Noise from new construction projects can sometimes disturb nearby residents. To ensure a project does not negatively affect the living environment, noise surveys and noise impact assessments are conducted by reputable organizations like DASM, helping to determine noise levels and recommend effective mitigation measures.

DASM is a pioneering unit with extensive experience in conducting all forms of noise assessment, successfully completing numerous projects across Vietnam.

What does a noise impact assessment include?
The goal of the acoustic service is to predict whether a development project could have a negative impact on nearby residents or workers.
Typically, DASM acoustic experts will:
- Measure the current background noise levels at the project site.
- Simulate the expected noise generated by the project using specialized software.
- Compare the simulation results with background levels to assess impact.
- If vibration is a potential concern, perform a basic vibration survey and calculate vibration transmission.
Consulting with DASM experts early in the design phase helps identify potential noise issues and apply effective noise mitigation measures using appropriate soundproofing and sound absorption materials, saving time and costs.

What happens if the project generates noise disturbance?
Noise impact assessment determines the amount of noise generated and its potential negative effect on nearby residents.
Noise generation does not necessarily indicate a problem, even if nearby residents can hear it.
In cases where a project may have a negative impact, DASM acoustic experts will propose noise and vibration control solutions, ensuring safety and cost-effectiveness.
Projects that require noise assessment
Some projects commonly requiring noise assessment include:
- Factories, industrial zones, and shopping centers
- Restaurants and eateries
- Roads and major traffic lanes
- Bars, clubs, pubs, karaoke venues
- Gyms and fitness centers
- Schools and community buildings
- Large-scale projects that require comprehensive environmental assessment
