may be measured by volume and shall discharge directly from an approved water measuring and
discharge device with controls so arranged that only measured water shall flow into the mixer. The
device shall also have a visible indicator showing the quantity of water measured and shall be
provided with a locking arrangement on the volume control so that unauthorised adjustment will be
prevented. Admixtures shall be incorporated into the mixing water in accordance with the
Manufacturer’s recommendations.
Concrete shall be mixed only in the quantities for immediate use. The use of partly hardened
concrete or re-mixing of such concrete with additional cement, aggregate or water, shall not be
permitted.
Concrete shall be mixed in batch mixers of an approved type or types which shall ensure uniform
distribution of the ingredients through the mass. Mixing by hand shall not be permitted except in an
emergency and then only subject to the approval of the Superintendent.
Prior to placing concrete, formwork shall be cleaned of all hardened concrete, free of water and
other foreign matter. Concrete shall not be deposited in wet trenches or in running water.
No concrete shall be placed until the excavations, formwork and reinforcement have been
inspected and approved by the nominated registered Building Surveyor. Notice of intention to pour
must be in writing and submitted at least two days prior to the pour. Any concrete poured without
approval may be rejected.
Before inspection, the Contractor shall check that reinforcement is securely fixed in place, forms
are clean and free from water and debris and that the whole of the work is in strict accordance with
the drawings and this specification.
The Contractor shall have a competent experienced supervisor present throughout the placing of
formwork and reinforcing and the pouring of concrete.
Concrete shall be conveyed and deposited continuously, as close as possible to its final location,
until completion of any section or until an approved construction joint is reached, without
segregation and at a rate which prevents stiffening of the concrete. Approved mechanical vibrators
shall be used by experienced operators to compact the concrete during placing. Concrete shall be
thoroughly worked under and around reinforcement and the finished work shall be a dense,
uniform mass, free from voids, segregation and honeycombing.
Particular attention is drawn to SAA Code AS 3600 regarding hot and cold weather requirements.
Concrete shall be placed in daylight or under approved lighting.
Concrete shall be conveyed from the mixer to the place of final deposit without any delay and by
methods which will not cause segregation and/or loss of materials. Pumped concrete shall be
permitted, subject to the foregone conditions of this Specification.
Each monolithic portion of work shall be placed in one (1) continuous pour, except where the use
of construction joints is permitted. The order of placing shall be as required by the Superintendent
and shall be so arranged that new concrete is continually being placed against unset concrete, so
that a monolithic structure shall result.
Concrete shall be placed as nearly as practicable in its final position. Free dropping of concrete
from a height greater than 1.5m, or placing concrete far from its final position and working it along
forms, shall not be permitted.
Concrete shall not be placed at a rate greater than that which will permit satisfactory compaction
not to a depth greater than 500mm before compaction thereof.
Concrete shall only be placed in the presence of the Superintendent or his duly appointed
representative.
No re-tempered concrete, or concrete that has partially hardened or has been contaminated by
foreign matter shall be deposited in the work.
E3.8 COMPACTION
Unless otherwise approved by the Superintendent, concrete shall be compacted by vibrators and
concreting shall not commence until, in the opinion of the Superintendent, the Builder has sufficient
vibrators, including standby units, available at the site. Vibrators shall be of the internally vibrated
power type with a frequency of not less than 5000 vibrations per minute or vibrating screeds of a
type or types approved by the Superintendent.
The vibrators shall be inserted into the concrete continuously and progressively along the pour for
just sufficient time at each insertion to thoroughly compact the concrete. Over vibration shall be
avoided.
Vibrators shall be uniformly spaced and not further apart than the radius beyond which vibration is
visibly effective. Vibration shall achieve uniform plasticity of the concrete but shall nowhere be
continued to the extent that localised areas or mortar are formed.
The Builder shall ensure that no damage occurs to partially set concrete during compaction of
nearby concrete.
Where practicable and in addition to the vibrators, a suitable tool shall be worked up and down
next to the forms until coarse material is forced back and a mortar layer is brought to the next form.
