In the previous test, the verification of the standard floor impact source was carried out comparing the physical characteristics with living impact sources. The result was appeared the validation of the standard impact source was very low because of differences of physical characteristics. This study aims to evaluate annoyance and loudness of standard impact source which is used for the measurement of floor impact sound, and to compare the annoyance and loudness of living impact sources which are produced in real life. The impact sources considered are tapping machine, tire and impact ball as standard sources, and nine real sources which were chosen from the existing researches. The result showed differences of annoyance and loudness between standard impact sources and living impact sources, which means the standard impact sources may rate the performance of floor system inappropriately. In the future, the rating method should be examined how the standard impact sources are similar with real sources in the point of rating the performance of floor system.

The standard impact sources, standardized to rate the sound insulation performance of floor structure, should simulate well the real floor impact sources, which is very important to grade the floor structure then to establish counter plan to improve the performance of floor. Recently the tire, the standard heavyweight impact source, has been discussed that the impact force is too big to represent the real impact force. And researches have been carried on the applicability as a substitute or a supplementary. In addition, tapping machine, the standard lightweight impact source, is also questionable if it is representative of real lightweight impact source. This study aims to examine the similarity of standard impact sources with living impact sources, comparing the physical characteristics such as impact force, frequency contents and sound level. The result showed that the physical characteristics of standard impact sounds were somewhat different with that of living impact sounds, and the standard sources couldn't be verified from this result. Later subjective evaluation should be followed to compare how the physical differences make relationship with the subjective differences.

Floor impact sounds from two different floor systems were measured. One of the two floor systems is a dry floor system (with 150mm concrete slab) and the other is a standard floor system (210mm concrete slab). Real impact sources such as jumping and running of children were used as well as standard impact sources (bang machine, impact ball and tapping machine) to evaluate sound Isolation of the two floor systems. Subjective evaluations of the floor impact sound isolation performance for the two systems were also conducted by the methods of 3 scales & 9 categories, paired comparison and semantic differentials. Measurement results indicate that floor impact sound isolation performance of the dry floor was better than that of standard floor in both cases of real and standard impact sources. The subjects in auditory experiments also evaluated the dry floor as a better sound isolation system.

The characteristics of the four standard floor impact sources (impact ball, bang machine, tapping machine, modified tapping machine) and a human impact source (jumping children) were investigated. First, the mechanical impedance of each source were evaluated. Then, the impact force exposure level of each source were measured. The results showed that fundamental frequency and impedance produced by the impact ball are the most similar to those of the human impact source. The frequency characteristics of the impact ball were most similar to those of jumping children. Consequently, the impact ball more accurately reproduces human impact compared to the other standard impact sources. Therefore, the impact ball should be considered as the reliable impactor in evaluating floor impact noise.

Floor impact sound level is affected by various factors. This study was examined about impact sources and floor coverings influenced at floor impact sound. So this study wishes to get method to reduce sound pressure level of receiving room. Light-weight impact sound in mid frequency and Heavy-weight impact sound in low frequency was affected by floor coverings. Therefore, method to reduce floor impact sound level is to use proper floor coverings. Some coverings can amplify the heavy-weight impact sound in low frequency. Floor impact sound sources used measurement and analysis were standard heavy-impact source(Tapping, Bang, Ball) and living impact sources(Cleaner, Chair, Toy-car, Soccer ball). And Floor coverings used measurements were various thickness vinyl, laminate(or ply-wood) floor. Especially vinyl floor coverings were very effective method to reduce floor impact.

The characteristics of the standard floor impact sources and the human impact source were investigated. First, the mechanical impedance of the each source was evaluated. Second, the impact force exposure levels and impact sounds level driven by the each source were measured. The results showed that the mechanical impedance and impact force exposure level of the impact ball are the most similar to those of the human impact source among the standard impact sources.

