Acoustic Consultants in Ho Chi Minh City

Have a project in Ho Chi Minh City or elsewhere in Vietnam? Tell us about it.
HO CHI MINH CITY CONTEXT

Vietnam’s construction and industrial base is moving quickly. Manufacturing plants, logistics hubs, international schools, marine facilities and new transport infrastructure are being built across the south of the country, and a growing share of these projects is specified to international standards. Acoustic performance is increasingly written into the brief from the outset rather than corrected after handover.

OUR EXPERTISE

Delhom Acoustics was founded in Toulouse in 1995 and has spent more than 30 years on acoustic engineering across Europe, Asia and the Middle East. In Vietnam, that experience translates into delivered work on education, marine, transport and data center projects, carried out with the same technical standards the firm applies internationally and a working knowledge of how local projects are procured and built.

OUR REACH

From Ho Chi Minh City, our team supports projects across the country, including Hanoi, Phu Quoc, Vung Tau and beyond. That reach lets us combine international acoustic engineering with a practical reading of each project’s location, use and regulatory setting.

HO CHI MINH CITY CONTEXT

Vietnam and sound: fast-growing industry, education and infrastructure

Ho Chi Minh City sits at the center of a region whose manufacturing, education, marine and transport sectors are all expanding at once, often with foreign investors and international specifications attached to local sites. Each type of project calls for an acoustic approach suited to its use, its surroundings and the rules that apply to it.

National noise standards

Environmental and community noise in Vietnam is framed by national standards such as QCVN 26:2010/BTNMT. We help project teams read these requirements alongside any additional targets set by investors or certification schemes.

International-standard education facilities

International schools are held to the acoustic comfort levels expected in their home countries: classroom intelligibility, isolation between teaching spaces, controlled reverberation in sports and assembly halls. This is a recurring brief in and around Ho Chi Minh City.

Marine and shipyard acoustics

Vessel interiors and shipyard operations involve noise and vibration constraints that few consultants handle. These projects call for specialized control of structure-borne noise, machinery and crew comfort.

Manufacturing and FDI-driven industry

Foreign direct investment continues to drive new factories and technical facilities, bringing with it industrial noise control at the site boundary and the management of equipment noise for the people working nearby.

Definition

What is an acoustic study ?

An acoustic study is how a specialized engineer evaluates, models and controls sound and vibration in a building or on a site, whether at design stage or as a diagnostic on an existing structure. It translates technical findings into concrete decisions: construction choices, sized solutions, and a clear path to regulatory compliance. Addressing acoustics early avoids costly rework later, from reworked partitions to delayed sign-offs.

01 — Compliance

What is an acoustic study ?

An acoustic study verifies that a project meets the objectives set by applicable regulations (housing, hotels, educational or healthcare facilities) as well as the certifications being targeted, particularly for commercial buildings (LEED, WELL and locally applicable green-building standards). We produce  the supporting documentation required for building permit applications or project handover.

02 — Confort

Provide occupants with optimal acoustic comfort

Good acoustics is felt rather than noticed. You only notice it once it’s missing. A meeting room where you don’t have to repeat yourself. An apartment where you don’t hear your neighbour’s TV. An open-plan office that doesn’t feel like an echo chamber. An auditorium where the back row hears as clearly as the front. These comfort criteria are increasingly built into the specifications of demanding clients.

03 — Performance

Optimize building performance

Building acoustics is one part of a project’s overall performance, alongside thermal comfort and air quality, not separate from them. Addressed early, acoustic solutions get built into the design from the start, shaping material choices and technical specifications from day one rather than correcting them afterward.

Scope of Services

When should you bring in an acoustic consultant in Ho Chi Minh City?

Acoustic needs depend on what is being built, how it will be used and where it sits. These are the situations in which architects, developers and industrial clients working in Ho Chi Minh City and across Vietnam most often call on an acoustic consultant.

