The noise by the construction activities is one of the main issues in Korea. To prevent the noise from construction site, construction company installs temporary noise barriers along the construction site boundary. Normally sound insulation performance ($R_w$) of the temporary noise barriers made by metal or plastic is between 18 and 31 dB and metallic noise barriers are around 5 dB higher than plastic noise barriers. Sound absorption performance (NRC) of the temporary noise barriers are between 0.20 and 0.59 so it's difficult to characterize their acoustic performance. In this study, it has founded that sound insulation performance of the temporary noise barrier has been improved about 3dB by stick the high density acoustic sheet and insertion loss of noise barrier is getting increased as the source and receiver approached the temporary noise barriers.

Apartment Buildings have particularity to cluster together, especially, floor is close to resident, it is subject to dissatisfaction about impact noise between up and down floors. However, we require standard for counterplan to reduce the impact noise of floor. In point of fact, it difficult to objective evaluate for performance sound insulation that not physical sound volume but orignal form, means and effect of sound caused to complex noise in apartment house. Unique type of dwelling and structure pattern cause to noise of floor impact which is established by law for standard regulation. It is object to analysis and compare the result of performance sound insulation of upper floor impact and sample construct the subject resilient material of sound insulator

The most realistic way to reduce noise outside the building, such as road traffic noise and aircraft noise, is to strengthen the sound insulation performance at the sound collecting points such as balconies, windows, and exterior walls of each building. However, in light of the reality that shading devices outside buildings are not yet widely used, there are not many studies on sound insulation performance improvement using external windows and window devices such as louvers and blinds. In particular, external blinds can not only block the inflow of strong sunlight in the morning and evening from the outside of the building, but also target the sound insulation effect that blocks the peak noise that occurs during commuting hours. In this study, a study was conducted to improve sound insulation performance against external noise by using an external electric blind (EEB), which is one of the most efficient window and door external shading devices. Various sound insulation performance tests were conducted while changing the configuration of external electric blinds developed for light blocking purposes. Through this, it was verified that an additional sound insulation performance of 6 dB can be obtained by installing an external electric blind compared to the reduction performance of general windows.

Recently, demands for the reduction of noise generated by transformers have been increasing. Accordingly the noise of transformer occasion displeasing to residents therefore the transformer needs to decrease of noise. One method of reduction such a noise is to build a free-standing enclosure of concrete and steel plates around the transformer, however, this method has some disadvantages, for example, a lage area is needed for equipment installation. In the paper, the vibration and noise effect which is transferred from reinforce channel to insulation panel generated by transformer have been identified for the several kinds of insulation panel and damping sheet experimentally.

The aim of this study is to compare the sound insulation performances of window depending on the measurement methods through the field test and analyze the factors that affect the sound insulation performances. Four measurement methods which are specified in the Koran Standard 2235 and the International Standard 140-5 were selected for the study; the outdoor sound source method which is classified the l000mm method and the 10mm method, the indoor sound source method, and the ISO method. The result of this study is that the sound insulation performance of the windows was the best when measured according to the ISO method and the worst the indoor sound source method. Through the study it was found that the main factors affecting the sound insulation performance of the windows were the correction of the specimen's area and the equivalent sound absorption area of the receiving room.

Generally the ceiling frame of apartment house is made of wood. But the wood frame has several problems due to the natural properties such as distortion by shrink, low fire resistance and material loss in the construction field. And it has some defections in sound insulation performance. Therefore it is necessary to develop a new method that can be used as a ceiling frame. This study aims to analyze and to compare the sound insulation characteristics against the floor impact sound between wood ceiling frame and M-bar frame which is made of steel. The results of this study are like these. M-bar frame is more effective than wood ceiling frame in sound insulation. And sound absorbing or sound insulation materials which can be Put on gypsum board are helpful to improve floor impact sound insulation performance.

It is increasing the interest on the comfortable dwelling environment, while sound Insulation performance of materials and elements used in building is falling down as they become thicker and lighter. Therefore, sound insulation performance in building has become the most important factor determining the level of housing, especially for apartment that has common wall and floor with next neighbors. This paper aims to experiment the sound insulation characteristics of floor coverings as their types and to analyse their noise reduction effect.

This study has measured and evaluated the sound insulation of building elements of the hotel near airport. That measurement was made in both the actual site and laboratory. The differences of sound insulation performance in between granite and double glass were measured. Moreover, the difference of sound insulation was analyzed. For the measurement, this study has tried several methodologies, and analyzed the differences respectively. The results from this analysis were applied to produce a design guides for sound insulation to prevent external noise and to make more silent indoor space which satisfied the standard rate of noise.

This study examines the influence factor of flanking noise in the wall. Generally, there is the difference of airborne sound isolation between laboratory and field test. The purpose of this study is examing the cause of droping sound insulation performance in the field and searching the method of improving sound insulation performance. First, we measured the sound isolation in the wall at the lab. Then, we measured it in the field and compared them. At the base of these datum, we measured the flanking noise and solid transmission. For the flanking noise in the wall, we used intensive method. So, we found the influence of solid transmission.

This article introduce Comfort Class V released by Dnv The Class has an objective of classifying ships by noise and vibration levees. It is apparent that noise criteria listed in the Class can not be satisfied without special efforts to enhance sound insulation performance in cabins. Accordingly, panel makers should develope panels which have very high sound insulation performance enough to satisfy the criteria. Also, due to large difference of sound insulation performance between cabin and laboratory, it is necessary that ship yards should improve the method for installing cabins.
