SOUND
Learning Outcomes 1
Students would be able to:
Describe precisely relationship
between man and its envirobnment
on the aspect of sound, room
acoustics and sound transmission.
Introduction to
Acoustics
Objectives
1.To develop controlled environment for
human comfort.
2.Helps occupants realize the orientation
and direction.
2.0 Velocity
1. Moving distance in a
second at fix direction.
2. Unit SI in m/s
3. Simbol
1. From the wave behaviour, when wave lwngth
is multiplied with frequency, it is the samae
as the distance that sound moves in a second
which is called velocity.
2. Standard velocuty for sound in buildings
is340 m/s
Example;
For a sound that has a frequency of 340 m/s,
What is the length of the wave?
Given the frequency of the sound is 1000 m/s.
SOUND MEASUREMENTS
What is decibel?
Sound level whether it is sound power
level, Sound intensity level or Bel(B)
One Bel indicates the ratio of 10 and 2
Bel is equal to 100 and so on. Any
measurement using Bel will produce
large number.
So the suitable unit is Decibel. Decibel is
equal to 1/10 bel .So the number
measured will be reduced.
SOUND PRESSURE
MEASUREMENT
Sound
Pressure P is an average
atmosphere pressure which is caused
by sound and the unit is Pascal (Pa).
SOUND POWER MEASUREMENT
The total sound produce from a sound
source and is measured in Watt(W).
SOUND INTENSITY MEASUREMENT
When a sound comes out from a source
will reduce its intensity because the
sound distributes to the vast

SOUND LEVEL
The SOUND LEVEL METER measures the strength of
sound. The unit is in decibels (dB) and is usually
measured with a dB meter. The threshold of quiet sound is
zero dB and the onset of painful sound is 100 dB
The sound level depends on the distance between the
sound source and the place of measurement, possibly one
ear of a listener.

ABSORPTION
The Purpose
1. Reduce the noise level.
2. Avoid the sound reflection which can cause mixed, confused and
echoes sound.
3. Reduce the Reverberation time.(RT)
The sound
insulation to
absorb the
sound.
Need reflector
Reflector is
placed at this
point. To amplify
the sound.
A = 0.161 V/RT,
where the room volume is in m3 .
For example,
To achieve a 0.5s reverberation time in a 312-m3 room would require a total of about
100 m2 of sound absorption. If each person adds 0.75 m2 of sound absorption, 25
people would add 19 m2. Thus a further 81 m2 would be required to meet the 0.5-s
RT goal.
To meet a 0.7-s reverberation time goal would require only 72 m2 of sound
absorption or 53 m2 in addition to the sound absorption of the 25 people.
The best RT
1.Shorter RT means clearer sound.
2.Longer RT causes mixed sound (good for music)
How to measure RT
Use Sabine formula
RT = 0.16V
A
RT = reverberation time
A = the absorption surfaces area
( total area of the components X Absorption coefficient)
V = volume of the room/space
Sound absorption
Sound absorption is the incident sound that is not reflected back.
When a sound wave strikes an acoustical material the sound wave causes the
fibers or particle makeup of the absorbing material to vibrate.
The more fibrous a material is the better the absorption; conversely denser
materials are less absorptive.
Acoustic Wedges
Soundproofing
1. POROUS ABSORPTION
The sound wave vibrates in the
cavity space/holes
The friction caused by the
vibration will turn the sound
energy into heat energy and the
sound will reduce.
2 types of porous absorption
Cavity holes.
1. Bulk type
The performance of this absorbents is better. For example : Foam and
fiber
1. Curtains
a) The air gap between the glass window and the curtain acts as the
cavity space that trap the sound waves.
b) The trapped sound will reflected in the cavity area, slow down and
die in the end.
c) The curtain material itself is a good absorber.
d) It gives double impacts to sound absorption.
2. Carpets
It absorbs the sound/vibration on the floor.
Types of carpets:
3. Akustik plaster
4. Acoustic blankets

This panel will vibrate at the frequency that is the same as the source
frequency.
But.
In reality, this panel in not elastic. That is why the sound energy will be
forced to stop vibrating and change it into heat energy.
heat energy received = absorbed sound energy.
This absorber is suitable for high
frequency sound.

Factors in calculating RT
1.RT cannot be added or subtracted directly. Total RT can be obtained by
calculating the absorption unit.
2.Sketch the situation to help finding accurate measurement.
3.Any surface than is not touched, should not be included in the calculation
4.Prepare a table that includes all the related elements in the calculation.
Example calculation.
Example 1.
A 2000m3 hall is usually used for assemblies every Monday morning. Assume that the hall
doesnt have any absorption materials that causes bad echoes. Calculate the RT of the hall if
200 students with absorption coefficient of 0.46 Sabine use the hall for their activities.
Example 2.
A hall with a volume of 1500m has the following finishes that absorb sound at 500Hz.
Plastered brick wall --------400m ---------0.02 Sabine
Plastic tiled floor ----------300m ---------0.05
Plaster board ceiling ------300m --------0.10
Students
----------100 people --0.46
Calculate the RT of the hall when 100 students fill the hall.
Calculate the extra area of sound absorption needed to be added in the hall so that it can
suitably used for a speech program next week. The optimum RT for speech is 1 second.
Example 3
A hall dimension of 30m X 10m X 5m. There is an opening at one of the walls. The opening
area is 50 m. The wall is a plastered brick, the ceiling is from hard board and the floor is
made of wood block on the concrete. There are also 200 fabric type seats. The measured
RT of the emptied hall is 1.5second at 500Hz. Using the table given below, calculate the area
of the carpet needed as a sound absorption to reach the correct RT.

