CASE EXAMPLE: ACOUSTIC CONTROL IN A SENSITIVE INDUSTRIAL CULTURE BUILDING FOR KOSTA BODA

An example of a fascinating project is Kosta Boda, the famous glass industry in Sweden with roots going back to 1742. The factory is today the oldest glass production factory in Sweden, with a strong focus on handicraft techniques. The factory allows visitors to study the special environment where the glass is produced.

The purpose of the project was to map the work environment for glass production and to find suitable noise reduction activities ‒ while not substantially affecting the cultural value of the building. The outcome of the noise model was excellent, leading to lower noise levels and, thus, a better work environment for people working in the building.

DIGITALISATION

Along with urbanisation, sustainable city planning is a growing challenge for city planners. FORCIT Consulting is involved in many projects for new residential areas, where keeping track of vibrations during the project is very important.

After implementation of a digital cloud-based solution, our inspectors can immediately keep track of the vibration measurements and document any damage directly on their mobile device by marking it easily in an illustration on the device. Also, they save a lot of time as they do not need any transport to the office and as documentation is immediately available for both the Forcit project team and the customer. Also reusing material from previous inspections in earlier stages of a project is easy and saves time and money.
