Investigating the adequacy of Rubber Ball Impactor for Floor Impact Noise Evaluation

바닥충격음 평가를 위한 고무공 충격원의 타당성 검토

The purpose of this study was to present the possible use of a new standard impactor, the rubber ball (so-called, impact ball), and to assess its evaluation method as fur heavy-weight impact in multi-story residential buildings. Several experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of the impactor on noise propagation in reinforced concrete buildings. Then, the noise from the impact ball was psychoacoustically evaluated. (omitted)