hall is 9 second. When there is an assembly, the hall has the RT of 6 second.
Calculate the number of audience needed to reduce the RT if each audience acts
as sound absorption coefficient of 0.46 Sabine.
TRANSMISSION
Acoustic transmission in building design refers
to a number of processes by which sound can be
transferred from one part of a building to another
It is the weak sound energy which transmitted
through an object but it can damage the
building structures.
Airborne transmission - a noise source in
one room sends air pressure waves which
induce vibration to one side of a wall or
element of structure setting it moving such
that the other face of the wall vibrates in an
adjacent room.
Structure-borne transmission
1.Vibration from an operating fan may be
transmitted to the interior of the building
through building structure when the fan is
directly mounted on a supporting structure
without proper isolation.
2.The vibration transmitted may activate the
building structure to generate noise which
causes noise disturbance to residents inside
the building.
SRI
Transmission coefficient.
1. When sound is incident upon a building element some of it will be
reflected and some will be transmitted through the wall.
2. The fraction of incident energy transmitted is called the transmission
coefficient . The sound reduction index , is in turn defined in terms of
the transmission coefficient.
The transmission loss (TL) for a partition and the noise reduction in the room
Example question 1
A 5m X 2 m wall is used as a partition between 2 spaces. If the wall SRI is 35 dB,
calculate the sound transmission coefficient of the same wall.
Example question 2
An office measuring 5m X 7m X 3m is adjacent to the factory hall.. The dividing
partition between the rooms is 6m X 3m. The SRI of the wall is 40dB. The sound
pressure level (SPL) in the factory is 80 dB. Calculate the estimated SPL in the
receiving room if the reverberation time there is 1 second.
Example question 2
Calculate the average transmission coefficient of the 5m X 5m wall partition that
has a door and a window on it. The SRI of the wall is 55dB. The 2m window and
7m door on the wall have the SRI of 35dB and 35dB.
Example question 4
A 20m2 brick wall is placed as an insulated partition with the sound reduction
index of 65 dB. A door is built onto the wall with the sound reduction index of
40dB. Calculate the area of the door if the SRI for both components is 50dB.
Now
It can be seen that the poor insulation of the window of small area
reduces the overall insulation very considerably. If the window had
fitted badly the insulation would be even lower.
Example 4
A partition of total area 10 m2 consists of a brick wall plastered on both sides to
a total thickness of 250 mm and contains a window of area 2 m2. The brickwork
has a sound reduction index of 51 dB and the window 18 dB at a certain
frequency. Calculate the sound reduction of the complete partition at this
frequency.
Brickwork : if TB is the transmission coefficient of the brick, then

What is vibration?
Any vibration has two measurable quantities. How far
(amplitude or intensity), and how fast (frequency) the object
moves helps determine its vibration characteristics. The
terms used to describe this movement are frequency,
amplitude and acceleration.
Frequency
The number of cycles that a vibrating object
completes in one second is called
frequency..
Amplitude
measured in meters (m). The intensity of
vibration depends on amplitude.
Free Vibration:
Free vibration occurs when a
mechanical system is set off with an
initial input and then allowed to vibrate
freely.
TYPES OF VIBRATIONS.
1. Periodic Vibration
2. Random Vibration:
3. Transient Vibration:
Preventation methods
CONTROL
ENGINEERING CONTROL.
CAN BE DONE IN SEVERAL WAYS :
1.CHOOSE A SILENCE MACHINES.
Silence machines & silencers.
For example : centrifugal fan
AC compressor needs sound
insulation/dampers/silencers.
2.USE MACHINES THAT IS SUITABLE FOR ITS
BURDEN.
Machines that are forced to work hard
will produced loud noise.
3.SCHEDULE MAINTENANCE.
Machines that are not maintain will
produce loud noise and will damage.

machinery, piping, or ductwork, serving to reduce noise or
vibration
The vibrations that are carried to the remainder of the
building structure.

Lift& esclator
2 noise sources produced by the equipment and banging/stamping on
of the car.
Reduce the vibration
- is placed at the places where vibration and loud noise
are produced.
Inertia Block
A concrete block which serves as a
base for mechanical equipment such
as fans or pumps; the block is
mounted on a resilient support to
reduce the transmission of vibration
to the building structure
Inertia block thickness is not less
than 150mm and usually made
from reinforced concrete and at
least the same weight as the
equipments.
Practical Remedies
Provide an inertia block to
support the pump set (see
Fig. 11) so as to add rigidity
and stability to the pumping
system, and provide
vibration isolators (see
Fig.11) to support the
inertia block, thereby
isolating it from the
building structure (see App.
VII and VIII).
Provide flexible connectors
between the pump and
associated pipe work,
thereby preventing the
vibration of the pumps et
being transmitted to the
pipe work .