The finished concrete shall be a dense homogeneous mass, completely filling the forms,
thoroughly embedding the reinforcement, free of stone pockets and compacted to bring only a
slight excess of mortar to the surface.
E3.9 CONSTRUCTION JOINTS
Wherever the concrete has taken its initial set by reason of placing being stopped or delayed
before completion of the portion of the work under construction, the point of stopping shall be
deemed a construction joint. Placing of concrete shall be continued without cessation throughout
the whole of any section of the work between the approved construction joints.
The location of construction joints shall be planned in advance and conform with the Engineers
drawings.
If, due to breakdown or other unforseen contingency, a construction joint becomes necessary at a
point not previously approved, concreting shall be continued by means to a point designated by the
Superintendent or his representative, and a construction joint formed at that location.
Before placing new concrete on or against set concrete, the surface of the set concrete shall be
thoroughly roughened, cleaned of all laitance and loose material and kept damp for not less than 2
hours.
Vertical construction joints shall be formed against a barrier.
Before placing new concrete on or against concrete which has set, the forms shall be tightened
and the surface of the set concrete be thoroughly roughened, cleaned of all laitance and/or loose
materials and kept damp for not less than two (2) hours. Immediately before placing the new
concrete, the set concrete shall be covered with a neat cement slurry finished onto the surface.
For basement walls, slabs and footings immediately before placing new concrete, a continuous
strip of Hydrotite Water Stop shall be placed on the set concrete and the remainder of the surface
shall be covered with a neat cement slurry brushed into the surface.
E3.10 SURFACE FINISHES
After placing of concrete, all exposed surfaces shall be protected by approved means against loss
of moisture for a period of at least seven (7) days and against damage by rain until the concrete
has hardened.
All concrete top surfaces shall be kept continuously wet for the above period by use of an
approved covering, such as good quality hessian, building paper covered with hessian or other
approved means. Soaker hoses or rose sprays shall not be used to apply water to the covering
material to keep the surface of the concrete continuously moist. At no time during the first seven
(7) days shall the surface of the concrete be permitted to dry out.
Sprayed curing compounds will not be permitted on surfaces which are to have a subsequent
surface applied to them. Approved curing compounds may be used on other locations. Curing
compounds with a wax emulsion base are those types which will be approved.
All formed surfaces of concrete which have been placed for not more than fourteen (14) days shall
be cured in a similar manner immediately following stripping.
Wind exposure shall be prevented by the Builder who shall erect breaks to the satisfaction of the
Superintendent to protect concrete during curing.
E3.11 TOLERANCES AND SURFACE FINISHES
Unless otherwise specified, all floors and walls shall be finished to the tolerances specified in
AS3600
E3.12 COLD WEATHER REQUIREMENTS
When concreting in cold weather, precautions shall be taken to prevent the concrete from freezing
at any time during the curing period.
When the temperature of the surrounding air falls below 5ºC, the concrete shall be maintained at a
temperature of at least 5ºC until the expiration of the curing period. Concrete placed when the
temperature of the surrounding air is below 5ºC shall have a temperature not lower than 10ºC
when placed in forms.
Salts or other chemicals shall not be used for the prevention of freezing.
E3.13 HOT WEATHER REQUIREMENTS
In hot weather, precautions shall be taken to avoid premature stiffening of fresh mix and to reduce
water absorption and evaporation losses. When the temperature of surrounding air is higher than
32ºC, the following provisions shall apply:
a) The formwork shall be continuously sprayed with cold water in advance of the concreting.
Excess water shall be removed from the inside of the forms immediately prior to the
concrete placement. The reinforcement and the formwork, if metal forms are used, shall be
protected from the effects of hot winds and direct sunlight.
b) Concrete shall have a temperature not higher than 32ºC when placed, either following the
use of chilled mixing water, or by spraying of the coarse aggregate, or both, and if
necessary by covering the container in which the concrete is transported to the form.
c) The concrete shall be mixed, transported, placed and compacted as rapidly as possible and
the element of structure shall then be covered with an impervious membrane or with wet
sand or wet hessian.
d) Curing compounds may be used as an alternative to the requirements of paragraph c)