International schools and education

From classroom acoustics to sports halls and auditoriums, education projects built to international standards need acoustic design that supports teaching and concentration. Our work on the Australian International School in Ho Chi Minh City and on Chadwick International School reflects how we approach these environments.

Marine engineering and shipyards

Vessel interiors and shipyard sites are a specialized part of our practice, where acoustic and vibration control protects crew comfort and meets the constraints of marine construction: a field that sets Delhom apart from generalist consultants.

Aviation and transport infrastructure

Airport and transport projects raise questions of both environmental noise and the acoustic conditions inside terminal buildings. We assess these constraints project by project, according to location, use and the requirements that apply.

Data centers

As Vietnam builds out its digital infrastructure, data center projects need careful management of equipment noise, environmental impact and the effect on surrounding sites. We support both new facilities and upgrades to existing ones.

Cultural and convention venues

Large event, convention and cultural venues rely on acoustic design to control reverberation, speech intelligibility and sound quality across very different room types under one roof.

Industrial and manufacturing facilities

Factories and technical sites can combine production noise, vibration and the impact of operations on neighboring areas. We handle noise and vibration studies, acoustic modeling, measurement and mitigation, sized to each site’s operating constraints.

Our Method

Our acoustic engineering approach

Every mission follows a structured process, from initial scoping through to construction follow-up, adapted to the nature and stage of the project.

01

Needs analysis

Before any measurement is taken, we scope the project: regulatory and certification requirements, project timeline, and the existing sound environment. This step keeps the rest of the mission focused on what the project actually needs.

02

On-site acoustic measurements

Ambient noise levels, sound insulation between rooms, reverberation time, vibration: our campaigns run on Class 1 instrumentation, to current standards.

03

Modeling and simulation

The data we collect feeds acoustic models, so proposed solutions get tested on paper before anyone touches a wall, and so the technical choices can be justified to the rest of the project team.

04

Technical recommendations

Precise, sized recommendations follow: wall and partition build-ups, required sound reduction indices. tailored to the specific performance targets of each space.

05

Deliverables

A study report, technical notes, noise mapping, tender documentation, and compliance certification : documents ready to hand directly to a permit office or a client.

06

Construction follow-up & assistance

We stay through the construction phase and run the final acoustic checks, so what gets built matches what got designed.

Acoustics and AV: complementary expertise where projects require both

Where a project needs both, we look at the sound environment as a whole. Bringing acoustics and audiovisual design together gives the project team a single partner to coordinate the two, with recommendations shaped around what the space actually needs. Across offices, hospitality, cultural venues, stadiums and airports in Vietnam, we weigh acoustic performance, AV systems and user experience together: the invisible layer that lets people experience a space the way it was meant to be experienced.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Acoustics in Ho Chi Minh City

At what stage of a project should I bring in an acoustic consultant in Vietnam?

As early as possible, ideally at concept or schematic design. Involving an acoustic consultant early keeps solutions integrated into the design rather than added as costly corrections later.

What noise standards apply in Vietnam?

Environmental and community noise is framed by national standards such as QCVN 26:2010/BTNMT. Internationally backed projects and certification schemes may set additional acoustic targets, which we help project teams identify and meet.

What is the difference between an acoustic study and an acoustic diagnostic?

An acoustic study supports the design of a project by setting acoustic objectives and informing technical decisions. An acoustic diagnostic assesses an existing building, space or vessel to pinpoint issues and recommend improvements.

Do you work on marine and shipyard projects?

Yes. Vessel interiors and shipyard operations are a specialized part of our practice, with acoustic and vibration control adapted to the constraints of marine construction.

Do you offer AV Consulting in Vietnam?

Yes. Vietnam is one of the two territories, alongside Dubai, where we are developing AV Consulting: audiovisual systems design as a discipline complementary to acoustics, across offices, hospitality, cultural venues, stadiums and airports. It also helps clarify a common point of confusion, since acoustics and AV are related but distinct disciplines.

How does an initial consultation work?

A first conversation, by phone or video call, lets us understand your project, its constraints and your objectives before we propose a tailored scope of work.
