In this study, the satisfaction rating to the floor impact sound was investigated for the residents in the apartment Building where the business scheme had been approved after 2005. The results are compared with existing research. The questionnaire survey was conducted to the 597 residents in 14 apartments complex which were applied with standard floor structure and approval floor structure. Most of respondents(71.1 %) answered that the performance of floor impact sound insulation, in case of standard floor structure, was improved compared to the apartments where they used to live. Comparing with the questionnaire survey result of existing research, the answered ratio of 'less annoyed' and 'less loud' is somewhat increased.

This study compared the floor impact sound level of rectangular receiving room type to differed receiving room types to analyze effect of room mode. The floor impact sound level of master room were higher than the level of living room which resulted from room mode. The result showed that the level of low frequency bandwidth in the location varied with receiving room types were lower than general measuring point of rectangular receiving room.

In this study, the extracted words from the former study such as annoying, loud, noisy, irritating, disagreeable, strident, disturbed, and dissonant are given to subjects in psycho acoustic experiment lab. And then, correlation analysis between the words and floor impact noise rating method were carried out. As a result of this study followings are suggested ‘Annoying’ is the word most accurately expressing the subjects’ unpleasant feeling of domestic floor impact noise. The results of this study could be basic materials for psycho acoustic experiments for criteria on floor impact noise and Sound Classification on Floor Impact Sound Insulation Performance.

The structure borne sound is one of the most important factor in building acoustics. Nevertheless, there is not yet sufficient knowledge to predict its behavior in preparing the acoustical design of a building. We are concerned with the concrete floating floor construction, which is one of the most promising ways to control floor impact sound. This study is to develop floating screeds isolated from the conventional concrete floor structures, to improve the concrete floor systems for the purpose of the good sound insulation performance which protects the propagation of the structure borne sound. Floor impact sound in many apartment house buildings and developed floating floors was measured, and we can save many floor impact sound data.

This study presents about the method of alternatives selection by considering wall performance and interior design. Wall is selected fur the object and 3 items of cost, performance, and design as the objective function for optimizing are determined. Thus the wall performance selected problems, which are improvement of insulation performance, sweaty prevention, sound insulation performance and design selected problems, which is satisfactory Improvement of users about Interior design. It is important to select alternatives that can satisfy the performance and design on the capital given as much as possible. But quantitative problem such as performance or expanses and qualitative problem such as design are not in the same dimension. Therefore this problem is a multi-criteria optimization problem and also has used AHP method as the method to solve these. Moreover GA is used to solve a problem of the alternatives occurrence, which is the characteristic of multi-criteria problem. This study presents the solution method on multi-criteria problem that has been mix loaded of quantitative problem and qualitative problem by using AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) and GA(Genetic Algorithm).

A dash panel component, close to passengers, plays a very important role to protect heat and noise from a power train. Meanwhile, it is also a main path that transfers vibration energy and eventually radiates acoustic noise into the cavity. Therefore, it seems important to provide an optimal design scheme incorporating sound packages such as dash isolation pad and carpet, as well as structures. The present study is the extension of the previous investigation how design variables affect sound radiation, which was carried out using the simple plate and framed system. The system taken into account in this paper is a dash panel component of a sedan, which includes A pillar, front side member, dash panel and the corresponding sound packages. Design variables such as panel thickness and sound package layers are investigated how they are related for the better radiation performance (i.e. structure-borne) and sound transmission loss (i.e. air borne).

This study investigated a sound reduction degree by each soundproofing materials and the sound pressure level of a main frequency range to develop soundproofing facilities installed for reducing sound in a tunnel blasting. The frequency range and sound pressure level of soundproofing materials(eg. sand and water etc.) mainly used at a working spot were measured using the experimental apparatus considered with blasting situation. The full scale pilot test was also carried out using developed soundproofing facilities in this study. And the performance of developed soundproofing facilities was analyzed. As a result, the developed soundproofing facilities using water in sound insulation materials could reduce about 10dB(A) of blasting noise in compare with the existing soundproofing facilities.

This study aims to propose fundamental data for development of noise reduction system that is applied to classification for light-weight impact sound. For this reason, eight types of damping materials were constructed in new construction field. Comparison and analysis among the reduction materials were carried out on the acoustical characteristics through test. In the end, the suitability as a damping material was evaluated by the analysis.

In this study, foreign and domestic noise criteria on walls, floors, and water supply facilities were reviewed and the results are as follows : regulation can be divided two things, one is on thickness the other is sound insulation performance. Green Building regulation based on the law and this have sound classification systems. Since these regulations are not established in Korea. The noise regulation on water supply-drain facilities and domestic guideline on interior noise level is needed. Foreign regulations are stricter than those of ours. And those has sound classification system for the better acoustic condition of inhabitants'.

In a high speed train, multi-layered panels for floor, side wall and roof are important sound insulating part. As these multi-layered panels require high bending strength vs. weight, corrugated steels or aluminium honeycomb panel are generally used. However, with some inevitable factors, these panels show lower sound insulation performance than that of the plate with the same weight. Transmission loss(TL) often severely decreases in a particular frequency range because of the decrease of the critical frequency, occurrence of local resonance modes and cavity resonance modes, which are not shown in a plate. In this study, frequency range and cause of the TL drop are investigated on the corrugated and honeycomb panels.
