INTRODUCTION
This report presents an acoustic assessment to accompany the development application of the
proposed residential apartment development located at 18-22 Sturdee Pde, 27-29 Pacific Pde, Dee
Why.
In this report we have:

Identified environmental noise sources (mainly traffic noise) which may have impact on
the site and recommended acoustic treatments to ensure a reasonable level of amenity is
achieved for future occupants.

Setup criteria for environmental noise emissions from the operation of the development
(mechanical plant items and carpark)

Conduct initial noise emission assessment for the proposed carpark.
External noise impacts onto the site have been assessed in accordance with Warringah Council
requirements, NSW State Environment Planning Policy Infrastructure (2007) and Australian
Standard 2107.
Mechanical plant noise emission criteria have been determined in accordance with NSW EPA
Industrial Noise Policy.
The assessment is based on the architectural drawings provided by Marchese Partners dated
August 2013.

SITE DESCRIPTION
The proposed development includes two residential apartment buildings, each building contains 7
storeys of residential apartments.
The site is bounded by Sturdee Parade to the south and Pacific Parade to the north. Both roads
carry low to medium amount of traffic. To the east of the site are existing residential apartment
buildings, to the west is Dee Why Grand which has commercial tenants on lower levels and
residential apartments on higher levels.

NOISE DESCRIPTORS
Traffic noise constantly varies in level, due to fluctuations in traffic speed, vehicle types, road
conditions and traffic densities. Accordingly, it is not possible to accurately determine prevailing
traffic noise conditions by measuring a single, instantaneous noise level. To accurately determine
the effects of traffic noise a 15-20 minute measurement interval is utilised. Over this period, noise
levels are monitored on a continuous basis and statistical and integrating techniques are used to
determine noise description parameters. These parameters are used to measure how much
annoyance would be caused by a particular noise source.
In the case of environmental noise three principle measurement parameters are used, namely L10,
L90 and Leq.
The L10 and L90 measurement parameters are statistical levels that represent the average
maximum and average minimum noise levels respectively, over the measurement interval.
The L10 parameter is commonly used to measure noise produced by a particular intrusive noise
source since it represents the average of the loudest noise levels produced by the source.
Conversely, the L90 level (which is commonly referred to as the background noise level) represents
the noise level heard in the quieter periods during a measurement interval. The L90 parameter is
used to set the allowable noise level for new, potentially intrusive noise sources since the
disturbance caused by the new source will depend on how audible it is above the pre-existing
noise environment, particularly during quiet periods, as represented by the L90 level.
The Leq parameter represents the average noise energy during a measurement period. This
parameter is derived by integrating the noise levels measured over the measurement period. Leq is
important in the assessment of traffic noise impact as it closely corresponds with human
perception of a changing noise environment; such is the character of traffic noise.
Current practice favours the Leq parameter as a means of measuring traffic noise, whereas the L10
parameter has been used in the past and is still incorporated in some codes. For the reasons
outlined above, the L90 parameter is not used to assess traffic noise intrusion.

EXTERNAL NOISE INTRUSION ASSESSMENT
The main environmental noise sources on site are from the traffic on Sturdee Parade and Pacific
Parade.
4.1 PROJECT CRITERIA
Warringah Council does not specify any requirement for internal noise levels for residential
development. Therefore, the NSW State Environmental Planning Policy Infrastructure (2007) and
Australian Standard 2107:2000 will be used to determine the internal noise criteria.
4.1.1
State Environmental Planning Policy
The NSW Department of Planning’s policy, Development Near Rail Corridors And Busy Roads –
Interim Guideline, sets out internal noise level criteria adapted from the State Environmental
Planning Policy (Infrastructure) 2007 (the ‘Infrastructure SEPP’) for developments with the
potential to be impacted by traffic or rail noise and vibration.
The Infrastructure SEPP defines busy roads that are subject to an acoustic assessment as:
“Clause 102: development for any of the following purposes that is on land in or adjacent to a
road corridor for a freeway, a tollway or a transit way or any other road with an annual average
daily traffic volume of more than 40,000 vehicles (based on the traffic volume data available on
the website of the RTA) and that the consent authority considers is likely to be adversely affected
by road noise or vibration:




building for residential use
a place of public worship
a hospital
an educational establishment or childcare.”
The Infrastructure SEPP sets out the following criteria for internal noise levels from airborne traffic
noise:
“For Clauses 87 (Rail) and 102 (Road):
“If the development is for the purpose of a building for residential use, the consent
authority must be satisfied that appropriate measures will be taken to ensure that the
following LAeq levels are not exceeded:
in any bedroom in the building : 35dB(A) at any time 10pm–7am
anywhere else in the building (other than a garage, kitchen, bathroom or hallway): 40dB(A)
at any time.”
Internal requirements are for residential spaces and are measured internally with windows closed.

