Ways To Reduce Noise In Buildings Florida

By Shawn Hunter


Most of the current economic activities contribute to increase in the levels of noise. There have been increases in traffic on railways and roads, in working of the machines and in the airstrips. When such noise exceeds the normal levels, they bring about many problems to the listeners. The effects may even lead to deafness.to avoid this, start reduce noise in buildings Florida to bearable levels.

Noise is classified into two levels. These are the impact disturbance and the airborne disturbance. Airborne noise is usually transmitted by air. A large impact of structures results in a large impact noise. Both disturbance types affect the human beings. This effect is even worse to those living adjacent to these buildings.

Noise is dangerous to people of Jacksonville city. It has many effects on their health. These effects are more when the sound is very loud. Such noise will result in a loss of efficiency, fatigue, irritation, tiredness and even permanent losses in abilities to hear. The results from experiments performed have shown that if the sound levels go beyond 90dB, there is some reduction in the efficiency of workers. Levels going beyond 150db will result in instant rupture of the eardrums.

Individuals having plans of establishing their homes should consider settling in areas that are far from louder noises. It should be the same case for the hospitals, auditoriums, residential, schools and the auditoriums. They should know the areas where they will position the doors and the windows. It is not good to locate them in areas places where direct sounds will get in.

Machines that make a lot of noises should come fitted with cock or rubber beds. If possible, they should be placed in places that are sound proof. At least there is insulation from the disturbance. When materials like the rubber, cork and glass wool are fixed between the sources of sound and residential, there will be reduced risks of harmful disturbance and the vibrations.

How the sound behaves is very important to those who construct buildings. Once a sound is produced, it spreads to all directions using different mediums. It continues to strike the walls, ceilings and floors. Some of it becomes absorbed while the rest is reflected back to the source. Such reflections result in echo, acoustical defects and reverberation, such reflected sound must be controlled to ensure that there will be no disturbance created.

There are some factors that people involved in construction and making designs of buildings should take into consideration. The auditoriums, lecture theaters, broadcasting studios and cinemas should be designed differently. The sound produced is supposed to be of an adequate intensity. It must be heard in all corners of a hall. In lecture halls, it should be distinct and clear to prevent distortion.

In music halls and dance houses of Jacksonville city, the sound should spread with same intensity to all areas in the rooms. The outer parts of the hall should have minimal movements and activities. People will enjoy music when there is no disturbance. People outside should not be disturbed.
