Abstract

Elevator noise in apartment houses is one of the factors which prevent the residents from quiet and comfortable life. The elevator noise measurement method [KS F ISO 16032] is introduced from the matching ISO standard, however, it has problems in the application to the actual measurement. To visualize the problems, measurements in an apartment house are conducted, which has been suffering from the elevator noise for a long time. The measurement itself is extremely difficult due to the low sound pressure level of elevator, which is lower than 35 dB (A), and the even higher background noise level. However the vibration levels measured at the same time are relatively less disturbing As a result of vibration measurement, it was found that the vibration is clearly measured on the wall, and presents a high correlation coefficient of over 0.8 with the noise levels measured This shows that the vibration level measured on the elevator walls may be rather reliable numbers than the elevator noise levels in the actual noisy condition of elevator halls and the vicinity.
