Influence of Perforated Ceiling on Floor Impact Sound Insulation in Reinforced Concrete Buildings

摘要

In this study, the influence of a perforated ceiling on the floor impact sound was investigated. The floor impact sound measurements were conducted both with and without suspended ceiling including the perforated and non-perforated panel, using heavy and light weight impact sources in a reinforced concrete test building. The results indicated that the perforated ceiling with and without absorption sheet greatly reduced the resonance of floor impact sound by the non-perforated ceiling. However, the perforated ceiling without an absorption sheet did not improve the single number quantity (SNQ, rubber ball: L-iA'(, Fmax,V,T) and tapping machine: L-n,L-w') for the floor impact sound insulation. The perforated ceiling with attached absorption sheet produced SNQs of 2 dB lower and higher than that produced by the non-perforated ceiling for heavy and light weight impact sources, respectively. It was also found that the improvement in the floor impact sound insulation after the installation of the perforated ceiling was related to the mass-spring-mass system, rather than the absorption area of the receiving room.
