For the evaluation of the normalized impact sound pressure level, the reverberation time of the receiving room should be measured. This paper deals with the effect of the time constant of FFT analyzer and the measuring points on reverberation time. It is found that the time constant should be in the range between 10 ms and 35 ms. While the effect of measuring points on the reverberation time is significant when the bandwidth is narrow it is negligible in the evaluation of the normalized impact sound pressure level.

Floor impact sound in high-rise apartment building became one of social problems. A lot of civil complaints on floor impact sound occur continuously and the number of disputes between neighbors in small and aged apartment buildings is increasing. Interests on heavy-weight impact sound pressure level measurement and evaluation method is increased. Previous study reported that heavy-weight impact sound level was changed by the sound field condition of receiving reverberation chamber. In this study, heavy-weight impact sound pressure level change by the receiving sound field condition was measured in standard test facility and mock-up test room. These two experimental conditions were designed to simulate averaged living room of common apartment units. By the change of sound absorption power in receiving room, heavy-weight impact sound pressure level in most of frequency bands were changed in standard test facility and mock-up room. Normalized maximum sound pressure level regulated in ISO 16032 showed wider range of heavy/soft impact sound pressure level. Heavy/soft impact sound pressure level change was became smaller by the application of standardized maximum sound pressure level and ISO/CD 10140-3 Amd 2 method. In the case of standardized maximum sound pressure level, absolute sound pressure level changed. From these results, receiving sound field correction method regulated in ISO/CD 10140-3 Amd 2 is needed for the precision measurement and evaluation of heavy-weight impact sound.

In order to find out impact insulation properties, various types of current radiant floor heating systems and light-framed floors that are used in light-framed residential buildings were evaluated for two types of impact sources at the same time. Sound Pressure Level (SPL) was different from each impact sources for those spectrum patterns and peaks. In case of light-framed floor framework, the excitation position and the assumed effective vibrating area have effects on sound pressure level but it is not considerable, and Normalized SPL was reduced for each frequency by increasing the bending rigidity of joist. The mortar layer in the radiant heating system had relatively high density and high impedance, therefore, it distributed much of the impact power when it was excited, and reduced the Normalized SPL considerably. Nevertheless, Increasing a thickness of mortar layer had little influence on SPL. Ceiling components reduced the sound pressure level about 5~25 dB for each frequency. Namely, it had excellent sound insulation properties in a range from 200 to 4,000 Hz frequency for both heavy and lightweight impact sources. Also, there was a somewhat regular sound insulation pattern for each center frequency. The resilient channel reduced the SPL about 2~11 dB, irrelevant to impact source. Consequently, current radiant floor heating systems which were established in light-framed residential buildings have quite good impact sound insulation properties for both impact sources.

경량충격음레벨을 평가하기 위해서는 수음실의 잔향시간을 측정하여 규준화 바닥충격음레벨을 구하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 규준화 바닥충격음레벨과 표준화 바닥충격음레벨을 구할 때 고려하는 보정레벨을 중심으로 등가 흡음력을 결정하는 잔향시간과 수음실의 체적을 변수요인으로 분석하였다. 그 결과 측정된 잔향 시간은 공간에 관계없이 기준보다 2배 이상 길게 나타났고, 등가 흡음력은 기준보다 침실의 경우 1/2 정도 작지만 거실의 경우 기준과 거의 유사하게 나타나 침실의 경우 두 보정레벨이 유사하지만 거실의 경우 전자가 후자보다 낮게 보정되는 것으로 나타났다.

규준화 바닥충격음레벨 평가시 잔향시간은 흡음력 보정을 위해서 필수적으로 고려해야 할 사항이다. 그러나, 잔향시간의 측정 편차가 심하기 때문에 이로 인해 규준화 바닥충격음레벨이 5dB 이상씩 변동하는 경우가 생긴다. 잔향시간 측정 편차의 원인은 실의 형상에 따른 고유모드 분포로 설명할 수 있으며, 측정시 계측기에서의 원인, 특히 동특성에 따라 측정 편차가 심하다는 것을 실험을 통해 알 수 있었다. 또한, 잔향곡선은 직선적인 형태일 경우에 정확한 측정이 가능하나, 저주파수 대역에서는 잔향곡선에 요철이 많이 생기므로 측정 데이터들을 이용하여 잔향시간을 산출할 때 세심한 주의가 요구된다.
