Monitoring noise and vibration is a crucial aspect of urban planning and development. Graham Parry, a renowned expert in noise and vibration measurement, provides valuable insights into the significance of monitoring and discusses the advancements in technology, the protection of human health, and the lack of national legislation in the UK.
In the video “Vibration Monitoring Education: Insights from Dr. Charles Dowding”, Dr. Charles Dowding emphasizes the importance of enhancing education in vibration monitoring within the construction industry. He identifies three key educational areas: understanding the instruments used, comprehending structural responses, and grasping geological factors.
Tunnel boring may cause disturbances for residents and businesses. However, the acoustic impact of tunnel boring involves other challenges besides measuring and monitoring noise levels.
Why is vibration monitoring in construction work important? As stated by Dr. Charles Dowding, “saying something is not the same thing as measuring it!” Monitoring is required to control vibration activities, ensure project compliance, engage in proper risk management and helps build and maintain good community relations throughout a project.
A well calibrated vibration monitoring system can provide accurate measurements, but how precise is it after a year of rugged field deployment? To perform well and meet local standards, all vibration monitors require regular calibration at least once a year.
