Association of Noise Consultants

The Association of Noise Consultants (ANC) is a UK-based organisation of companies that are engaged in the business of acoustics, noise and vibration consulting. It was established in 1973.[1]

Overview

There is a great range of specialisations within the ANC. Environmental noise consultants carry out measurement, calculation, evaluation and mitigation of noise pollution to fit within current noise regulation and produce an environmental impact assessment often leading to appearance as an expert witness at public inquiries. In building acoustics, sound insulation is tested between dwellings as required by approved document E of the Building Regulations, schools are designed for optimal learning conditions and the acoustic environments of performing arts venues are designed for their specific intended purposes.
