Ensuring Compliance with UK Regulations for Overheating Prevention

At AESG, we provide comprehensive Overheating Assessments in line with Approved Document O, the UK’s building regulation designed to mitigate overheating in new residential buildings. Our expert team ensures that your project adheres to the latest standards, safeguarding occupant comfort while ensuring compliance with planning and environmental requirements.

With our understanding of UK building regulations and thermal performance standards, we help developers, architects, and planners design buildings that reduce the risk of overheating, protecting occupants’ well-being and aligning with environmental goals.

Key Services

Our environmental noise impact assessments ensure compliance with relevant UK regulations, including those set by local planning authorities. We assess and model noise levels to help minimise environmental impact and secure planning approval for your project.

Acoustic design is a critical consideration in master planning large-scale developments. We collaborate with master planners from the outset to integrate effective noise mitigation measures, embedding acoustics within the wider design strategy to enhance the living and working environment.

In line with the UK’s Approved Document O, we assess buildings for overheating risks, ensuring that acoustic factors are considered alongside thermal comfort and ventilation strategies to improve occupant well-being.

Our comprehensive site noise and vibration surveys provide an accurate assessment of existing conditions. We use precise measurements to inform acoustic design decisions and ensure compliance with relevant standards, including BS 8233 and BS 4142.

We provide expert supervision during the construction phase to ensure that acoustic designs are correctly implemented. By working closely with contractors, we make certain that noise and vibration control measures are properly integrated, maintaining the project’s intended acoustic performance.

Our independent peer reviews of acoustic designs offer valuable feedback to optimise performance. We evaluate proposed acoustic solutions against project goals and UK regulatory requirements, ensuring the highest quality outcomes.

Using state-of-the-art noise modelling software, we predict and analyse noise propagation to identify potential issues before they arise. This proactive approach allows us to mitigate noise impact early in the design process, ensuring a high standard of acoustic comfort.
