Apartment housing is a widely-spread type in Korean housing market. Nevertheless, it has caused serious problems such as traditional community corruption, unsafe structure, defects and litigation from noise. Noise, especially in concrete structure for apartment housing, is hardly controlled in proper to prevent sound transmission between upper and lower families with existing system, In foreign countries, there are floating floor systems to enhance the noise control performance in multi-family housing. Therefore, this study aims to analyze subjective responses on sound characteristics in residential buildings. We analyzed the residential response and the quantities of measured data from environmental noise. The results of this study will be useful to provide guideline to make policy of environmental noise and criteria.

Noise and vibration induced by subway operation is one of the major problem for the residents living nearby railway tracks. Many scientists and engineers have been working on proposing the more accurate prediction equation of noise and vibration to provide the better residential environment. Some predictiction equations were determined to compare the measurement value of a noise obtained from the inside of a residential area. It was observed that the condition of a soil type is one of the major parameter which should be considered to obtain the more accurate prediction value of a noise.

This paper presents an information system of noise and vibration caused by people as a major source of the environmental problem in residential areas with which people are dissatisfied. Therefore, it is important to monitor the influence of noise and vibration in residential areas. Generally, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) play an important role in noise and vibration mapping. The purpose of this paper is to investigate noise and vibration effects in an urban area and develop a new information network in GIS. Noise and vibration measurements were carried out at a road randomly chosen near INJE University. The obtained values are graphically represented with GIS. Therefore, it is possible to predict noise and vibration in GIS when establishing effective urban plans.

본 논문은 주거공간에서 고령자 청력손실을 고려한 소음 및 잔향에 따른 음성 전송 성능을 청취실험을 통해 평가하였다. 주거환경 소음으로 바닥충격음, 교통소음, 공기전달음과 배수소음을 대상으로 하였으며, 공동주택의 잔향환경을 모사하기 위해 실내음향 컴퓨터시뮬레이션을 실시하여 충격응답를 추출하였다. 청취실험 음원은 고령자 청력손실(65세 남성)을 반영하기 위해 소음 및 단어 음원의 고주파대역의 음압레벨을 저감시킨 음원(고령자 음원)과 정상청력을 반영한 원음(청년 음원)을 대상으로 하였다. 청취실험은 각각 3개의 소음레벨($L_{Aeq}$ 30, 40, 50 dB)과 잔향시간(0.5, 1.0, 1.5 s)을 갖는 음환경 조건에서 제시된 단어($L_{Aeq}$ 55 dB)의 음성요해도(speech intelligibility)와 듣기 어려운 정도(listening difficulty)를 평가하는 것으로 하였다. 청취실험 결과, 음성레벨이 55 dB($L_{Aeq}$)일 때 잔향시간 1.0 s 이하 조건에서 충격소음(점핑음) 50 dB($L_{i,Fmax,AW}$)와 정상소음(도로, 음악, 배수 소음) 40 dB($L_{Aeq}$) 이하의 소음레벨에서는 고령자 및 청년 음원 모두 90 % 이상의 음성요해도와 30 % 이하의 듣기 어려운 정도를 확보할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 고령자 청력손실을 반영한 고령자 음원의 경우 청년 음원 보다 음성요해도는 0 % ~ 5 % 낮았고 듣기 어려운 정도는 2 % ~ 10 % 높은 것으로 나타났다.

Background: Noise has been linked to an increased risk of various health issues, including stress, anxiety, insomnia, and cardiovascular disorders. However, research on the relationship between residential traffic noise and mental health in South Korea is limited. Objectives: This study aims to examine the correlation between regional traffic noise levels and mental health using an ecological study design. Methods: In this ecological study, all data were collected from the Korean Statistical Information Service. Traffic noise data in residential areas and the prevalence of mental health indices in 44 cities with noise monitoring stations were obtained. Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated to assess the relationship between regional traffic noise levels and mental health indices. Results: Daytime traffic noise levels were found to have a positive correlation with stress perception (r=0.428, p=0.004) and showed a borderline positive correlation with depressive symptom prevalence (r=0.273, p=0.073). In cities with airports, significant correlations was observed between 24-hour average noise levels and depressive symptoms (r=0.604, p=0.010), whereas this relationship was not observed in cities without airports (r=0.048, p=0.813). Multiple regression analysis, which adjusted for factors such as age, gender ratio, smoking, obesity, unemployment, urban size, and the presence of an airport, confirmed the relationship between 24-hour average noise levels and stress perception (beta=0.287, p=0.024). Conclusions: This study identified correlations between regional traffic noise levels and depressive symptoms or stress perception in adults, with a more pronounced effect in areas with airports. These findings suggest a potential impact of residential traffic noise on mental health, highlighting the importance of preventive measures like noise management in urban planning to promote mental well-being.

According to the improvements of the education and the cultural level, the noise pollutions which have been occupying a major portion of civil petitions about environment is gradually aggravating. Especially, the plumbing noises which took place at machine room of dormitory are the compositive shapes of an air-borne sounds and a solid-borne sounds. So it has been causing to injure the comfortable residential environment of residents that it is propagated in a residential space. Judging from this point of view, this study grasped the propagation and the properties of attenuation about four varieties's plumbing noise which took place at machine room to understand that it cause influences to a residential space. In this point, we understand the peculiar features by measuring noise, which was generated from equipment in machine rooms of three dormitories having different features. On the basis of these features, we examine all predictability and reliability in comparing the predictive value with the measurable one, using architectural acoustic simulation.

One of the major differences of Korean residential building compared with other countries is a rigid diaphragm of a floor due to the panel heating system. An increment of a gravity floor load might cause vibration problem when the composite floor system is introduced to the panel heating system. Since the noise criteria of a residential building is lower than that of an office building, the development of a noise absorbing system should be preceded. The response evaluation was performed for the finished floor, that is with panel heating and noise absorbing system. The natural frequency was obtained both from an experimental study and an analytical study. An appropriate vibration condition of a floor with panel heating and noise absorbing systems was evaluated from this study.

Korean society is faced with various new problems arising from the development projects of new towns, industrial cities, large-scale residential complexes, etc. started from the 1970s. Particularly with the construction of residential and industrial complexes by the roadsides, they are openly exposed to road traffic noise and vibration. Thus, the objective of this study is to examine using noise maps how increasing traffic volume affects road traffic noise and what problems it causes in areas where new towns or complexes are constructed by development projects. According to the results of this study, in areas around the sites of development projects, the noise level increased by road traffic noise compared to that before development and was 1.16~6.92 times higher than the environmental noise standard, but measures to reduce road traffic noise was lukewarm. In addition, areas with soundproof facilities showed a noise level 1~3 step lower than other areas, and in individual buildings, the noise level on the side facing the road was 1~2 step higher than that on the rear side.

The purpose of this study is to propose indoor noise level in residential buildings affected by transportation noise (road traffic, railway and air-craft noise) based on subjective evaluations. 30 subjects participated in the experiment to evaluate the noise. Experimental environment reproduced real living and office environment, and in asking subjects' annoyance to the noise. (omitted)
