Online Learning
Environmental Noise and Planning
The presentation looks at the adverse effects of environmental noise and how this is addressed in environmental noise policy and regulation. It goes on to cover key guidance on noise with regards to planning of development, guidance on sound insulation requirements and the professional practice guidelines on noise and planning. It covers the scope and practice of industrial and commercial noise regulation and the principles of noise surveys for planning purposes.

Principles of Room Acoustics
The presentation looks at the fundamentals of building acoustics, including the key aspects of what affects the sound quality inside an enclosed space. This aims to give attendees a good understanding of core parameters of rooms acoustics, the acoustic challenges in rooms for different purposes and outline approaches to mitigate poor acoustic performance.

Fundamentals of Sound Insulation
The presentation looks at the fundamentals of sound insulation and sound transmission, which is one of the core aspects covered by the building regulations, and which also contributes to other certification schemes such as BREEAM. It first examines the principles of sound absorption, reflection and transmission, considers the building regulations and in what situations these cover sound insulation, and then examines the principles of sound transmission and sound insulation in different settings, including structurally transmitted and airborne sound. It concludes by looking at how sound insulation performance can be improved through good design.

Sustainability in Acoustic Design
The presentation looks at the concepts of sustainability in acoustic design. Starting with the principles of sustainability and the UN and RIBA sustainability goals, it examines the areas of sustainability most impacted by acoustic design and products, and then examines the most commonly used acoustic products and sustainable alternatives for both sound absorption and sound insulation purposes.

Causes of Acoustic Failure
This CPD looks at the fundamentals of acoustic failure - the failure to achieve acoustic design or regulatory parameters. It examines the key types of acoustic failure - failures in planning, in deign or in workmanship, and then goes on to look at examples of different types of acoustic failure. The main focus is on failure in sound insulation performance as this is the primary regulatory failure at pre-completion testing or commissioning.
