Most outdoor events and activities take place for only a few days. However, they still need ample protection and security measures. This is not only because they can be barged by unwanted guests, but also because they can be intrusive when it comes to the sound they emit. Outdoor gatherings can be very noisy. While they are usually held in venues away from residences or commercial complexes, they still can be distracting to neighbourhoods nearby. The noise they make, however, can be mitigated easily since they are the source of sound. This can be addressed by using portable sound barriers.
Portable sound barriers in Singapore are becoming common because of the wide range of activities being held within the reach of each other. There are instances when multiple events take place within the same venue, and yet the sound they make, no matter how loud, do not mingle with each other. Portable sound barriers help reduce the dispersal of sound, and keep them within a specific area only.
How do you choose sound barriers, anyway? Here are some tips to follow:
1. Gauge the area.
The first thing to do when using a portable sound barrier is to study the area in which it will be used. Sure, you are working with a wide-open ground, but which part of the open ground needs sound control?
There are instances where you don’t have to cover the entire venue, but only a part of it. A good example for this is during concerts; you don’t have to surround the entire venue with a sound barrier, but just the sections where annoying sounds are generated, such as machinery and equipment. The concert may have to use a power generator and other machines, and their buzzing sounds can be distracting. These parts of the venue should then be shielded to prevent their noise from being heard by the audience.
2. Measure the size of the area to be covered.
Once you have identified the area to be covered with a sound barrier, it’s time to measure its dimensions so you know the size of the barrier to get. Sound barriers come in different sizes, but they too can be shaped according to your needs.
Knowing the size of the area also allows contractors of sound barriers in Singapore to give proper quotations. They can provide you with different sound barrier options to use for your activity and corresponding prices. This way, you don’t have to spend a lot on a barrier that you will use only for a short period of time.
3. How long will the activity be?
Short-term activities may last for a few days to a number of years. Hence, sound barriers for concerts are different from sound barriers used in construction sites, and this is what you have to keep in mind.
By knowing the type of activity that you are going to hold at a specific timeframe, you can better choose the portable sound barrier to use, and enjoy its functions to the fullest.
