Notes:
1. If all items of PME to be used on the construction site will be totally screened by a substantial barrier such that none will be visible when viewed from NSRs, a negative 10dB(A) could be applied to the noise assessment.
2. A substantial barrier or enclosure shall be made of a minimum of 10mm thick plywood or 1mm thick steel outer skin and a minimum of 50mm thick sound absorbing lining.
