We are very aware of both the successes and issues in the property and construction sector, particularly the looming skills gap, which was revealed in our recent report with KPMG – Skills to Build. As London’s most representative business organisation, with members large and small, we have a policy agenda underpinned by research reports, quarterly surveys and member committees and housing, infrastructure, land supply and building in the capital are an important part of that agenda.” In addition to the LCCI, the Royal Institute of British


Architects (RIBA), Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and Chartered Association of Building Engineers (CABE) are supporting London Build 2015 as lead event partners, providing fantastic support as well as getting involved in the conference, workshops and awards.

Reverberation noise is especially common in a building where there are hard surfaces. Sound waves bounce and reverberate against hard walls, floors and ceilings creating noisy environments. The solu- tion is to add absorption to the areas that have rever- beration noise issues. Hush Acoustics Absorber Panels for ceilings and walls will help to resolve the problem.
