Blower Door Test

A diagnostic test that measures the airtightness of a building. A calibrated fan is used to depressurise or pressurise the building, and the resulting airflow is measured to determine the air leakage rate.

Speech Intelligibility

Speech intelligibility refers to the degree to which spoken words are clear and understandable. It plays a crucial role in effective communication and is influenced by various factors, including acoustics, pronunciation, and background noise.

Noise Criteria (NC)

Noise Criteria (NC) curves are a standard for assessing indoor noise levels and ensuring acoustic comfort. Discover how NC ratings are determined, their role in building design, and their impact on occupant well-being.

Building Pressurisation Test

The Building Pressurisation Test evaluates airtightness and pressure differentials within a building, providing insights into air leakage and overall building performance. Explore its significance in energy efficiency assessments and indoor air quality evaluations.

Approved Document D

Stay compliant with ventilation and indoor air quality regulations outlined in Approved Document D. Guidelines for building design, construction, and effective ventilation systems to ensure a healthy indoor environment.
