We remain open, providing a full range of noise assessment and building acoustic design services
Whilst a 4am start and 3hr30 drive is not usually something to look forward to, we recently jumped at the chance to do something a little bit different than usual, a noise assessment on a boat used for military training exercises!
Protecting one’s hearing is very important when standing out on deck with a helicopter hovering over, winching new cadets on and off the deck. Indeed hearing health in any workplace is important, and should be regularly assessed in accordance with the Control of Noise Regulations 2005, but especially so under the exceptionally high noise levels from a huge helicopter!
In such a situation, with average levels on our dosimeters registering at 108 – 110 dB LAeq and 135 dB LCpeak, a very high level of hearing protection is required, combining methods by using over ear protectors over the top of in ear plugs.
Thankfully, the workers we were surveying were already well aware of this and doing a good job!
We asked to fire some torpedos but were told ‘maybe next time…’.
