Laboratory Building Acoustics
The ift Laboratory for Building Acoustics in Stephanskirchen has gained the maximum level of recognition among experts thanks to several years of experience. The laboratory has all the test benches necessary and the expert knowledge to analyse the significant issues pertaining to building acoustics under laboratory test conditions. Comprehensive and intelligently conceived and designed test facilities enable tests to be conducted and technical expertise and specialist opinions to be formulated expeditiously and flexibly.
Our experts are pleased to conduct even measurements on real objects in the course of support for construction from the quality assurance perspective or in case of an expert opinion required.
