Book Description

Publication Date: January 1998 | ISBN-10: 0894649221 | ISBN-13: 978-0894649226 | Edition: Original

This handbook covers the important acoustical considerations in the design of buildings of all types. It describes what to do and what not to do in many situations and includes precautions against particular problems that may arise. Useful data is given on the acoustical performance of most common building materials and on design considerations for many specific types of buildings and spaces. Included are chapters on noise and vibration control of mechanical systems, design considerations for electroacoustic systems, community noise control, and industrial noise control. Here is a practical, hands-on design tool, embodying the combined knowledge and experience of two acoustical consultants, each practicing for more than 30 years.
