The appearance of the Korean bell is exceptional comparing to that of other bells. The sound of the Korean bell is also distinguishable because of its remarkable appearance. The sound of the Korean bell is composed of striking sound and residue sound. This study focuses mainly on the striking sound of the Korean bell. The primary purpose of this study is to suggest a proper sound quality evaluation method for Korean bell. To implement this study, examine the formerly established methods which are method using rating method and method using generally used Psychoacoustics metrics. Also, subjective Sound Quality evaluation was conducted to compare the results of method using rating method and the method using psychoacoustics metrics.

Vibration and sound characteristics of King Song-Dok Bell are measured and the modal property is investigated. The effect of striking position and modal property on the beat characteristics is examined. It is first found that the beat characteristics are quite different according to the position on the bell surface and clear beat is periodically generated on the circumference. It turns out that in King Song-Dok Bell, striking Dangjwa(the present striking position) makes a beat in the first vibration mode, as well as it produces very clear beat in the second vibration mode.

The Chun-cheon Citizen's Bell was cast in memory of hosting the 2010 world leasure conference and a striking ceremony was held at the city hall on December 31, 2005. In this study, vibration and sound of the bell are measured and the property of the magnificent sound of the bell is scientifically investigated. Frequency components making the sound are identified and how the frequency components decrease with time is observed using waterfall plot(3-dimensional frequency spectrum). Beat characteristics of the hum(1st frequency) and the fundamental(2nd frequency)are examined by experiment. Directivity of the sound radiation of the bell is examined by measuring the vibration and sound in several directions. Duration of the vibration and the sound is estimated using damping ratio.

Impact sounds, such as those created by footsteps, the dropping of an object or the moving of furniture, can be a source of great annoyance in residential buildings. The character and level of impact noise generated depends on the object striking the floor, on the basic structure of the floor, and on the floor covering. This study base on the evaluate of isolation performance of impact sound according to the impact noise reduction methods. Reduction methods consist of four ways. First way is increase thickness of bare floor and other ways are using the soft coverings on the floor and ceiling assembles. Last way is make floating floor with shock absorbing materials.

This paper is contents about method to measure interception performance of shock noise of floor slab of apartment house to be simple. In the case of interception performance of light floor impact sound level, according to measurement method, grade of sound insulation performance showed greatly differently. But, in the case of interception performance of heavy floor impact sound level, it was similar result in all measurement method. Therefore, use of simple method of measurement was examined by possible fact in case of interception performance of heavy floor impact sound level.

The impact sounds, generated by the walking of people, the dropping of an object or the moving of furniture, can be a source of great annoyance in residential buildings. The characteristics and level of this impact noise depends on the object striking the floor, on the basic structure of the floor, and on the finish materials of floor. The focus of this paper is to investigate the amount of improvement impact sound pressure level according to the change of the composition method of ceiling and wall. For this purpose, we tested impact sound pressure level of several cases which is the inserting of mineral wool, the increase of the thickness of air layer, the using of anti-vibration rubber in ceiling and attach the mineral wool on wall in the Floor Impact Sound Test Building of KICT. The results show that the composition method of ceiling and wall is more effective in the reduction of light weight impact sound specially in 125Hz and 250Hz.

The character and level of impact noise generated depends on the object striking the floor, on the basic structure of the floor, and on the floor covering. This study base on the evaluate of isolation performance of impact sound according to the installation of ceiling and wall. In this test, we measured the reduction of impact sound in the case of inserting absorption materials, increasing of the thickness of air layer and using anti-vibration rubber in ceiling, install of absorption materials in wall. The results of this study show that treatment of ceiling and wall have some reduction of the light weight impact sound and heavy weight impact sound.

Vibration and sound characteristics of King Song-Dok Bell are ivesigated. Natural frequencies. vibration modes and beat period of the bell are precisely measured. The effect of striking position and the position of nodal lines on the beat characteristics is examined. It is first found that the beat characteristics are quote different according to the position on the bell surface and clear beat is periodically generated on the circumference. It turns out that in King Song-Dok Bell, Dangjwa(the present striking position) is located at the position which makes a beat in the first vibration mode, as welt as it produces very clear beat In the second vibration mode.