4.1.2
Australian Standard 2107:2000
Australian Standard 2107:2000 “Recommended design sound level and reverberation times for
building interiors” also specifies the recommended internal noise levels for residential receivers,

TRAFFIC NOISE MEASUREMENTS
Traffic noise measurements were conducted using both unattended long-term noise monitor and
attended measurements. Measurements were performed generally in accordance with the
Australian Standard AS1055 – “Description and measurement of environmental noise – General
Procedures”.
4.2.1 Measurement Location
The long-term unattended noise monitor was setup near the southern boundary of the site,
approximately 5m from the Sturdee Parade. The monitor had an unrestricted view of the road.
Supplementary attended measurements were taken along Sturdee Parade and Pacific Highway, as
indicated in Figure 1.
4.2.2 Measurement Period
The long-term monitoring was conducted from 6th September 2013 to 12th September 2013.
The attended measurement were taken on the 5th September 2013 between 4pm and 5pm.
4.2.3 Measurement Equipment
The long term monitoring was conducted using an Acoustic Research Laboratories Pty Ltd noise
logger. The logger was set to A-weighted fast response and was programmed to store 15-minute
statistical noise levels throughout the monitoring period. The monitor was calibrated at the start
and end of the monitoring period using a Rion NC-73 calibrator. No significant drift was noted.
Attended measurements were undertaken using a Norsonic 140 sound level analyser, set to Aweighted fast response. The sound level analyser was calibrated before and after the
measurements, no significant drift was noted.
4.2.4 Measurement Results
The traffic noise levels listed in Table 2 were determined based on the logging data and manned
measurements. In determination of acoustic treatments, the measured level is adjusted for
distance and orientation.

4.3
EVALUATION OF NOISE INTRUSION
Internal noise levels will primarily be as a result of noise transfer through the windows and doors
and roof, as these are relatively light building elements that offer less resistance to the
transmission of sound.
The predicted noise levels through the windows, doors and roof are discussed below. The
predicted noise levels have been based on the measured level and spectral characteristics of the
external noise, the area of building elements exposed to aircraft, traffic and train noise, the
absorption characteristics of the rooms and the noise reduction performance of the building
elements.
Calculations were performed taking into account the orientation of windows, barrier effects
(where applicable), the total area of glazing, facade transmission loss and the likely room sound
absorption characteristics. In this way the likely interior noise levels can be predicted.
4.3.1
Recommended Glazing
The recommended glazing assemblies are indicated in Table 3 below. The glazing thicknesses
recommended are those needed to satisfy acoustic requirements and do not take into account
other requirements such as structural, safety or other considerations. These additional
considerations may require the glazing thickness to be increased beyond the acoustic
requirement.

In addition to complying with the minimum scheduled glazing thickness, the STC/Rw rating of the
glazing fitted into operable frames and fixed into the building opening should not be lower than
the values listed in the Table 4 below.
Where nominated, this will require the use of acoustic seals equal to Schlegel Q-lon series
(acoustic bulb seal) around the full perimeter of operable frames. The frame will need to be sealed
into the building opening using a flexible 100% polyurethane sealant equal to Bostik Seal N’ Flex.
Note that mohair seals and/or mohair/plastic fin combination seals in windows and doors are not
acceptable where acoustic seals are required.

It is recommended that only window systems have test results indicating compliance with the
required ratings obtained in a certified laboratory be used where windows with acoustic seals
have been recommended.

Roof/Ceiling Construction
The roof is proposed to be constructed of concrete slab. This is acoustically satisfactory does not
require any upgrades.
4.3.3
External Walls
External walls of masonry construction are acoustically satisfactory and do not require any
upgrade.
4.3.4 Mechanical Ventilation
It is recommended by NSW Road Noise Policy that alternative outside air source be installed to
units that internal noise levels cannot be achieved with windows open. However, this is not a
mandatory requirement and the following recommendations are optional.
In this project, units with windows not facing Sturdee Parade or Pacific Parade can be open and
still achieve the required internal noise levels. No mechanical ventilation is required.
However, in case any mechanical ventilation system that may be installed should be designed such
that the acoustic performance of the recommended constructions (presented above) are not
reduced by any duct or pipe penetrating the wall/ceiling/roof. Noise emitted to the property
boundaries by any ventilation system shall comply with EPA and Council requirements.

NOISE EMISSION ASSESSMENT
The main noise sources from the development will be those from mechanical plant serving the site
and the tenants using the proposed underground carpark.
Detailed mechanical equipment selection and layouts are not available at this stage. The external
noise emission criteria are set up in this section of the report to ensure that the acoustic amenity
of nearby residents is not adversely affected.
The potentially affected residential receivers are the apartment buildings adjacent to the site to
east and west.

