Sound & Vibration testbed
A nationally unique resource for development of building systems and products. An established and complete building acoustic laboratory with qualified personnel, proven and structured work routines, and an emphasis on SMEs.
The resource is accredited for a range of acoustic measurements according to national and international standards. It is conjoined with the National Metrology Institute for Sound Pressure and Acceleration, which guarantees traceable measurements of the highest quality. The laboratory offers objective and subjective evaluations as well as simulations in collaboration with SDL at RISE.
The complete building acoustic lab offers e.g. measurements of:
- Vertical sound transmission in floors
- Sound insulation of building systems, such as facades and walls, and building components and products, such as doors, windows, moldings, etc.
- Noise from technical installations, such as pipes and water fittings as well as ventilation and filters etc. (with controllable airflow)
- Machinery noise and vibrations
- Material parameters
- Sound absorption (reverberation room and impedance tube)
- Sound radiation/ sound intensity (reverberation and hemi-anechoic room)
- Airborne and impact sound insulation and installation noise in buildings (in-situ)
- Perception of measured noise characteristics
