This paper is to provide the basic way of a acoustical evaluation and efficient control noise by investigating the limits of perceptual loudness of living environment and by finding out any correlation between Physical characteristics of noise and psychoacoustic parameters. The limits of perceptual loudness were selected by the subjects in a chamber for residential and working environment. And the noise sources were analyzed to find out whether there is any correlation with Zwicker parameters and ACF factors. In this study especially, to set up the domestic evaluation grade about floor impact noise. we'd like to suggest the loudness Perception research result as fundamental resource for setting up the evaluation grade through the result that is based on annoyance. In the result of this research, upper limit of heavy-weight impact noise was L-60, and lower limit of it was L-50. On the other hand, upper limit of light-weight impact noise was L-70, and lower limit of it was L-55. It seemed that the loudness of noise from vacuum cleaner noise does not affect its perceived noisiness. Noises implicated In human such as floor walking noise and talking sound, are the most irritating noise in office environment.

현재까지 바닥충격음은 중량 바닥충격음 연구가 주를 이루었다. 경량 바닥충격음의 경우 뜬 바닥구조만으로 충분히 차단성능을 확보할 수 있었기 때문이었다. 뜬 바닥구조에서 중량 바닥충격음의 경우 바닥완충재의 동탄성 측정을 통해 저감성능을 어느 정도 예측할 수 있다. 하지만 최근 사후 확인 제도의 도입으로 인해 다양한 바닥구조가 개발되고 있다. 특히, 완충재가 사용되지 않는 바닥구조에서는 경량 바닥충격음에 지대한 영향을 미치는 것이 바닥마감재이다. 하지만 바닥마감재에 대한 탄성이나 물성을 측정하여 경량바닥충격음을 효과적으로 저감 하기 위한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 이 연구에서는 사후 확인 제도 도입 이후 중요해 질 수 있는 바닥마감재의 경량바닥충격음 저감성능 예측하고자 하였다. 공동주택 바닥마감재로 사용되는 다양한 재료를 선정하여 실제 실험실에서 경량바닥충격음 차음성능을 측정하고 간이 실험으로 진동 전달특성 파악을 통해 경량바닥충격음 예측 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다.

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.
