Building Regulations Part E


Acoustics is important in buildings, even the houses we live in. Compliance with Part E of the Building Regulations is a requirement for any development and we are frequently called upon to advise and explain to contractors and architects how to achieve compliance. Flanking noise transmission paths are a recurring problem, frequently compromising the overall performance of the element. This can lead to failure to meet the requirement of the Building Regulations Part E. Remedial action is inevitably costly and to avoid such costs the advice of acoustics consultants should be sought at the design and construction stages.
