Sound Insulation in Buildings
Author: Jens Holger RindelPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 149870042X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
The book explains sound insulation in buildings at a level suitable for both graduate students and expert consultants. Theoretical models are set out for sound transmission in buildings, with an emphasis on thick and heavy constructions. Thus, the description is not restrained by the common assumption of bending waves which is characteristic of thin plates, only. A general description is provided, with the modal density in the structures as a key parameter. At low frequencies statistical energy analysis is replaced by modal energy analysis. Sound transmission through windows and facades is represented by a model that allows any angle on incidence, including the special case of grazing incidence. One chapter is devoted to the subjective evaluation of sound insulation, particularly noise from neighbours, and how this can be applied in a sound classification scheme for dwellings. Measurement methods in building acoustics are presented with emphasis on modern methods using MLS signals or sine sweeps. The analysis and estimation of measurement uncertainty is discussed in detail. In a final chapter examples of experimental buildings with high sound insulation are explained.

Acoustic Insulation Factor

ISBN:
Category : Noise control
Languages : en
Pages : 33
Book Description
The Acoustic Insulation Factor (AIF) is used as a measure of the reduction of outdoor noise provided by the elements of the outer surface of a building. It was originally developed for use with aircraft as the noise source, but has recently been extended for use with noise from road traffic and railways. This paper is intended as background information to supplement the design procedures presented in the Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation' s publications New Housing and Airport Noise and Road and Rail, Noise: Effects on Housing. The following section deals with the basic nature of the AIF. Specific details relevant to its application for insulation against aircraft and surface transportation noise are given in Sections III and IV. The final section presents a detailed procedure for determining the AIF from the laboratory sound transmission loss data for a building component.
