The major advantage of transparent materials over traditional materials in noise barriers is aesthetics. The transparent panel materials such as clear plastic or glass are an ideal way of reducing or virtually eliminating the visual impact of a noise barrier. With the use of transparent materials, the drivers' view of the roadside and the sunlight penetration to the highway would not be blocked. With the use of transparent materials, the highway and barrier appear less imposing. Korean Industrial Standards for soundproof panels have been established. But, transparent soundproof panels are not included in this standards. And, some specifications provide only a few basic characteristics for transparent soundproof panels. To develop guidelines on quality criteria for transparent soundproof panel, their mechanical properties such as wind load resistance, safety under impact, and abrasion resistance were experimentally investigated.

터널발파작업에 따른 발생소음의 크기는 소음 계측기의 특성상 근거리의의 측정이 불가하며 방음재질의 종류에 따라 소음저감 효과는 매우 다양한 차이를 나타낸다. 본 연구에서는 터널발파작업에 따라 설치되는 방음시설의 방음재질과 종류에 따른 소음저감 효과와 근거리에서의 소음예측방법을 조사하였다. 방음재질과 종류에 의한 소음과 주파수의 크기를 비교 분석하기 위하여 콘크리트 흄관 내에서 화공품의 일종인 폭죽으로 소음을 발생시키고 약 20여 종류의 방음재질을 설치하여 근거리에서 소음과 주파수의 크기를 측정 고찰하였다.

The research and development in soundproof materials for preventing noise have attracted great attention due to their social impact. Noise insulation materials are especially important in the field of soundproofing. Since the insulation ability of most materials follows a mass rule, the heavy weight materials like concrete, lead and steel board are mainly used in the current noise insulation materials. To overcome some weak points in these materials, fiber reinforced composite materials with lightweight and other high performance characteristics are now being used. In this paper, innovative insulation sheet materials with carbon and/or glass fabrics and nano-silica hybrid PU resin are developed. The parameters related to sound performance, such as materials and fabric texture in base fabric, hybrid method of resin, size of silica particle and so on, are investigated. At the same time, the wave analysis code (PZFlex) is used to simulate some of experimental results. As a result, it is found that both bundle density and fabric texture in the base fabrics play an important role on the soundproof performance. Compared with the effect of base fabrics, the transmission loss in sheet materials increased more than 10 dB even though the thickness of the sample was only about 0.7 mm. The results show different values of transmission loss factor when the diameters of silica particles in coating materials changed. It is understood that the effect of the soundproof performance is different due to the change of hybrid method and the size of silica particles. Fillers occupying appropriate positions and with optimum size may achieve a better effect in soundproof performance. The effect of the particle content on the soundproof performance is confirmed, but there is a limit for the addition of the fillers. The optimization of silica content for the improvement of the sound insulation effect is important. It is observed that nano-particles will have better effect on the high soundproof performance. The sound insulation effect has been understood through a comparison between the experimental and analytical results. It is confirmed that the time-domain finite wave analysis (PZFlex) is effective for the prediction and design of soundproof performance materials. Both experimental and analytical results indicate that the developed materials have advantages in lightweight, flexibility, other mechanical properties and excellent soundproof performance.

This paper shows the model to design the shape and materials of noise barrier for high speed trains(TGV, ICE, ect). The design of soundproof facilities is to be conducted by MITHRA for the prediction of noise impact of the TGV and for optimising noise barriers in order to reduce the noise generated by high speed trains. A number of computer simulations are carried out in order to determine the specification of noise barrier on test track.

Transparent noise barrier panels have the advantages of transmitting light to nearby residents and allowing drivers to orientate themselves by providing views of the surrounding area. To develop guidelines on quality criteria for transparent soundproof panels, their sound transmission loss and weatherability were experimentally investigated. In Korea, the sound transmission loss of noise barrier panels should be more than 25 dB at 500 Hz and 30 dB at 1000 Hz. The transmission loss tests of transparent panels were performed in accordance with KS F 2808. Typically, plastic materials suffer from color changes when exposed to ultraviolet(UV) light over extended periods. Therefore, weathering of plastics is one of the most important properties for outdoor applications. Protection against UV radiation and weathering is usually accomplished by using UV stabilizer additives or coatings. Transparent materials for soundproof panels were examined through accelerated weathering tests and their weathering resistances were evaluated from changes in yellowness index.

