1 Introduction

                     RoadPro Acoustic was engaged by Knowles Group to assess potential effects of
                     environmental noise onto and emitted by a proposed aged care facility proposed
                     for construction on Goodchap St, Noosaville. The site location is shown in Figure
                     1 and the ground floor layout is shown in Figure 2. Full plans for the proposed
                     development are provided in Appendix A.

2 Noise Criteria

                     2.1       Noosa Plan
                     The site is presently within a detached housing zone, with a community services
                     zone (Noosa Private Hospital) on the opposite side of Goodchap Street (Noosaville
                     Zone Map ZM8).
                     The Desired Environmental Outcomes of the Noosa Plan (Part 3) provides the
                     following statement regarding residential uses:
                     The quality lifestyle sought by residents of Noosa also demands high standards of residential
                     amenity. Factors such as density, noise, accessibility to community services and infrastructure,
                     security, traffic and aesthetics are of significance.

                     Although the above statement relates to reverse-amenity when developing new
                     residential uses, the broad amenity goals are applicable for introducing potential
                     noise sources to an established residential area.

                     2.2       Road Traffic
                     External noise levels are not specified in the Nuisance Code, however for
                     consistency with other residential developments potentially affected by road traffic
                     noise within the Local Government Area and Queensland, the criteria applied are
                     adapted from the Department of Transport and Main Roads Transport Noise
                     Management Code of Practice as follows:
                           •     Private open space meets the following external noise criteria:
                                    o   ≤57 dB(A) L10 (18 hour) free field
                     Note that for facilities such as an aged care facility, it is generally considered that
                     where significant communal open areas that achieve the noise criterion are
                     available for use by residents, it is not necessary to mandate that all private open
                     space achieves the criterion.
                     Internal noise criteria are those in AS 2107 Acoustics – Recommended design
                     sound levels and reverberation times for building interiors for interior noise levels,
                     reproduced in Table 1 for residential buildings.
                     The use is more akin to a private hospital use than residential, therefore internal
                     noise levels for Health Buildings are applicable. Recommended internal noise
                     levels are reproduced in Table 1.
                     Table 1 Internal Noise Levels Extracted from AS 2107 - 2016

                      Type of                         Design sound level range        Design reverberation
                      occupancy/activity              (LAeq,t) range dB               time (T) range, s
                      Ward bedrooms –
                               Single bed             35 to 40                        0.4 – 0.7
                               Double bed             35 to 40                        0.4 – 0.7

                      Dining areas                    40 to 45

                     Where the noise level impacting on a façade is predicted to result in internal noise
                     levels exceeding the range of design sound levels in Table 1, construction
                     categories specified in AS 3671 are applied as follows:
                     Category 1. Standard construction; openings, including open windows and doors may
                     comprise up to 10% of the exposed facade. TNR of approximately 10 dB(A) is expected.

                     Category 2. Standard construction, except for lightweight elements such as fibrous cement
                     or metal cladding or all-glass facades. Windows, doors and other openings must be closed.
                     TNR of approximately 25 dB(A) is expected.
                     Category 3. Special construction, chosen in accordance with Clause 3.4. Windows, doors
                     and other openings must be closed. TNR between 25 and 35 dB(A) is expected.
                     Category 4. TNR greater than 35 dB(A) is required; special acoustic advice should be
                     sought.

3 Measurements

                     Noise measurements were carried out at the site from 28th November 2017 to 1st
                     December 2017 at the location shown in Figure 3.
                     The measurements were carried out using a Rion NL-21 (serial no. 954584)
                     recording “fast” response A-weighted sound levels at 1-hour intervals, with the
                     microphone at a height of approximately 1.5 m. Weather conditions were
                     generally fine and suitable for noise monitoring for the duration of the survey. The
                     instrument was checked for calibration prior to and post-measurement using a
                     94 dB acoustic signal at 1000 Hz, and drift in calibration remained within ±0.5 dB.
                     The site was attended for a 15-minute period on 1st December 2017 to gain a
                     subjective assessment of the acoustic environment and to verify that the sound
                     measurement instrumentation was functioning correctly.
                     Notes from the attended measurements are provided in Table 2, and a summary
                     of the logged data over the week is provided in Table 3 and Table 4. The
                     measurement data is provided in Appendix B.

                     The internal noise criteria are presented as LAeq(1 hour) levels, therefore the
                     difference between the LA10(18 hour) and the LAeq(1 hour) noise levels measured
                     during the daytime/evening and night time periods are applied to predicted LA10(18
                     hour) noise levels. The measured weekday highest LAeq(1 hour) noise levels and their
                     respective differences to the LA10(18 hour) are provided in Table 4.

