Evaluation of Reduction Performance of Floor Impact Sound on Floor Covering in the Reverberation Chamber

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to reduce floor impact sound in apartment houses, 30 types of floor coverings were chosen to evaluate a performance of reduction in impact sound in the reverberation chamber. In the test of performance of reduction in impact sound using bang machine, a performance of impact sound reduction can be ensured at a low frequency band of 63 Hz and 100 Hz. However, impact sound was amplified at a band of 80 Hz and 125 Hz except for some floor coverings. In the test of performance of reduction in impact sound using a rubber ball drop at a height of 100 cm, a performance of reduction in impact sound was improved from a band of 50 Hz up to 400 Hz. In the test of rubber ball drop at a height of 40 cm, which was similar to the impact of children's running, a performance of reduction in impact sound was improved from a band of 80 Hz and 160 Hz up to 400 Hz.
