Abstract
Recently, complaints of floor noise have been growing up with the rapid increase of the residential buildings. This demands the effective floor noise isolation system. Since the construction of high-rise the residential buildings will be increased even more in future, the noise isolation is a more important technology in the market. In this study, a new floor noise isolation panel (FNIP) was designed and manufactured using waste rubbers. The noise isolation was investigated at both laboratory and field conditions. Light and heavy weight shock wave showed 52 dB and 48 dB in the field test, respectively. The new system could reduce the total floor thickness by 22~42 mm.
