Design Codes and Standards for Noise Control

 Lorman Education Services
nAcoustics strongly affects the human response to our environment and yet noise rises to the top of any list of user complaints in buildings. Complaints relate to poor hearing conditions, annoyance from neighbors, inadequate privacy, noisy mechanical equipment and a plethora of other issues. This teleconference will provide you with information on how to use building design to control sound and noise. The session will discuss the general nature of acoustics problems, the design tools to avoid such problems, and obligatory performance goals and the nature of applicable standards. These standards relate to common interior noise sources for commercial, residential and educational buildings, special facilities (e.g., presentation and performance spaces), and mechanical equipment noise and vibration. Topics will include material selection, construction systems, sustainability and design pitfalls.
