Acoustics & Vibration
Sound and vibration play a powerful role in shaping how people experience the built environment, often unnoticed. From speech clarity in classrooms to privacy in healthcare spaces and comfort in high-performance workplaces, acoustics directly affect communication, concentration, well-being, and how spaces function and feel. At AEI, our acoustics and vibration specialists combine technical precision with design awareness to create environments that sound and feel intentional, reducing distraction and supporting usability across a wide range of building types.
We work closely with architects, engineers, and project stakeholders as an essential design partner, integrating acoustic performance early in the design process to support architectural intent and overall building performance. Drawing on advanced modeling tools, field testing, value engineering, and building system integration, our team delivers performance-driven solutions that balance aesthetics, budget, environmental context, and regulatory requirements while supporting long-term comfort, resilience, and smooth building operation.