Warringah Council DCP
NSW EPA Industrial Noise Policy
Protection of the Environmental Operation Act Regulation 2000
5.2.1 Warringah Council DCP
Warringah Council DCP has the following control over noise emission.
“Part D Design
D3 Noise
Requirements
1. Noise from combined operation of all mechanical plant and equipment must not generate noise
levels that exceed the ambient background noise by more than 5dB(A) when measured in
accordance with the NSW Industrial Noise Policy at the receiving boundary of residential and other
noise sensitive land uses.”

5.2.2
EPA Industrial Noise Policy
The EPA Industrial Noise Policy, has two criteria which need to be satisfied namely Intrusiveness
and Amenity.
The EPA Industrial Noise Policy sets out acceptable noise levels for various localities. Table 2.1 on
page 16 of the policy indicates 4 categories to distinguish different residential areas. They are
rural, suburban, urban and urban/industrial interface. Under the policy the nearest residence
would be assessed against the urban criteria.
Noise levels are to be assessed at the property boundary or nearby dwelling, or at the balcony or
façade of an apartment.
5.2.2.1 Intrusiveness Criterion
The guideline is intended to limit the audibility of noise emissions at residential receivers and
requires that noise emissions measured using the Leq descriptor not exceed the background noise
level by more than 5dB(A). Where applicable, the intrusive noise level should be penalised
(increased) to account for any annoying characteristics such as tonality.
Background noise levels adopted are presented in Section 4.1. Noise emissions from the site
should comply with the noise levels presented below when measured at nearby property
boundary.
5.2.2.2
Amenity Criterion
The guideline is intended to limit the absolute noise level from all noise sources to a level that is
consistent with the general environment.
The EPA’s Industrial noise policy sets out acceptable noise levels for various localities. Table 2.1 on
page 16 of the policy indicates 4 categories to distinguish different residential areas. They are
rural, suburban, urban and urban/industrial interface. This site is categorised by the residential
receivers as suburban.
For the purposes of this condition:



Day is defined as the period from 7am to 6pm Monday to Saturday and 8am to 6pm
Sundays and Public Holidays;
Evening is defined as the period from 6pm to 10pm.
Night is defined as the period from 10pm to 7am Monday to Saturday and 10pm to 8am
Sunday and public holidays.

Sleep Arousal
To minimise the potential for sleep arousal the L1 (1 minute) noise level of any specific noise source
does not exceed the background noise level (L90) by more than 15 dB(A) outside a resident’s
bedroom window between the hours of 10pm and 7am.
The L1 noise level is the level exceeded for 1 per cent of the time and approximates the typical
maximum noise level from a particular source. Where the typical repeatable existing L1 levels
exceed the above requirement then the existing L1 levels form the basis for, sleep disturbance
criteria.
5.2.3
Protection of the Environmental Operation Act Regulation
Protection of the Environmental Operations regulation limits the noise levels associated within the
operation of domestic air conditioning criteria during night time periods which is presented below:
Protection of the Environmental Operations (Noise Control) Regulation 2000-Sect 52
52
Air Conditioners
(1) A person must not cause or permit an air conditioner to be used on residential premises in such
a manner that it emits noise that can be heard within a habitable room in any other residential
premises (regardless of weather any door or window to that room is open):
(a) before 8 am or after 10 pm on any Saturday, Sunday or public holiday, or
(b) before 7 am or after 10 pm on any other day.
5.2.4
Noise Emission Objectives
Based on the requirements stated in the sections above, Table 7 provides a summary of the
assessment criteria applicable to the future residential development at the project site. The
assessment criteria are also based on the ambient noise monitoring conducted at the site.

CARPARK NOISE ASSESSMENT
The proposed carpark includes three level of basement parking levels, contains a total of 300
parking spaces, 162 spaces for the Sturdee Parade building and 138 spaces for Pacific Parade.
There are separate entrances for each building, however, both entrances for the carpark are near
the eastern boundary of the site, potential have the most impact of the residential apartment to
the east.
The vehicle noise from the proposed carpark has been predicted to the nearest receivers. The
prediction is based on the assumptions below:



We assume that peak hour will occur during the day time and during peak hours, the
usage of the carpark will be approximately 50% of its capacity.
During night time, the carpark will be less frequently used, we assume a maximum usage
of 10% of the capacity.
Vehicles move at 10km/hour speed with typical sound power level 85 dB(A) (noise data
from other projects conducted by this office).
Predicted noise levels are presented below:

MECHANICAL PLANT
Detailed plant selection has not been undertaken at this stage, as plant selections have not been
determined. Detailed acoustic review should be undertaken at CC stage to determine acoustic
treatments to control noise emissions to satisfactory levels. Satisfactory levels will be achievable
through appropriate plant selection and location and, if necessary, standard acoustic treatments
such as duct lining, acoustic silencers and enclosures.
Noise emissions from all services plant to the closest residential receiver should comply with the
noise emission criteria in Section 5.2.