above.
E3.14 QUALITY CONTROL
a) Quality Control (Project Control)

All concrete shall be obtained from a Concrete Supplier (to be approved by the Engineer) operating
“Project Control Testing” (as defined in AS 3600 on all concrete mixes).
The Builder shall be responsible for all sampling and testing of concrete at his own expense and
shall supply all labour, materials, equipment, including moulds and other necessary items
therefore.
The Builder shall arrange for the concrete testing to be carried out by an independent established
testing laboratory recognised by N.A.T.A. and approved by the Engineer. Testing laboratories
associated with the concrete supplier will not be approved.
b) Certification of Materials
The Builder shall ensure that the N.A.T.A. endorsed Certificate of Tests of materials incorporated
in the concrete as specified, are available on request.
The Builder shall ensure that the supplier of ready Mixed Concrete will permit inspection of the
plant and materials and, if so required, will permit the taking of samples for testing purposes.
c) Sampling and Job Control of Concrete

Test specimens from any batch of concrete shall be sampled in accordance with AS 1012 Part 1 -
2014 “Method for Sampling Fresh Concrete”.
All samples shall consist of three (3) cylinders of 150mm diameter and 300mm in height. One
cylinder shall be tested at 7 days and the other two at 28 days.
The truck to be tested shall be selected by the Acceptor before he has seen the concrete or the
delivery docket.
To identify samples, the following data must be recorded in the Samplers field book:-
i. Entry point to site.
ii. Date and time of taking the sample.
iii. Name of the Supplier.
iv. Number of the Delivery Docket.
v. Method of sampling.
vi. Location of sampling.
vii. Method of identifying cylinders.
viii. Location of batch of concrete after its placement.
ix. Slump of sample.
x. Characteristic compressive strength.
The Acceptor shall witness the initial discharge of concrete from each truck and shall perform a
slump test after the discharge of 1/3m3 of concrete on any delivery of which he is uncertain that
slump conforms to specification requirements. The first truck in each pour and each truck samples
for compression test cylinders shall in any case be slump tested.
Should the slump of any delivery exceed the maximum acceptable figure, but not exceed the level
at which the Acceptor has instruction to reject the delivery unequivocally, the delivery may be
accepted by the Builder on his responsibility, but a sample shall be taken at the expense of the
Builder for cylinder testing.
Where suspicions of concrete quality are entertained, the Engineer shall be entitled to increase the
frequency of testing and introduce additional tests at his own discretion. If any of the concrete so
tested fails to meet any provision of the specification, then such testing shall be at the Builder’s
expense.
d) Sampling and Testing

Sampling, making and testing of goods shall comply with AS 1012.
(i) The Contractor shall arrange for the carrying out of the standard slump test and
making and testing standard test cylinders, by an independent established
laboratory recognised by N.A.T.A.
Sampling shall be carried out at regular intervals during the placement of concrete
in accordance with AS 3600-2009.
Two test cylinders and one slump test shall be taken from each third delivery.
(ii) The determination of the compressive strength of the concrete shall follow the
standard procedures set out in AS 3600-2009.
(iii) One copy of the result shall be submitted to the Engineer showing the specified
strength and location on the job of the concrete represented by the sample.
Concrete shall not be discharged into formwork whilst slump or other tests are being performed,
which could result in its rejection.
The Builder shall allow for any additional testing he may require to substantiate any construction
procedures he may wish to adopt.
e) Frequency of Sampling and Testing

The sample rate given applies to each particular mix design.
The sampling rate by the Concrete Supplier shall not be less than that given under AS 3600.
The sampling rate shall be one (1) sample every six (6) trucks with a rate of one (1) sample every
five (5) trucks for concrete mixes when used in columns, with a minimum of two (2) samples per
week for that mix design, or if that mix design is produced less frequently than twice per week, then
at least one sample on each day shall be taken.
If the air temperature exceeds 32°C during any part of a pour, then an additional sample shall be
taken during the period of highest temperature.
Where, in an emergency or otherwise, concrete is obtained from a different plant to that which
normally supplies a mix, then full AS 3600 sampling rates shall be employed on all concrete so
obtained.
f) Certificates
The Builder shall provide the Engineer with two (2) copies of the manufacturer’s certificate for each
batch of ready mixed concrete delivered to site, in accordance with AS 1379.
Provide the Engineer with two (2) copies of the Certificates endorsed by the testing laboratory for
all tests carried out in accordance with the specification.
g) Acceptance Basis for Concrete Strength