4 Predicted Noise Levels and Recommendations for Attenuation

                     4.1     Road Traffic Noise
                     The CoRTN algorithm for predicting road traffic noise implemented in the PEN3D
                     software package was used to model road traffic noise levels at the site.
                     Traffic volumes for Goodchap Street for the present year and 10 years post-
                     construction (2028) were based on peak hour traffic counts carried out at the Site
                     in 2015 by austraffic.
                     Traffic volumes are shown in Table 7.
                     Table 7     Road Traffic Volumes on Goodchap Street, Buderim

                                                                   Average

                     Road surfaces are DGA. Average vehicle speed was assumed to be the posted
                     speed limit of 60 kph.
                     The present-day scenario was modelled to verify the logger-measured noise
                     levels. The model-calculated noise level of 63.8 dB LA10(18 hour) was within an
                     acceptable margin of the measured noise level (see Table 3), and is slightly
                     conservative.
                     Road traffic noise levels were calculated for the planning horizon year (2028) at all
                     rooms facing Goodchap St, and results are provided in Appendix C. A screenshot
                     of the model layout is shown in Figure 6.

                     Acoustic barrier fencing is not considered to be appropriate for the site, nor is it
                     particularly necessary given the ample shared spaces inside and at the rear of the
                     building which are amply shielded from road traffic noise.

                     4.2     Internal Noise Levels
                     Calculations of internal noise were carried out using the methodology described in
                     AS 3671 – Acoustics – Road traffic noise intrusion – Building siting and
                     construction. Example calculations are provided in Appendix D.
                     It was found that a maximum Rw 30 is required for glazing facing Goodchap Street
                     on the ground level, while a maximum Rw 31 is required for glazing facing
                     Goodchap Street on the first level. This can be achieved with 6.38 mm laminated
                     glass sliding doors. There is some minor variation in noise levels between different
                     rooms (having lower noise reduction requirements). However, the maximum
                     6.38 mm laminated glass required is somewhat standard, and it is envisaged that
                     adopting this as the standard for the Goodchap St facade would provide ease of
                     construction management.
                     Increased glazing thicknesses can, of course, be used. However, care should be
                     taken to simultaneously address inter-room sound isolation, as very quiet internal
                     environments can make internal noise from other rooms much more audible.
                     The above recommendation is suitable for accommodation rooms, offices and
                     other areas. However, an increased level of noise attenuation may be desirable
                     for the Theatre. It is recommended that minimum 13.76 mm laminated glazing be
                     used on the facades of that room.
                     The facades / rooms requiring the glazing are shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8.

                     4.3       Car Park and Light Vehicle Noise
                     The carpark is underneath the building and not exposed to nearby residences.
                     Given the generally low vehicle numbers / rates of movements that would be
                     expected in an aged care facility, and the main pick up / drop off point is on the
                     Goodchap Street frontage, noise from carparks is not expected to be a cause of
                     nuisance.

                     4.4       Service Vehicles and Area
                     The service vehicle area is cut into the Site, and as such is partially obscured from
                     view from surrounding residences. The landscaped area is higher than the
                     pavement level, which will be effective in reducing most noise from the area.
                     Due to low ambient noise levels, however, it is recommended that the following
                     protocols be adhered to:
                           •     Waste should not be disposed of outside between 6 pm and 7 am, and
                           •     Service vehicles should not attend the site before 7 am or after 6 pm.

                     4.5       Mechanical Plant
                     Mechanical plant specifications are not yet available. However, given the area has
                     relatively low background noise levels, particularly at night-time, it is envisaged
                     that the plant rooms will require significant noise attenuation to achieve the
                     regulatory noise levels under the EPAct 1994. It is likely that a minimum level of
                     treatment would require noise attenuating grilled air inlets, but it is possible that
                     the plant rooms will need to be enclosed at ground level with any air inlet / exhaust
                     requirements satisfied with attenuated ducting to above the roofline. This will need
                     to be comprehensively assessed during the detailed design stage of the project.


5 Conclusion and Summary of Recommendations

                     RoadPro Acoustic was engaged by Knowles Group to assess potential effects of
                     environmental noise onto and emitted by a proposed aged care facility proposed
                     for construction on Goodchap St, Noosaville.
                     Existing road traffic noise levels were measured and used to validate a 3-
                     dimensional road traffic noise model for the site. External road traffic noise levels
                     were calculated, and minimum glazing requirements to satisfy the internal noise
                     levels in AS 2107 were determined in accordance with AS 3671.

                     Noise from carparking activities is not expected to cause a nuisance at nearby
                     residences due to low vehicle turnover and undercover parking.
                     Service vehicles should only attend the Site, and the service (bin) area should be
                     restricted to 7 am to 6 pm due to low ambient noise levels outside of these times.
                     Mechanical plant noise should be assessed in detail during the detailed design
                     stage of the project, as low background noise levels in the area combined with
                     significant plant requirements will make attenuation of those sources critical.
                     Subject to provision of the recommendations in this report, the proposed
                     development is supported with respect to acoustic amenity.
