Sound-in-air Measurement Club

The Sound-in-air Measurement Club (formerly known as Acoustical Standards Users' Group) is concerned with methods of calibrating, testing and using acoustical instruments, including information on development of International specification Standards for acoustical instruments.

There are one-day club meetings on a regular basis (at least once every three years) for customers and prospective customers. The club brings together users of NPL services, such as consultants, manufacturers, small companies and health service representatives. The meetings provide an opportunity for customers to learn more about the measurement services, current research and developments in their area, to look at our facilities and to give the opportunity for discussion and feedback from our customers.

Club membership is free; for more information or to join, contact Susan Dowson