Acceptance of the concrete shall be primarily based on compliance of the tests with the
requirements of AS 3600 and the reduced frequency of testing shall not be grounds for avoiding
these requirements.
h) Rejection
The superintendent may reject before placement, any batch of concrete which, in his opinion
does not conform with the design approved therefore, or is unsatisfactory in any respect of which
a delivery docket containing full information as specified herein is not immediately available.
Should the concrete fail to comply with the specification then all results and any other relevant
information shall be immediately forwarded to the Engineer such that they shall be analysed in
accordance with AS 3600.
The superintendent may also reject any concrete after placement because of unsatisfactory finish
or because of incorrect positioning or other failure to conform to the requirements of this
specification. Upon such rejections, the Builder may seek the approval of the superintendent to
carry out at his, the Builder’s expense. a load test or other tests on the concrete so rejected and/or
to have core samples taken and tested and the superintendent may, should he consider such to be
advisable, allow the Builder to proceed with the tests. Concrete which is rejected and concrete
which fails the approved tests shall be demolished or removed from the site and replaced with
concrete conforming to the requirements of this specification.
Furthermore, the superintendent may have any concrete analysed in accordance with AS 1012 or
may arrange for core samples to be taken and tests carried out in accordance with Clause 4.10 of
AS 3600. Should the results of any such analysis or test not be in accordance with the
requirements of this specification, the concrete represented by such analysis or test may be
rejected and the full cost to the Proprietor, including reasonable allowance for indirect costs, will be
chargeable to the Builder and will be deducted from monies due or becoming due to the Builder,
pursuant to the Contract Terms of Payment.
E3.15 TREATMENT OF DEFECTS ON FORMED SURFACES
No repairs to concrete shall be made until after inspection by the Superintendent, and then only in
strict accordance with his direction.
As soon as forms are removed, all exposed surfaces shall be carefully examined and any
irregularities found in the surface of the concrete shall be immediately rubbed down in a manner
satisfactory to the superintendent so as to secure a smooth uniform and continuous surface.
Plastering or coating of surfaces to be smoothed will not be permitted. Concrete containing voids,
holes, honeycombing or similar depression defects shall be completely removed and replaced,
provided that, where required or approved by the Superintendent, shallow defects shall be repaired
with mortar as hereinafter specified.
In no case will extensive patching of honeycombed concrete be permitted. All repairs and
replacements specified herein shall be promptly executed by the Builder and entirely at his own
expense. If the Builder fails to do so, the Superintendent may forbid him to proceed with some part
of or all of the work until the Builder shall have completed such repairs to the superintendent’s
satisfaction and no extension of time for completion or other compensation shall be made because
of any subsequent delay.
Each defective surface that is to be repaired with mortar shall, unless otherwise directed by the
Engineer, be cut back from the true surface, a minimum of 15mm over the entire area. Feather
edges shall be avoided. After preparation, the surface shall be wet sufficiently in advance, so as to
be quite moist, but not wet, when the mortar is applied.
Mortar for repair purposes shall be proportioned and mixed as specified by the Engineer. All bolts
and tie wires or other appliances passing through the concrete, shall be cut off 25mm below the
surface.
E4 Existing Concrete Floors

E4.1 INSPECTION OF EXISTING CONCRETE FLOOR SUBSTRATES
Tenderers must during the tender period inspect the site and the condition of the existing concrete
floor substrates in order to make the appropriate allowance for floor preparation.
Existing floor finishes and screeds of various thicknesses will have been removed as part of an
early works demolition package and so inspection of the remaining substrates is expected.
E4.2 FLOOR SLABS

P2.2 TACTILE INDICATORS
Refer Section W6 Tactile Indicators
P2.3 ADHESIVES
a) Adhesives shall comply generally with AS 2358 for thin or thick bed applications as
appropriate. Use adhesives to fix dry tiles to dry backgrounds only except that some
cement based adhesives may be used to butter dry tiles before fixing to mortar beds.
Spread adhesives to backgrounds in all small areas (not exceeding 1m²) and fix the tiles to
each area before surface drying of the adhesive commences. When using adhesives
provide adequate ventilation and take necessary fire precautions.
b) Cement based adhesives may be used on backgrounds of render, concrete, brick or block
but not on plaster, wood, paint or glazed surfaces.
c) Organic based adhesives may be used on backgrounds of render, concrete, brick, block,
plaster, wallboards and sheets, metal, glazed surfaces (eg existing tiling) and also painted
surfaces if the adhesive is not solvent based. Where so specified, organic based adhesives
shall be types recommended by the manufacturer for flexibility or superior waterproof
qualities.
d) Mortar Beds: Tiling: Mortar beds may be used on rigid low movement backgrounds with
adequate key and suitable suction. The latter may be achieved where necessary by wetting
the background. Alternatively a bonding agent may be applied to the background to
improve adhesion.
Make mortar beds from Portland cement and graded sand, with minimum water added.
Proprietary admixtures may be included if approved. Measure materials by volume in
suitably calibrated devices. The selected proportions shall remain uniform from batch to
batch. Mix materials mechanically unless otherwise approved. Use mortar within 2 hours of
mixing.
Thick Mortar Beds: Select proportions from the range 1:3 to 1:4 cement:sand
Thin Mortar Beds: Select proportions from the range 1:1 to 1:2 cement:sand
e) Bedding Thickness: Tiling