표준 중량 충격원의 실제 충격원 재현성에 대한 논란이 있음에도 현재 기준에서는 뱅머신 방식만 사용하고 있다. 현행 기준의 평가방법 및 등급 기준이 충격원 특성을 고려하지 못하고 있어 충격원의 선택에 따라 바닥충격음 차단 성능 등급에 차이가 발생하기 때문이다. 본 연구는 충격원 특성 외에 바닥 진동 거동 특성을 함께 고려한 현행 기준의 바닥충격음 평가 방법 고찰을 목적으로 한다. 공동주택 mock-up 실험동에서 표준 중량 충격원과 실충격원에 대하여 바닥충격음을 측정하고 이를 이용하여 해외 평가 방법과 우리나라의 평가 방법을 비교 검토하였다. 또한 현행 바닥충격음 평가 기준의 대상 주파수 범위를 벗어나는 저주파수 대역의 음압레벨은 네텔란드의 저주파 소음 인지 곡선과 국내 연구자가 제안한 저주파 소음 기준안을 이용하여 평가하였다. 그 결과 기준 및 평가 산정 방법에 따라 성능 평가 결과가 상이하며, 바닥 진동의 지배 주파수 범위에서 모든 충격원에 대한 바닥충격음 가청 소음으로 인식하여 성가시게 느낄 가능성이 매우 크다. 현행 평가 기준의 단일수치 평가량 산정 방법은 충격원에 따라 상이한 음압레벨 스펙트럼 특성을 제대로 반영하지 못하며, 바닥의 진동 거동 지배 주파수를 포함하는 저주파수 대역의 음압레벨을 고려하지 않고 있어 바닥충격음에 대한 평가 결과와 사람의 인지 수준에 차이가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 충격원에 따른 음압레벨의 스펙트럼 특성과 저주파수 대역의 음압레벨을 반영할 수 있도록 현행 기준의 평가 방법을 보완할 필요가 있다.

본 연구는 실제 생활시 주거 건물에서 발생하는 바닥충격음과 유사한 반복적인 충격원을 개발하려 시도하고, 이렇게 개발되는 새로운 충격원에 대응하는 평가 방법을 찾기 위해 수행되었다. 새로운 충격원을 개발해야 하는 필요성은 실제 주거 건물에서의 바닥충격음과 관련된 문제가 주로 어린이의 뛰는 소리에서 비롯되기 때문이다. 그러나 바닥충격음을 측정하고 평가하는 데 사용된 표준 충격원은 단일 충격 형태로, 실제 생활에서 문제가 되는 충격원과는 다른 특성을 가진다. 연구를 위해 18개의 평가 항목을 도출하였으며, 항목에 대한 설문조사 및 청취실험을 통해 바닥충격음을 평가하는 데 적용 가능한 항목으로 심리적 영향(신경쓰임, 화가 남), 일상 생활 방해(수면 방해, 휴식 방해) 및 생리적 영향(혈압 상승) 항목을 제시하였다. 이들 항목은 개별적으로 활용될 수 있으며, 바닥충격음 평가의 유형에 따라 선택적으로 활용할 수도 있다. 이를 통해 실험실에서 청취 실험의 포괄적인 평가나 바닥충격음과 관련된 주거 환경에서의 소음 평가를 더 체계적으로 수행할 수 있을 것이다.

From 1998, the number of household who live in apartment house outnumber that of household live in detached dwelling by 0.3% in Korea. As walls and floors are shared with neighbourhood in apartment houses, percent complaints to the impact noise from the upper floor was so high that it represents an important factor in apartment indoor noise. And the rate is closely correlate with children's running, playing and jumping. In this study, comparisons of standard impact source, such as Tapping Machine and Bang Machine, with real life impact sources were made in order to investigate acoustical characteristics between them. Also reproducibility tests for impact sound sources were carried out.

In this study, the impact force levels of bang machine and impact ball were measured, then the heavy-weight impact sounds generated by the bang machine and impact ball were investigated. It was found that the heavy-weight impact sources generated through modal excitation, and the impact force of the impact ball was similar to that of real impact source. The heavy-weight impact sounds were also measured in the real apartments with different slab thickness and floor structures. The results showed that the floor impact sound levels in terms of $L_{iFmax,AW}$, generated by impact ball sounds were reduced by using the resilient isolators. The frequency characteristics of heavy-weight impact sounds at 125 and 250 Hz were consistent with the characteristics of impact force spectrum. However, the difference between the impact sounds and the impact forces were found at 63 and 500 Hz due to the resonance of the floor structure and flanking noise, respectively.
