Acoustical Expert Witness
The role of the acoustical expert witness in construction
litigation cases for single and/or multi-family dwellings are to
investigate a number of issues, which are commonly alleged by the
home owner and/or home owner's association and their counsels.
Typically, these issues include:
1. Noise from the plumbing system; 2. Noise from
the HVAC system; 3. Airborne noise via party walls; 4.
Airborne noise via floor ceiling assemblies; 5. Structure
borne noise via floor ceiling assemblies;
These issues are not readily covered by the
architectural, plumbing, or mechanical experts retained on construction litigation
cases, who may lack a comprehensive understanding of the physical
principals involved, the relevant codes or standards of care and the
most practical solutions, for such issues.
Our acoustical experts are well
qualified to provide expert testimony in the field of acoustics. Our
acoustical expert witness team members have degrees in Acoustics from
the world-renowned Institute of Sound and Vibration Research at the
University of Southampton in England. To supplement this educational
qualification, both of our acoustical experts have at least ten
years design experience, on a wide variety of projects in Europe,
Asia and the United States.
We are team players and have the
communication skills necessary to deal with other experts,
construction staff and legal counsel. Our office is well supported
to enable our principals to perform acoustical tests and to use
computerized analysis and data reduction.
We
provide practical,
responsive and service-oriented consulting. We are currently
working on legal cases in both California and Nevada and have
previously provided witness expert testimony in England. We appreciate
that our involvement is more than just acoustical testing, we
understand the necessity of full integration with the client's
litigation team.
