Adrian James Acoustics was one of the first companies in the UK to be registered under the ANC Scheme. All of our testers are also consultants with the expertise to locate faults on site and to advise on remedial design in the event of tests failing, and are inspectors or deputy inspectors under the Robust Details scheme. Adrian is also an ANC examiner and co-Chairman of the Registration Committee which administers the ANC Scheme.
We also provide a design service, advising architects and builders on constructions to comply with the Regulations, and on the more stringent requirements for credits under the Code for Sustainable Homes. If it would be more economical for you to use Robust Details, we will tell you rather than generate work (and fees) for ourselves through pre-completion testing.
Non-residential buildings
Of course we can also design and measure sound insulation in non-residential buildings. In general these tests tend to require more powerful sources and more demanding measurement procedures than tests between dwellings, as well as more expertise on the part of the testers. We have tested in schools, universities, offices, hotels, concert halls, churches, theatres, cinemas and studios for recording and broadcasting.
