Our Scope
MDA was engaged to provide full acoustic consulting throughout the planning, design and construction phases, including review of glazing and façade performance, sound insulation and mechanical services.
CHALLENGES
Given the close proximity of large commercial tenancies below the residential apartments, detailed isolation treatments were developed to ensure effective sound insulation and minimise noise transfer. Furthermore, strict planning conditions relating to train noise, local traffic noise and freeway traffic noise led to upgraded façades.
