This part of BS 5228 gives recommendations for basic methods of noise control relating to construction sites, including sites where demolition, remediation, ground treatment or related civil engineering works are being carried out, and open sites, where work activities/operations generate significant noise levels, including industry-specific guidance.
The legislative background to noise control is described and recommendations are given regarding procedures for the establishment of effective liaison between developers, site operators and local authorities.
This part of BS 5228 provides guidance concerning methods of predicting and measuring noise and assessing its impact on those exposed to it.
