Driven by the continued global increase in traffic and the degree of urbanization, noise problems in and around buildings are becoming increasingly prevalent. Protecting people from noise by ensuring sufficient sound insulation is therefore important. The overarching goal of this course is to introduce building physics concepts regarding sound transmission and sound radiation, such that the airborne and impact sound insulation in a building can be analyzed, predicted, and improved. Students will acquire knowledge and develop skills through lectures, tutorials, and an assignment in which they will analyze the acoustic performance of a building (part).
