A BS4142 noise assessment will sometimes result in the need for noise to be reduced before planning will be given permission to proceed.

Sound Planning designs suitable noise mitigation strategies in order to gain planning permission for systems creating  noise which exceeds noise rating levels required in BS 4142: 1997.

Strategies include:

• Acoustic Enclosures (see above)
• Acoustic Screens
• Attenuators
• Acoustic Barriers
• Absorptive Lining
• Acoustic Louvres (see above)
• Fan Jackets
• Acoustic Duct Wrap
• Plenum Chambers
• Earth Bunds
• Equipment Respecification

Sound Planning liaises with both client and the Local Planning Authority (LPA) in order to succesfully resolve planning issues regarding noise.
