Client: Renaker Build Ltd
Main Contractor: Renaker Build Ltd
Acoustic Consultant: Fisher Acoustics
Architect: Simpson Haugh

Project Objective
Reaching 64-storeys and comprising 1,500 stylish apartments, exclusive penthouses and luxury leisure facilities, Manchester’s Owen Street development is one of the city’s most high profile residential-led developments. But how would the planned integration of health and fitness facilities within the complex impact on the tranquillity of residents?

TVS Acoustics was approached by Fisher Acoustics and Renaker Build to assess the impact of the plan and to recommend a specialist acoustic floor build-up that would meet stringent acoustic criteria to protect residents and leisure users from any unwanted transmitted noise. The approved solution from TVS included installation of a specialist TVS RESi Dry Floating Floor System across the two floors incorporating the High Intensity Interval Training facilities and Yoga studios. Additionally, it decoupled all the rooms from each other, preventing any noise transfer between them and any residential apartments in close proximity.
