Acoustics for Education

Building Bulletin 93 provides a regulatory framework for the acoustic design of schools in support of Part E of the Building Regulations.

Compliance with The Building Regulations is demonstrated by submitting specific details to the relevant Building Control Body, the majority of which are contained within a specialist report from an acoustic consultant. It is now common practice that BB93 compliance testing is also contained within a school’s building contract to confirm that the construction achieves its design intent. HRS offer a complete design and testing provision in support of achieving compliance with BB93. Whatever the project, be it a school, college or university HRS can provide a sound solution.
