IMEG provided a vibration and acoustic report for Argonne National Laboratory’s Building 212 electron microscope labs. A study completed by an outside consultant identified the existing chiller and HVAC system serving five electron microscope labs as problematic sources of vibration and noise for the electron microscopes. The levels of vibration and noise in the labs
IMEG provided acoustical engineering services for a sound isolation study for the Kenwood Theater. The plan called for converting 30,000-sf former retail space into a nine-screen movie theater complex. Background noise levels in movie screening rooms must be low enough to provide a suitable environment for their intended purpose. Noise isolation was vital to the
