The role Unwanted noise from neighbors can be an annoyance and the building acoustics team within the Construction Research Centre at the NRC has for decades been publishing guides for reducing neighbor noise through the use of models to predict how a building will sound to its residents before the building is even built. By using the models, problems can be avoided at the design stage and compliance with the acoustic requirements in building codes can be demonstrated. Many of the models are empirical and require measurement data from the state-of-the-art acoustic laboratories at the NRC. The measurements include using accelerometers and electrodynamic shakers to quantify the structure-borne noise transmitted through building elements and the junctions between them. The measurements are made in dedicated flanking facilities and using full scale mock-up junctions of mass timber elements. There are less than a handful of labs or experts in the world who make these measurements and the acoustics team is searching for a postdoc to work as part of the team to learn how to make the measurements and to analyze the data to add to the prediction models. This is a very exciting area of research with measurement data collected today affecting how the measurements will be made in the future when ISO standards are revised. The successful candidate will have the potential to make an impact on the field by applying what they and the team members will lean in the next two years. The position may include working in the laboratory to make the vibration measurements with teammates or working by oneself. At other times, there will be a focus on the analysis of the measured data. While the focus of the position will be on the vibration measurements, the successful candidate will also be involved with other measurements such as transmission loss so that the candidate has a well rounded experience. Education PhD in a relevant field of engineering such as acoustic, civil or mechanical. Experience with experimental design and analysis including data collection and analysis. Measurement experience using accelerometers would be particularly useful. Experience with building acoustic measurements (for example: transmission loss, sound power, sound intensity) would be an asset. Experience working as a member of the research team as well as working independently.