Thin Bed may be used when the background is true to within 3mm when tested with a 2m
straight edge. Thin beds shall not exceed the maximum thickness recommended by the
manufacturer. If the surrounding conditions are dry, application may be by the notched
trowel method; otherwise use the solid bed method. With either method the entire back tile
shall be covered by adhesive when the tile is bedded.
Thick Bed use on backgrounds with deviations up to 6mm from true when tested with a 2m
straight edge and with tiles having deep keys or frogs. Thick beds shall not exceed the
maximum thickness recommended by the manufacturer, or 12mm whichever is the less,
except that mortar beds for floor tiles may be up to 20mm thick. Apply thick beds by the
solid bed method or by the buttering method.
f) Bedding Methods: Tiling

Notched Trowel Method apply the bed to the background as a floated coat, bring to a true
surface, then form ribs on the surface by combing with a notched trowel of the type
recommended by the adhesive or additive manufacturer.
Solid Bed Method apply the bed to the background as a floated coat and bring to a true
surface.
Buttering Method spread the appropriate mix evenly over the back of the tile to a thickness
slightly greater than the final thickness required, to that when the tile is pressed or tapped
firmly into position the correct thickness is achieved and the tile is solidly bedded over its
entire surface, including corners. Fill keys or frogs with the bedding mix before buttering.
P2.4 STAINLESS STEEL TILE TRIMS
To the perimeter and meeting corners of all wall tiles provide BAT stainless steel tile trims unless
noted otherwise as detailed and shown on the drawings.
P3 Workmanship
P3.1 DRYING OF SUBSTRATE

No tiling works shall commence until tiling substrate has reached required dryness in accordance
with AS1884 - Floor Coverings - Resilient Sheet and Tiles - Laying and Maintenance Practices and
Manufacturers Recommendations. Carry out all testing of substrate to confirm requirements of
AS1884.
The sub-contractor shall make the necessary allowances to provide proprietary sealants to enable
tiling works to proceed if the moisture content can not be reached in time to meet project
programming commitments.
P3.2 WALL TILE FIXING
Fix wall tiles to WR sheets using only an organic based adhesive complying with Australian
Standard AS 2358-1980, "Adhesives for Ceramic Wall Tiles and Mosaics" Part 1-139a Type 1.
After adequate preparation of the surface apply adhesive to the whole of the area to be tiled, one
square metre at a time, in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications. Use a notched edge
trowel in a horizontal direction, never vertically, ensuring all fastener heads are properly sealed.
Firmly press tiles into the ribs of the adhesive before skinning occurs, ensuring there is contact
over the entire back surface of each tile.
Fill joints continuously at internal corners in accordance with tile and adhesive manufacturer's
specifications. Expansion joints are to be filled entirely with an approved flexible waterproof
sealant.
P 3.3 JOINTING
Joints shall be filled with a mortar of one part white cement and four parts whiting or pre-mixed
tiling grout. Colouring shall be introduced to Architect's directions.
P 3.4 SET-OUT
Confirm set out points for all interior and exterior paving prior to the commencement on works on

