Core Services, Competences and Expertise

Underwater
Noise Prognosis

  • for impulsive sound (e.g. piling noise), continuous sound of Offshore Windfarms (e. g. operational sound) according to national guidelines and project-specific requirements of the approval authorities
  • during UXO clearance
  • all underwater noise prognosis may be conducted with or without available noise reduction measures
  • vessel based constructions (e.g. Pipe- or cable laying)

Underwater
Noise Measurement

  • environmental sounds / background noises (e.g. as per BSH 2011) for e.g. environmental compatibility studies
  • impulse sound/noise at construction sites (e. g. pile driving / UXO detonations as per ISO 18406, 2017)
  • continuous sound/noise of construction sites (e.g. vibratory pile driving or vessel-based constructions like cable laying)
  • operating noises of offshore wind turbines
  • evaluation of noise reduction measures according to DIN SPEC 45653

Consulting Services
& Research

  • preparation of noise protection concepts and implementation plans
  • selection of noise protection measures at works on construction sites
  • support in the plan approval procedure and the authorization process

Research in the field of underwater sound propagation and further development of noise mitigation measures and the evaluation of hydro sound imissions on the marine environment

Immission Control –
Sound & Vibrations

  • consultancy for approval requirements
  • determination of emissions/immissions of sounds & vibrations
  • conception of noise mitigation & vibration-reducing measures
  • measurements of low-frequent and tonal sounds
  • sound-calculation of road- and rail traffic systems
  • calculation of the immission-relevant sound emissions
  • arranged inspection and observation measurements for sounds & vibrations

Immission Control –
Wind Energy Turbine

  • determination of sound power of wind turbines according to FGW policy and DIN EN 61400-11
  • performance of noise immission measurements for the evaluation of sound immissions generated by onshore wind farms
  • infrasound measurements

Occupational Health
& Safety

For noise and vibrations at the workplace:

  • consultation for employers regarding the legal obligations towards employees
  • personal or location related determination and evaluation of noise situations
  • evaluation of the determined pollution
  • conception of different noise reduction measures
  • room acoustic measurements and consultation to improve the noise situation within different work areas

Certification / accreditation and notification

DIN EN ISO 45001: 2018

Accredited as per ISO/IEC 17025 (2018) for the determination of emissions and immissions of sounds and vibrations, noise at the workplace, selected methods for noise measurements on wind turbines, underwater noise, module immission control.
