The Technician is required to recommend and verify the efficacy of sound insulation improvements.\nSchedules and conducts appointments in homes, conducts acoustical tests, downloads and analyzes collected noise data, prepares electronic test reports, and performs research at both Chicago O’Hare and Midway Airport locations.\nWorks on an individual basis, and in conjunction with other acoustical technicians, following established procedures on routine work but may require detailed instructions on new assignments. Assignments are made by the Manager of Acoustics to whom this role reports, but work is carried out independently.\nKey Responsibilities:\nWindshield Surveys:\nPerforms a visual evaluation of the exterior of potentially eligible single-family homes from the public right-of-way observing and documenting certain acoustically significant physical characteristics of the home on a survey form and then records that data in a shared spreadsheet.\nAnalyzes the collected data for all homes seeking to categorize them based on common physical characteristics indicating that all homes in a specific category would have similar noise reduction properties. \nIdentifies a representative sampling of each housing category to receive acoustical testing.\nPreliminary Property Surveys:\nPerforms an in-home visual evaluation of the interior layout of each dwelling unit in multi-family buildings for the purpose of grouping all dwelling units with the same number of bedrooms and similar physical characteristics and then records that data in a shared spreadsheet.\nAnalyzes the collected data for all dwelling units in a building to determine how many floorplan types exist as well as any variations to those floorplans.\nIdentifies a representative sampling of each floorplan type and variation to receive acoustical testing.\nAcoustical Testing:\nContacts property owners to schedule eligibility acoustical tests (pre-construction) and post-construction acoustical tests.\nCalibrates noise monitoring equipment notifying the Manager of Acoustics of any malfunctions or repair needs.\nWorks independently and as a part of a team to perform loudspeaker (loudspeaker-generated noise source) acoustical tests according to written procedures documenting pre-construction and post-construction noise levels inside and outside of homes.\nDownloads and analyzes collected noise data to determine pre-construction and post-construction Noise Level Reduction (NLR) values.\nUses results of acoustical testing to confirm the eligibility of homes that apply to receive sound insulation. \nCompares pre-construction and post-construction NLR values to verify whether or not the program noise reduction goals have been achieved.\nPrepares and submits an electronic report for each home tested to the Manager of Acoustics for review.\nAssists the Manager of Acoustics with research and field work relating to acoustical test procedure and methodology improvements.\nHome Inventory (if necessary):\nConducts in-home meetings with property owners describing each available treatment package.\nPrescribes acoustical improvements to homes following the established treatment package for products selected by the homeowner as well as established program procedures. Also recommends additional acoustical improvements not included in the established treatment package as necessary if a lack of treatment would impede the Program’s ability to meet noise reduction goals.\nTakes detailed measurements of homes and completes a plan view sketch of each property documenting building layout, exterior building materials, room sizes and finishes, heating type and location, existing door and window locations and sizes, and electrical panel location.\nWhen HVAC modifications are required, record the manufacturer, input (BTU), output (BTU), age, model number, and ignition type of HVAC equipment, as well as documenting the existing locations of HVAC supplies and returns on forced air systems. Also, document the electrical panel type, location, amperage, installation method, and number of open spaces.\nTakes exterior photos of homes.\nSubmits preliminary drawings, homeowner signoffs, digital pictures, and electronic copies of the construction modification documents to the Manager of Acoustics for review.\nField measurements:\nAssists the Project Manager as needed with any questions relating to the prescribed acoustical treatments.\nRe-confirms that all acoustical products have been assigned the correct STC value and that the acoustical perimeter has been defined correctly.\nQualifications/Requirements:\nBachelor’s degree in Acoustics or related field, or equivalent combination of education and training.\nMust have own car and insurance and ability to drive up to 300 miles per month (mileage is reimbursed).\nAbility to use a computer, the Internet, project scheduling, word processing, spreadsheet, and email software.\nCompensation Range\n$33.00/hour-$37.00/hour\nWhat’s In It For You:\nCompany-paid life and disability insurance\nOptional benefits like pet insurance, legal, and supplemental health plans\n401(k) with day-one eligibility.
