University of Southampton awarded a contract to IAC Acoustic Company UK Limited for the refurbishment of its Large Anechoic Chamber, originally built in 1968 and last refurbished in the mid-1990s.

The project involves removing existing fibreglass wedges and replacing them with new fire-retardant acoustic wedges, as well as replacing the metal grid floor with a lightweight GRP floor capable of supporting a spread load of at least 500 kg.

The refurbished chamber must comply with ISO 3745 and ISO 26101, achieve a cut-off frequency of 80Hz or below, and include refurbished seals on all chamber openings.

A full commissioning report is required.

The contract value is £273,765.
