The main contractor for the MOO project – SPCCC-JV – appointed us to carry out field airborne sound insulation tests (i.e. soundproofing) for compliance testing of the Vox auditoriums at Mall of Oman prior to handover. We carried out the tests at the shell and core stage, i.e. before installation of finishes. The consultant (AECOM) […]
We were approached by the residents on the top floor of a building in Bowsher to address an issue of vibration from an extract fan installed on the roof. This fan was installed to remove smoke from a grill restaurant in the ground floor. The extract fan was installed on a metal stand which was […]
We completed this project for a private client in October 2020, who was turning part of his villa to an office. Where he would be shooting videos for his channel. So the whole idea was to treat the room so that speech is clear and would require very little processing once it’s recorded. We have […]
Problem A newly constructed home was facing an issue with their drainage pipes being too loud. The drainage pipes run above the false ceiling and don’t have insulation around the pipes or above the false ceiling. The source of noise is universally understood. Water supply pipes are pressurized, the water doesn’t splash in the pipe. But […]
We carried out third party acoustic testing to evaluate performance of a soundproof door at Oman Radio. A mock up was installed for a studio by M/s Mustafa Sultan projects division. The tests were conducted at night and report was submitted for the values requested.
We participated during the tender stage as a technical solutions provider for M/s. Khimji FD (KFD) in this project. During the initial stages, we measured the reverberation times for court halls in Muscat, Sohar and Buraimi. Based on the sizes of the rooms, we recommended reverberation times for the halls to get good speech intelligibility. […]
We were contacted by M/s. CLV Consulting from Ireland to carry out the measurements on their behalf. They could not travel to Muscat at the time due to ongoing coronavirus-related restrictions. We took noise measurements at many points in the old airport – both outside and inside. This was mainly for them to estimate the […]
This was our most satisfying project in 2019. We were hired by the school during construction of the project, to evaluate the acoustic design as was planned and “diagnose” any issues. We made a model of the hall based on the acoustic treatment scheme as was planned and simulation using University of Edinburgh Acoustics department’s […]
We were contacted by M/s. Al Kanz to provide third party testing. We were asked to measure reverberation times and indirect STI post-completion of their treatment. We were not involved in any way during design or installation of treatment. We were only involved as a third-party testing agent. We completed testing in the main sports […]
We were initially contacted to study the acoustics of the sports halls and give a detailed report of the reverberation times and noise levels within the hall. Based on our measurements which we had carried out in the hall, we proposed solutions to reduce the noise levels within the hall when all the AC machines […]