PURPOSES : This study is to compare sound transmission loss(STL) value depending on the four kinds of materials, PC(Polycarbonate), PMMA(Polymethyl mathacrylate), PE(Polyethlyene), PP(Polypropylene), and two types of structure, single layer and double with vacuum layer, of soundproof panel. METHODS : With four sorts of polymer material, the specimens were made as various structures, 4 mm and 8 mm of single soundpoof panel and vacuum layered 4 mm of one. The experimental condition and procedures were complied with authorized process test, KS F 2808. RESULTS : STL of single panel made of PC were the greatest followed by PMMA, PE, PP regardless of the thickness of panel, However, STL of PMMA panel began to decrease around 2500 Hz and reached the lowest value among others in 5000 Hz. Vacuum layer soundproof panel showed good performance in more than 2000 Hz. Only vacuum layer panel made of PC presented resonance frequency at 800 Hz while that of other vacuum ones at 1000 Hz. CONCLUSIONS : According to results of single layer, it was found that single panel functioned as the theorical way we expected in terms of surface density. That trends were blurred as the panel got thicker. And it was suggested also that vacuum layer panel performed well at high frequency, more than 2000 Hz.

방음패널의 차음특성은 재료의 면밀도와 소음의 주파수와 높은 상관관계가 있으므로 방음패널의 두께 및 재료의 선택에 있어 실제 도로소음의 특성을 반영하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 재료의 경량 및 시공측면에서 수요가 증가하고 있는 플라스틱 소재 중 방음패널로 활용 가능한 소재를 선정하여 도로교통 소음의 주파수에 따른 차음특성을 평가하였다. 대상 패널은 물리적 특성을 조사하여 효율성 및 경제성 평가를 통해 polypropylene (PP)과 high-density polyethylene (HDPE)를 선정하였고 현재 방음패널의 재료로 사용되고 있는 polycarbonate (PC)와 polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)와의 재료 및 두께에 따른 차음특성을 비교하였다. 그 결과 방음패널의 차음특성은 재료의 면밀도에 비례하여 PC, PMMA, HDPE, 그리고 PP순으로 높은 투과손실치를 나타내었다. 두께별 차음특성의 경우, 방음패널 두께에 비례하여 투과손실이 증가하나 일치효과로 인해 투과손실이 감소하는 주파수가 낮아짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 결론적으로, 저감하고자 하는 소음의 주파수대역을 먼저 파악하고 방음패널의 재질과 두께에 따른 주파수별 차음특성을 파악하여 적용한다면 효과적으로 소음을 저감할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 고속도로 방음벽을 대상으로 방음벽의 손상유형 분류 및 손상등급 체계를 마련하고 이를 반영한 방음벽 노후도 평가기법 개발을 목표로 하였다. 방음벽이 방음판, 기초, 지주로 구성되어 있고 10종의 다양한 재질이 활용되고 있는 방음판은 단일 또는 혼합형으로 사용되고 있으며, 방음판의 손상은 단일 또는 복합적인 손상을 나타내는 특징을 나타내고 있어 이러한 방음벽의 특징을 반영할 수 있는 방음벽 노후도 평가모델을 개발하고자 하였다. 방음벽에 주로 사용되고 있는 재질을 금속재, 플라스틱재, 목재, 투명재, 콘크리트재의 재질유형으로 나누고 또한, 각 재질별 손상유형을 부식, 변색, 변형, 깨짐, 탈리로 분류하여 방음벽의 손상유형을 방음벽 구성부재와 재질에 따라 세분화하였다. 방음벽 주요부위별로 각 손상유형별 손상등급을 양호, 경미, 보통, 심함으로 구분하여 방음판, 지주, 기초의 손상등급을 평가, 이를 바탕으로 부위별 노후도를 평가하여 가중평균을 통한 방음벽 전체의 노후도를 평가하는 방식을 통해서 종합적인 방음벽 노후화 정도를 평가하였다. 단일형 또는 혼합형 방음판을 사용하는 방음벽의 노후도 평가는 물론, 손상유형이 단일형 뿐만 아니라 복합형으로 나타나는 방음벽에 대해서도 체계적인 평가가 가능한 노후도 평가 기법을 개발하였으며, 이러한 평가시스템을 통하여, 현재 설치되어 있는 방음시설의 노후화 현황을 체계적으로 파악함은 물론, 이를 토대로 방음벽의 보수 및 개량을 위한 효율적인 유지관리 계획 및 시행에 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
