Five floor coverings were tested with three different types of floor structures in the standard test building in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the floor impact sound reduction. The level of floor impact sound reduction is influenced by not only the types of floor coverings but interrelationship between the floor coverings and floor structures. From the tests, it was found that floor coverings were effective in reducing the floor impact sound using the light impact source. In addition, proper mixtures of the floor structure and the floor covering have shown effectiveness to a certain extent in reducing the floor impact sound using the heavy impact source.

This aim of this study is is an experimental study to introduce the Reduction method of Floor Impact Sound in Apartment Houses by using Model Test, We are measured the floor impact sound in Rahamen and Apartment with Shear Wall and Post-tensioning. There is comparison between Rahmen Structure and Apartment with Shear Wall. The main results from this study are effective in reduction of heavt-weight The slab was constructed by rahamen structure. Heavy-weight can reduced by upgrading naturial frequency of floor impact sound in rahmen structure.

Noise barrier is generally used with welding of joint rail for railway noise reduction in our country. But the noise barrier for high speed railway has weak point in low frequencies about 315Hz band. In this study, For developing of Interference-type Noise Reduction Device(INRD), acoustic analysis were performed using commercial software. For verifying the improvement in the noise reduction, noise measurement before and after installing of INRD were performed in Anechoic Chamber. From these acoustic analysis and noise measurement, it was known that developed INRD has a good noise reduction performance and can be used efficiently with conventional noise barrier.

Numerical analysis was performed to investigate the heavy-weight impact noise of apartment houses. The FEM is practical method for prediction of low-frequency indoor noise. The results of numerical analysis, the shape of the acoustic modes in room-2 are similar to that of acoustic pressure field at the fundamental frequency of acoustic modes. And the acoustic pressure was amplified at the natural frequency of the acoustic modes and structural modes. The numerical analysis result of sound pressure level at 63 Hz and 125 Hz octave-band center frequency are similar to the test results, but at 250 Hz and 500 Hz have some errors. Considering most of bang-machine force spectrum exists below 100 Hz, the noise at 250 Hz and 500 Hz are not important for heavy-weight impact noise. Thus, the FEM numerical analysis method for heavy-weight impact noise can apply to estimate heavy-weight impact noise for various building systems.

Floor impact noise has been evaluated by investigating the temporal and spectral characteristics of the noise. The noises generated by different impactors were analyzed to find out whether there is any correlation with the factors of ACF /IACF (Autocorrelation Function/Inter-aural Cross-correlation Function) [1] and Zwicker parameters [2]. Experiments were undertaken to compare the objective and subjective parameters of the floor impact noises generated by a bang/tapping machine, a rubber ball [3], and a walker. As a result, it was found that $\phi$ (0) and IACC extracted from ACF/IACF, and Loudness, Unbiased Annoyance from Zwicker parameters showed high correlation with subjective evaluations of loudness concerning floor impact noises. In addition, it was revealed that jumping is similar to the ball.

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.

In this study, An analysis of correlation between the vibration transmissions and the dynamic characteristics for floor impact sound insulation materials through model test was carried out. As the results, the correlation coefficients between the vibration transmissions and the dynamic characteristics for floor impact sound insulation materials were over 0.8 at the heavy and light floor impact source and less dynamic stiffness was more effective in reducing the vibration transmission.

This paper reports the development of a special impact fatigue test machine for high pressure vessels. The targeted vessels are subjected to shock pressures equivalent of explosions. This severe loading condition brings many difficulties to the design of test machine. Unfortunately, there are very rare such test machine in the world, and more worse, the machine is not opened and sold.
