Introduction
Principles : Site noise considerations Establish noise standards Room acoustic considerations Sound isolation between use spaces Vibration control for mechanical equipment Audio/visual system considerations
Sound and noise Please differentiate between sound and noise Define “frequency” SPL (Sound Pressure Level) 音壓 Pa : Pa – Pascal dB : dBA : A-weighting curve has been widely ad
opted for environmental noise measurement in roadway noise and aircraft noise analyses
Sound and noise
NC Rating : ? NC-25:
Loudness of all frequencies must fall at or below the NC-25 curve
以 p6 為例,人對於 NC-25 高頻音 (4kHz)能容忍之背景聲音音壓為 ? NC-25 低頻音(63Hz) 所能容忍之背景聲音音壓為 ?
Room Acoustics
Physical characteristics of a space for the hearing of directed and reflected sound
High level of reflected sound – poor room acoustics creating unwanted background noise
Reverberation the time required for the sound to be absorbed gradually and reduced below hearing level
Room Acoustics
Sound absorbing materials reduce reverberation
Multi-purpose rooms : Musical activities: longer reverberation is
preferred(1.5 seconds – acceptable) Speech activities: low reverberation is bet
ter (<1 seconds – acceptable); too long causing interference
Sound Absorption
Sound absorbing materials used in building are rated using the Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC)
Average of sound absorption coefficients from 250 Hz to 2000 Hz (speech frequency) Perfectly absorptive – NRC = 1.0 Perfectly reflective – NRC = 0.0
Sound Absorption
Acoustically transparent materials: fabric, perforated metal, and spaced wood slats acoustically transparent allowing sound energy to pass through and be absorbed by the material located behind
Absorptive materials: Thicker porous materials in lay-in grid ceiling Thick glass fiber ceiling tile (or adding acoustic
absorption to the space – suspend acoustic baffles
Sound Insulation
Purpose: reduce intrusive noise; reduce the transmission of sound through solid barriers in buildings
5.1 Principle of sound insulation Reduction of sound energy from one area
to another by absorbing or reflecting – sound transmission loss (TL)
TL of Massive wall > TL of lighter wall Use of dual panel partition : increase TL
Sound Insulation 5.2 Sound insulation construction
STC (Sound Transmission Class): rating of a wall, floor or ceiling determined by the component of the construction. 傳音等級
5.2.1 Wall construction What is the min STC rating for a conference room
and a office? What is the min STC rating for a room having ampl
ified sound systems?
Sound Insulation
5.2 Sound insulation construction 5.2.1 Wall construction- What are the cons
iderations for actual construction of sound-rated partition? Air and sound leaks through cracks Air and sound leaks through normal openings Structural connections between double stud p

Sound Insulation 5.2 Sound insulation construction
5.2.1 Wall construction- movable partition-flexible space utilization
What are the types of operable partition? Panel operable wall : better sound isolation
(electronic or manual operations) Accordion partitions : for visual privacy
Sound Insulation 5.2 Sound insulation construction
5.2.2 Floor construction Two acoustical functions provided by floor
and ceiling: airborne sound insulation, and impact insulation
Insulation can be upgraded by decoupling ceiling from the structure
Mechanical and electrical systems noise control
6.1 Space Planning Cost-effective noise control technique Avoid locating mechanical equipment roo
ms and electrical transformer rooms near spaces that require low background noise level
Floating floor : neoprene pad + concrete slab
Mechanical and electrical systems noise control
6.2 Noise control for main building equipment Use quietest type fan
Down discharge fan Side discharge fan
Mechanical and electrical systems noise control
6.2 Noise control for main building equipment Fan noise transmission Duct borne noise
– Breakout noise
Mechanical and electrical systems noise control
6.2 Noise control for main building equipment Absorption of fan-generated noise
Provide long duct lengths between fans and the nearest air register serving a room
Treat the duct internally with duct liner Mitigation of air turbulence
Using ducts with ample cross-sectional area Keeping duct run straight Round ductwork better than rectangular ductwork

6.2 Noise control for main building equipment Crosstalk Silencers Duct lagging

6.2 Noise control for main building equipment Variable speed drives and their cabinets sho
uld be vibration isolated, and never adjacent to an acoustically sensitive room

very close to the lecture or performer Loudspeaker
Central cluster: groups all the required loudspeakers at one location (Fig 25), provide best match for audio and visuals
Distributed system: works well with low-ceiling room (Fig 26)
