Foulger Pratt – Physicians Specialist Building (5th Floor Tenant Space)
Foulger Pratt Companies, a family-owned company, is a diverse construction, development, and management organization. They provide base building and interior construction, real estate development, property management and cleaning. Convergent Technologies was asked to provide acoustic testing and measurement services for Foulger Pratt’s Physicians Specialist Building located in Silver Spring, Maryland. The purpose of the project was to determine the existing background noise levels through measurement and offer a comparison to noise levels traditionally found in similar spaces. Recommendations were then made in efforts to improve the acoustic quality of the work environment by reducing the noise levels. The scope of work required testing and measurement, sound isolation design, and HVAC system analysis. Convergent has been contracted by Foulger Pratt twice to provide acoustical consulting, once in 2006 and once in 2009.
