Sound Insulation
Sound Insulation, more accurately, increasing the loss of sound transmission is part of noise control. Noise control means eliminating unnecessary noise, reducing noise at its source, trapping it at its source, preventing it from spreading, preventing it from entering into a maintenance, step by step monitoring of the route from the noise source to the ear and determining the measures to be taken accordingly.
1 - What is Sound Insulation?
unwanted and evoked uncomfort feeling sounds are called noise. Sound insulation; These are the applications made with the aim of protecting the environment from the harmful effects of noise by isolating the living environment from unwanted sounds, reducing the noise emitted from noisy areas and creating suitable usage conditions in places such as cinema and recording studio.
2 - Why should we be protected from noise?
Noise has many psychological and physiological damages on human beings. Noise is the most important cause of stress that causes diseases. These diseases can be summarized as follows: Irritability, difficulty in perception, decrease in work efficiency, insomnia, circulatory system disorders, abnormalities in various body secretions, permanent hearing loss, premature birth and miscarriage in pregnant women.
3 - What happens if we do not have sound insulation and are not protected from noise?
Noise causes many health problems. Even if human beings are accustomed to noise over time, their harm will continue to increase. Moreover, hearing loss due to noise is not treated with medication or surgical intervention. Permanent hearing loss (deafness) occurs especially in long-term exposure to high noise. In addition, the productivity of the employees in industrial facilities such as the factory decreases and occupational accidents occur as a result of their distraction.
4 - Where should sound insulation be made?
Sound insulation;
- In areas that need to be protected from the harmful effects of noise (houses, schools, hospitals, dormitories, hotels, work places, etc.)
- In areas where the noise they emit to the environment should be prevented (generator, booster, heater, entertainment places with high sound level, etc.)
- Usage conditions in sound dependent areas (cinema, theater, concert and conference hall, TV and sound recording studio etc.)
It should be done.
5 - How to make sound insulation?
Sound insulation should be considered when planning the structure. In addition, when determining the elements such as walls, floors, ceilings, glass and woodwork of the buildings, materials with high sound insulation properties (insulation plaster, insulation screed) should be used. By using sound insulation material, the passage of lower and upper floor sounds is prevented by passing through neighboring walls. The ideal sound insulation is realized with insulation plaster and insulation screed applications that cover every detail of the structure such as column - beam, floor - ceiling with its porous structure.
6 - What are the benefits of sound insulation for the country?
Noise constitutes an important problem as a dimension of environmental pollution in our age and causes many health problems whose cause cannot be determined at the first time. Sound insulation and noise control, healthy and peaceful individuals, a clean environment, attention and work efficiency by increasing the prevention of accidents is of great importance for both our country and our people.
7 - What is the volume, how it is expressed?
Sound intensity is the amount of sound energy that comes to the unit area per unit time. The magnitude is expressed in dB (decibels). The following are examples of sound level;
Sound Source and Location Sound Pressure Level dB (A)
Aircraft at take-off (within 25 m) 140dB (A)
Road excavation (at a distance of 7 m) 90dB (A)
Alarm clock bell (at a distance of 1 m) 80dB (A)
Inside the car traveling at 50 km / h 70dB (A)
Normal talk (at a distance of 1 m) 50dB (A)
Quiet bedrooms (should have) 35dB (A)
8 - What should we pay attention to to reduce the harmful effects of noise?
First of all, we should create soundproof environments and be careful not to be in the high noise level for a long time.
Noise Exposure Time (hrs / day) Maximum Noise Level dB (A)
7.5 80
4 90
2 95
1100
0.5 (30 Minutes) 105
0.25 (15 Minutes) 110
1/8 (7.5 minutes) 115
