French term

bruit solidien

French to English Tech/Engineering Other
In a commercial lease, the tenant shall be responsible for any disturbance and noise in the leased premises, including "bruits solidiens". I understand from searches on the Internet that this refers to noise not transmitted by airwaves but would appreciate finding out whether there is a special technical term for this.
Proposed translations (English)
3 +5 structure-borne noise