1.3 Purpose of report

1.0 Introduction
This report outlines the acoustic strategy that is proposed for various elements of the development and suggests design and
construction solutions to accompany the strategy. The proposals are provided for discussion and coordination with the Client
1.1 The Project and design team.
Cundall have been commissioned to prepare an acoustic design strategy report for the proposed refurbishment at Level 2 of This report covers the following criteria:
Building H at the Monash University Caulfield Campus. ▪ Internal noise levels from exterior noise sources (e.g. road traffic noise);
The project includes the fit-out of the following spaces: ▪ Internal noise levels from building services;
▪ Tutorial rooms; ▪ Sound insulation / transmission between spaces; and
▪ Group study rooms; ▪ Reverberation control.
▪ IES space;
1.4 Information provided
▪ Reception;
▪ Kitchen; and ▪ Level 2 proposed mechanical services arrangement (ref. LCE22129-M300 Rev.P4);
▪ Corridors. ▪ Existing mechanical services arrangement – LEVEL TWO (L02) (MON) (ref. A0-M-P-1003 Rev.C);
▪ Proposed Level 2 Floor Plan (ref. A01 dated 4/10/2022);
▪ Proposed Level 2 RCP (ref. A03 dated 4/10/2022);
Acoustics terminology used in this report is described in Appendix A.
▪ Learning and Teaching Building Acoustic Design Development Report prepared by Marshall Day Acoustics (MDA
1.2 Proposed plans Acoustic Brief) (ref. Rp 003 R03 2015304ML dated 7 April 2016);
▪ VAV Sound power level data, included in Appendix D.
Figure 1.1 shows the current design floor plans for the proposed fit-out.
1.5 Key assumptions and risks
▪ Building façade and façade elements performance is unknown.

▪ Existing AHU noise and silencer performance is unknown.
▪ Adequacy of sound insulation criteria from the MDA Acoustic Brief and the MDCS will need to be reviewed.
Considerations on speech privacy will need to be discussed with the Client and the project team. Current proposals do
not meet the typical recommended acoustic criteria for the understood use of the space.
1.6 Key outstanding information requirements
Other key outstanding information which will affect the development of the design and progress in the next stage is as
follows:
▪ Existing AHU noise and silencer insertion loss performance.
▪ Existing walls to be retained.
▪ Adequacy of existing wall detailing and penetrations to be retained.

2.3 Internal sound insulation

2.0 Acoustic design standards and guidelines
Clause B 05.01 of the MDCS states that:
Spaces which require a:
2.1 Basis of design
• high level of acoustic separation to be designed to a minimum sound reduction loss of 40dB(A), characterised

2015304ML dated 7 April 2016). The report proposed some departures from the Monash University Design & Construction
• low level of acoustic separation is adequate to be designed to a minimum sound reduction loss of 27dB(A).
Standards and these are understood to be desirable for this project.
• two different acoustic separation requirements, adopt the higher level of separation."
2.2 Internal noise criteria The clause does not specify whether the term “sound reduction loss” refers to the Sound Reduction Index (Rw) or the Sound
Level Difference (Dw). Based on the MDA Acoustic Brief and previous work carried out by Cundall for Monash University,
Clause B 05.02 of the Monash Design & Construction Standards (MDCS) states that:
this is intended as in-situ Sound Level Difference (Dw).
Ambient sound levels are to be at or below:
For the purpose of this report the Sound Level Difference (Dw) is assumed to be 5 dB lower than the Sound Reduction Index
• NR30 in lecture theatres and conference rooms (Rw).
• NR35 in individual offices and tutorial rooms The criteria in this report are expressed in terms of Rw in line with the MDA Acoustic Brief.
• NR40 in open planned offices, waiting areas and circulation spaces.
A summary of the relevant sound insulation criteria is provided in Table 2.2 and in the drawings mark-up provided in
The internal noise level criterion presented in the have MDA Acoustic Brief is more stringent with respect to tutorial rooms, Appendix B.
where NR30 is indicated. This has been adopted in this report.
Table 2.2 Partition and doors sound reduction index (Rw)
For waiting areas and circulation spaces the MDA Acoustic Brief provides a higher noise criterion (NR45), this has been
adopted in this report. For the reception area the criteria provided for waiting areas has been adopted. Space Room-to-room Partition with door Doorset rating (Rw)
partition rating (Rw) rating (Rw)
The internal noise criteria applicable to exterior road traffic noise intrusion would follow the same criteria outlined above.

