Noise & Vibration Monitoring

 

 
 

Compliance Monitoring of Noise Emissions and Ground Vibration

The monitoring of noise and vibration is required for most of our projects. With an extensive range of noise and vibration monitoring equipment, ATP can provide well maintained and calibrated units for projects throughout Australia.

Noise Monitoring

ATP Consulting has a large number of noise monitoring equipment suitable for any required purpose. Equipment can be provided within 24-hours in the wider area of South-east Queensland and Northern New South Wales. We also services regional areas throughout QLD, WA, NSW and NT, using our local associates to provide a cost effective service.

Typical noise monitoring services include:

  • Transport noise measurements (road traffic, railway or aircraft noise), for external building designs of dwellings located within transport noise corridors.

  • Construction noise monitoring (used for compliance to noise criteria from Environmental Management Plan (EMP), or noise limits specified under DA conditions).

  • Commercial noise monitoring (compliance with DA conditions or in response to complaint investigations).

  • Industrial operations (industrial plant or extractive industries - noise monitoring for compliance with ERA License conditions, or as part of complaint investigations).

Vibration Monitoring

Vibration monitoring is typically required for all projects involving the construction of infrastructure such as roads, railways and bridges. ATP can provide vibration monitoring for small or large scale vibration related issues.

Typical vibration monitoring services include:

  • Major infrastructure project (construction vibration monitoring for compliance with criteria specified in Environmental Management Plan (EMP), or with vibration limits specified by the regulatory authorities for the specific project, or in response to complaints related to nuisance or alleged building damage).

  • Small scale projects (site specific vibration measurements in accordance with relevant standard specified by the regulatory authorities for the specific projects or in accordance with the ERA License conditions).

  • Industrial operations (industrial plant or extractive industries - vibration monitoring for compliance with ERA License conditions, or as part of complaint investigations).

Following all noise and/or vibration monitoring periods, ATP provides analysis of monitoring data in the required format, presenting the methodology, tabulated and graphical results and assessment of compliance for the relevant noise or vibration criteria with recommendations for noise and vibration control (if required).
