Regulatory measurements & diagnostics in Béziers.

A sub-prefecture of the Hérault engaged in a programme to reclaim its old town centre, Béziers concentrates heavy renovation projects where the existing building stock holds surprises at handover. On these buildings, airtightness and acoustic insulation between dwellings depend largely on the quality of workmanship of the repairs, which is difficult to verify other than by measurement. In Béziers we carry out regulatory acceptance measurements, air permeability, acoustics, ventilation and DPE, as an independent third party, with compliance certificates.

Our measurements

Six families of measurements & diagnostics in Béziers.

RE2020 air permeability testing

QUALIBAT 8711

Airtightness testing (Q4Pa-surf air permeability): an intermediate test at the weathertight-shell stage to correct defects before lining, and a regulatory RE2020 acceptance test on the finished building.

Acceptance acoustic testing

NF EN ISO 16283

Airborne sound insulation (DnT,A / DnT,A,tr), impact sound (L'nT,w), equipment noise and reverberation: verification of the NRA housing requirements and the ERP order, carried out as an independent third party.

RE2020 ventilation airflow testing

QUALIBAT 8741

Functional checking of ventilation systems (airflow rates, pressure drops, ductwork airtightness) required by RE2020 at the handover of new dwellings.

Housing and commercial energy performance certificate (DPE)

certified assessor

Legally binding energy performance certificate (DPE), issued by a certified assessor, for sale, letting and monitoring under the tertiary-sector decree.

Drone aerial inspection

DGAC drone pilot

Inspection of roofs and façades, aerial thermography, photogrammetry and mapping by drone (DGAC-registered drone pilot), on sites that are difficult to access.

Electromagnetic field (EMF) measurements

NF EN 50492

Low frequencies at 50 Hz (electric field kV/m, magnetic field µT) and radiofrequencies from 9 kHz to 300 GHz (V/m), following the UTE/NF C99-132 and ANFR protocols. A criterion recognised in HQE and NF Habitat certification.

Why ARKENOR

What the local competitor does not cover.

Independent third party

Acceptance measurements kept separate from design: an objective, enforceable certificate for the client.

Drone inspection (DGAC)

Aerial thermography and photogrammetry by a DGAC-registered drone pilot, for hard-to-reach sites in Béziers.

Upstream → downstream chain

From calculation (ARKEMEP) to measurement (ARKENOR) and independent third-party certification (IRICE, Cofrac 5-0655).

FAQ

FAQ, measurements & diagnostics in Béziers

Yes. ARKENOR conducts acceptance measurements (air permeability, acoustics, ventilation) as an independent third party, separate from the design engineering office, which guarantees the objectivity of the certificate towards the client/developer and the technical inspector.
Yes. RE2020 measurements are carried out under QUALIBAT 8711 (air permeability) and 8741 (ventilation system checking) qualifications, recognised for regulatory certificates at handover.
On-site measurements are scheduled according to the progress of the works and the location. An intermediate air permeability test is slotted in from the weathertight-shell stage; acceptance measurements are programmed before handover. We confirm the date once we receive the works programme and the drawings.
Yes, and it is often here that measurement brings the most value. The method is the same as for new build, but the results are less predictable: leaks concentrate at junctions with the existing structure, at ducts, boxing-in and timber floors, points that calculation does not model finely. In such cases we recommend an intermediate measurement during the works, when corrections remain simple and inexpensive, rather than a single acceptance measurement that leaves no margin.