Duct velocities appear to be too high and likely to cause regenerated noise issues within tutorial rooms.
Elevated noise levels were measured also within Tutorial Room 8 with noise levels up to LAeq,5 min 45dBA (NR 40).
In fact, noise generated by air movement in ducts and through duct fittings is a major contributor to the mechanical system
Road traffic noise levels within Tutorial Room 3, 4 and 9 were found to be between LAeq,5 min 37dBA and 41dBA (NR 32-36) noise level. The acceptable level of flow generated noise is dependent on the design criteria of the space being served by

the Table 3.1 should not be exceeded.
Upgrade of the existing glazing is recommended as follows:

Based upon this review, our recommendations for the control of mechanical services noise are detailed in the following
sections.
To resolve VAV noise breakout problems all units should be located outside tutorial rooms, in corridors and open spaces.
3.3.1 General VAV units and ductwork located near return air grilles should be wrapped with Wavebar (10kg/m2) or Muftilag (10kg/m2).
It is important that ambient noise levels are not reduced too low, as a degree of constant background noise, such as In addition, the following acoustic treatments are recommended.

internally lined with 50 mm acoustic insulation. The transfer duct will need to have minimum two 90-degree bends.
Notwithstanding the above, each device should be subjectively quiet in operation, and produce no objectionable tones or
other noticeable features of noise within occupied areas.
3.3.5 Vibration isolation
All mechanical services equipment must be vibration isolated from the structure in accordance with the recommendations of
the ASHRAE Handbook, an extract of which is provided in Appendix C.
3.3.6 Flexible duct
Excessive noise break-out may occur if flexible duct is used as the primary means of providing duct attenuation. Flexible
duct diameters should be selected according to air velocity limits detailed in the table above.
Flexible ductwork should not be compressed, or airflow otherwise restricted, to ensure excessive noise is not generated.
Where flexible ductwork crosses a full height partition, it must be cut short to each side of the partition and a section of steel
ductwork be used to span the partition. Penetrations for the steel duct must then be acoustically sealed.
All acoustic flexible duct is to be perforated, insulated acoustic type such as Westaflex Unilok S R1 A1 with minimum
insertion loss as detailed in Table 3.3.

Reverberation control

4.0 Reverberation control
4.1 General
Reverberation directly affects speech intelligibility, activity noise build-up and auditory distraction. To suitably control
reverberation within rooms acoustically absorptive surfaces will need to be incorporated.
All dedicated acoustic absorption should be mounted facing towards the main room volume and distributed evenly
throughout the room unless otherwise called for by the Acoustic Consultant.
All finishes should be dimensionally stable and adequately supported so that they exhibit no tendency to warp or bow.
Materials should be suitably robust to withstand typical day-to-day wear and tear and reasonably expected impacts from
within the room for which they are specified.
To prevent room flutter echo, wall panels are recommended over approximately 50% of the wall area on two perpendicular
walls. The wall panels can be installed from approximately 0.8m above floor level to ceiling level.
The recommended location and extent of internal acoustic finishes are provided in Table 4.1 below.

elements within the project, with a view to meeting the sound insulation requirements outlined in Section 2.3. ▪ All partitions should be full height, from the structural floor to the underside of the soffit and well-sealed.
Recommendations for partition rating are provided in the markup drawing in Appendix B. ▪ Electrical switch sockets should not be placed back-to-back within lightweight partitions but spaced a minimum 600 mm
apart (usually one vertical stud spacing).
5.1 Partitions – enclosed spaces ▪ Services penetrating acoustically rated partitions that divide adjacent noise sensitive spaces should be avoided,
Cross-wall partitions generally consist of drywall construction. A sliding glazed partitions would be utilised at the frontage of particularly ductwork. Ideally, service runs would be via the corridor, with branches spurring off the main runs into rooms

acoustic privacy at these locations are presented later in this section of the report.
Table 5-1 Example suitable partition types (drywall) 5.3 Doors

▪ 1 layer 13 mm thick standard plasterboard
Doors in group study rooms should achieve Rw 20 dB as per MDA Acoustic Brief. Such rating is considered low and
▪ Minimum 64 mm steel studs
generally this type of doors are not tested for sound insulation performance.
▪ No insulation required within cavity
▪ 1 layer 13 mm thick standard plasterboard Typical ratings for various doors are presented in Table 5.2 for reference.
Table 5.2 Door construction
Performance requirements Example door construction
Rw 20 dB ▪ 32mm timber or 10mm glass

