Noise can become a community issue when industrial sites expand or old machinery and equipment are replaced with newer, upgraded systems. ATCO Structures & Logistics (ASL) can help you meet the challenge by designing and constructing an acoustical retrofit of your existing buildings to make them more soundproof.
Clients from a variety of industries have called upon our engineers to reduce noise from their facilities: power generation, quarries & landfills, recycling, bottling, refining, mining, gas compression, manufacturing, steel production, smelting, pulp & paper, and more.
Acoustic Building Solutions
Our clients who require an acoustic retrofit solution for soundproof buildings are initially provided with a site noise survey that includes:
Noise level analysis at the nearest sensitive receivers - Measurement of noise levels of equipment at the facility
- Determination of the heat load of the equipment
- Assessment of the structural and mechanical adequacy of the facility to support noise control features
- Appraisal of the operational requirements, including downtime and maintenance
Our site survey supplies the acoustical and facility information we use to design the acoustical retrofit solution.
Acoustic retrofit solutions
- Acoustical upgrade of building envelope
- Silencing equipment (enclosures, barriers, silencers, acoustical louvers, etc.)
- Modifications to the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) system
- Pipe and duct lagging
