Assessments

Vibration analysis for HVAC systems, pumps, and industrial machinery to ensure compliance with operational limits and avoid structural or occupant-related concerns.
