This provides GEHL with the capability to test their equipment related to noise, structural integrity, power Project Duration: 14 months capability, and operation in cold and hot weather. Key Performance Features: The sound room is designed for a 63 Hz • Reused existing 73,000 sq. ft. manufacturing 1/3-octaveband center frequency. The background facility and retrofit to house 70 engineering noise level for the room when there is no activity in offices and testing facility. the space is NC 20. The air handling unit with supply • and return air plenums is designed to deliver air to the hemi-anechoic room while not exceeding a NC engineering office space. • 25 noise level. Additionally, the room is designed to exhaust extraction are running is NC 45. Modified building skin to match the headquarters. Installed new mechanical have an exhaust extraction system. The designed performance of the room when the HVAC and the Approximately 24,000 sq. ft. made into building and testing systems. • Built a testing facility which includes a hemi-anechoic chamber, climate test room, dynamometer test room, setup areas, component test areas, mechanical space, and a hydraulic test lab.