Rw 40 dB partitions
Rw 30 dB ▪ 38 mm timber or 10 mm toughened glass with perimeter and threshold acoustic seals
▪ 64 mm steel studs
▪ 50 mm thick 10 kg/m³ acoustic cavity insulation The following guidance should be considered:
▪ Doors should be correctly aligned and should fit well into the frame; the maximum gap between door and frame must
not exceed 3 mm. For doors rated Rw 30 dB acoustic seals should be compressed evenly around the whole perimeter.
▪ Seals should be designed to avoid damage by regular use of the door and should allow for building tolerances and floor
level variations without loss in performance.
▪ Acoustic doors (Rw 30 dB and above) should be supplied as a complete door set (door and frame together with fitted
Rw 45 dB partitions seals). A certified guarantee of acoustic performance should be available for inspection from the manufacturer.
▪ 1 layer 13 mm thick standard plasterboard ▪ All acoustic seals should be continuous and not interrupted by locks, hinges, and other hardware.
▪ 64 mm steel studs
▪ 50 mm thick 10 kg/m³ acoustic cavity insulation
Doors should be designed and installed such that they do not unduly compromise the sound insulation performance of
▪ 2 layers 13 mm thick standard plasterboard partitions. Performance of partitions between adjacent rooms will be dictated by the following:
▪ Orientation of the doors; and

▪ Physical attenuation of sound through the doors.
With regard to the former, it is recommended that the location of doors in partitions to corridors is such that they are as far
Rw 55 dB Partition (plantroom) apart as possible, e.g. not either side of a junction between a dividing partition and the corridor wall. The latter will depend
- on the sensitivity of the space to which the door provides access and is illustrated in Figure 5.1 and Figure 5.2.
- 150mm solid concrete block

Figure 5.1: Example of good separation between doors Figure 5.2: Example of poor separation between doors
5.4 Acoustic sliding glazed door
In-situ, sliding doors do not perform as effectively as standard doors, and a performance significantly lower than a standard
door is expected.
The MDA Acoustic Brief correctly points out that the maximum achievable sound insulation rating is in the order of Dw 20-25
dB, corresponding to approximately Rw 30-35 dB for sliding doors. The client needs to be informed of the consequences
from adopting such rating. In fact, a rating of Dw 20-25 is generally considered very poor in terms of sound reduction and
speech privacy will be negatively affected so that conversations are clearly heard and understood between rooms, without
significantly elevated ambient noise levels.
Discussion with the Client and the project team is necessary to ensure that the acoustic limitations associated with the use of
sliding doors are understood and accepted.
Similarly, the doors accessing all group study rooms are designed to achieve Rw 20 and would present the same speech
privacy problem described above, if not worse.
In any event, the performance of the sliding door systems should be confirmed by the supplier through appropriate laboratory
test reports.

Vibration amplitude can be expressed as an engineering unit value e.g. 1mms-1 or as a ratio on a logarithmic scale in
Appendix A Acoustics terminology decibels:
Vibration velocity level, LV (dB) = 20 log (V/Vref),
‘A’-WEIGHTED SOUND LEVEL dBA
(where the preferred reference level, Vref, for vibration velocity = 10-9 m/s).
The unit generally used for measuring environmental, traffic or industrial noise is the A-weighted sound pressure level in
decibels, denoted dBA. An A-weighting network can be built into a sound level measuring instrument such that sound levels The decibel approach has advantages for manipulation and comparison of data.

EQUIVALENT CONTINUOUS SOUND LEVEL (LAeq) SOUND ABSORPTION
Another index for assessment for overall noise exposure is the equivalent continuous sound level, Leq. This is a notional When sound hits a surface, some of the sound energy is reflected, while some is absorbed by the surface material. ‘Sound

the same period. Hence fluctuating levels can be described in terms of a single figure level. NRC NOISE REDUCTION COEFFICIENT
REVERBERATION TIME (RT60) A single number rating between 0 and 1 of the ability of a material to absorb sound. It is the average of the absorption
coefficients in the 250-2000Hz octave bands. The larger the number, the more absorptive the material.
The time, in seconds, taken for a sound within a space to decay by 60 dB after the sound source has stopped is denoted at
the reverberation time. The RT is an important indicator of the subjective acoustic within an auditorium. A large RT
subjectively corresponds to an acoustically ‘live’ or ‘boomy’ space, while a small RT subjectively corresponds to an
acoustically ‘dead’ or ‘flat’ space.
VIBRATION
Vibration may be expressed in terms of displacement, velocity and acceleration. Velocity and acceleration are most
commonly used when assessing structure borne noise or human comfort issues respectively. Vibration amplitude may be
quantified as a peak value, or as a root mean squared (rms) value.
