Noise modelling and prediction assessments, helping project teams understand how construction activities may affect nearby communities and sensitive receptors.
Sixense provides comprehensive support for construction projects by carrying out detailed noise modelling and prediction assessments, helping project teams understand how construction activities may affect nearby communities and sensitive receptors. Using specialist acoustic modelling software, our experts simulate the noise generated by plant, machinery, and site operations, taking into account topography, building layouts, and working methodologies. This allows us to predict noise levels at different locations and stages of the project, supporting informed decision-making before work begins.
These predictive assessments are valuable for identifying where noise risks are highest and where mitigation measures may be required. Sixense works collaboratively with project designers, planners, and contractors to explore practical solutions, such as selecting quieter equipment, optimising site layout, installing acoustic screens, or adjusting work sequences and timings. By planning ahead, we help reduce the likelihood of noise complaints, programme delays, and costly rework. Our models can also be updated as construction progresses, ensuring that noise management strategies remain effective throughout the project lifecycle.
Alongside prediction and modelling, Sixense can integrate these assessments into planning submissions, Construction Noise Management Plans, and stakeholder communication materials. We present complex acoustic data in clear, visual formats—such as noise contour maps and scenario comparisons—making it easier for clients, regulators, and community stakeholders to understand expected impacts and mitigation benefits. With Sixense, you gain not only technical accuracy, but also guidance that is practical, transparent, and aligned with successful project delivery.
