This study introduces abnormal noise phenomenon of steel deck plate bridge which have not been mentioned in the literature or reports. The abnormal noise occurred from the time when the girder was installed and the welding was completed. And it had continued after the bridge opened. In this study, firstly, the characteristics of abnormal noise is analyzed. Also it presents the mechanism of noise generation.

In this study, to targeting Songpa of Seoul, were analyzed the effect on the noise mitigation in roadside buffer green spaces. Noise of Songpa Street buffer green space was determined to be higher during the day than at night. In addition, it was most of 60 db or more. However, the noise reduction function of the buffer green was not greatly affected by time. In the case of noise reduction rate, during the day time it was the order of the mounding type (18.14%)> plain type (5.73%)> slope type (4.08%), And, in the case of night time, it was the order of the mounding type (11.29%)> slope type (10.22%)> plain type (4.42%). Noise reduction rate, all of the daytime, was the highest in the mounding type. As a result of the factors on the amount of reduction of noise, More physical structure is mounding type, green structure is the stratification of green space, and the number of individuals is large, the higher the tree planting density, it is determined that the noise reduction effect is high. Also, factors affecting the noise reduction effect of the day and night were different.

도로 교통에서 발생하는 소음은 타이어와 포장 사이의 마찰, 엔진, 에어펌핑 음 등이 주원인이다. 저소음 도로포장 공법은 타이어와 도로표면에서 발생하는 소음원을 저감시키는 기술로 교통소음으로 인한 민원, 불편 등을 효과적으로 해소할 수 있는 포장 공법이다. 본 연구에서는 복층 저소음 아스팔트 포장 기술에 대한 성능 및 경제성 분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 아스팔트 포장 공법은 상부층을 작은 골재로 포장을 하여 타이어와 도로 표면사이의 마찰을 감소시켰으며, 하부층에는 굵은 골재를 두어 에어 펌핑 음으로 인한 공명음의 발생을 감소시켰다. 저소음 포장이 완료된 도로는 일반 아스팔트 콘크리트 포장에 비해 약 9dB의 소음이 저감되는 효과를 보였으며 시간이 경과된 후에도 소음 저감 효과가 지속되는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 경제성 분석은 방음 벽, 방음 터널의 설치비용을 고려하여 동일 구간 설치시 발생하는 비용을 비교하였다.

도로의 발달과 교통량의 증가에 따라 도로교통소음은 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며 도로변 소음피해에 대한 민원 또한 매년 급격히 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 이러한 도로교통소음을 저감시키기 위해 저소음 포장과 방음벽, 방음터널과 같은 방음시설 등이 적용되고 있으며 이와 같은 소음 저감방안의 소음 저감효과를 평가하기 위하여 다양한 방법으로 소음 측정이 시행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현장 여건을 고려한 소음 측정방법에 따른 소음 측정결과를 비교분석하기 위해 소음 측정기를 지면에 고정시키고 소음을 측정하는 고정식 측정방법(CPB(Controlled Pass-by Method))과 소음 측정기를 차량에 부착하고 주행하면서 소음을 측정하는 이동식 측정방법(CPX(Close Proximity Method))을 실시하였다. 측정 결과 고정식 측정방법의 경우 측정장소의 현장여건에 따라 소음 측정기의 설치 높이와 거리를 동일하게 유지한다면 소음 저감효과 비교 분석에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났으나 주변소음에는 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 이동식 측정방법의 경우 마이크로폰의 설치 위치에 따라 측정결과에 영향을 미치므로 마이크로폰 위치 설정이 매우 중요하다.

In this research, we measured the number of lanes, distance, disposition of apartment that are affecting the road traffic noise to evaluate the current condition of G city’s road traffic noise. We decide on a basis regarding an apartment price formation factor, and the apartment current price and the results that compared. To have a point scale, we set the maximum road traffic noise at a 8 lane road for 5 points, give 4 points for a 6 lane road, which has a 2.1～2.5 dB(A) difference compared to a 8 lane road, give 3 points for a 4 lane road, which has a 5.2～5.5 dB(A) difference compared to a 8 lane road, and set 2 points for a 2 lane road and lower. If we set the standard floor plan as horizontal and a living room facing the roadside, the horizontal and living room facing the opposite side of the road is 1 point because it differs by 14.1 dB(A), and the vertical is 3 points since the difference is 5.3 dB(A). If we make grades by the distance, making standard the fifth floor with little soundproof effect from apartment to road, we observe a measurement below 2.9 dB(A) at a distance of less than 10 m and 5 dB(A), decreased at a distance of 20 m. Therefore, 4 points were given for less than 10m, 3 points for 10～20 m, 2 points for more than 20 m as we can apply the effect of a decay distance of line sound source and the decrease in noise effects of more than 6 dB(A), 1 point for more than 40m, and 0 points for more that 80 m since it is negligible. 28 apartments got 0 points because there is no effect of road traffic noise from other apartments, and 50 apartments where only the road at one side effect them got 5～10 points. 4 apartments (17-2, 6-3, 10-4, 3-3) received over 20 points. 15 cases showed a difference between developer price and resale price, and 11 cases (73%) among them showed the same trend (price increases with a low road traffic noise restriction factor point) with the point of road traffic noise restriction factor. 4 cases demonstrated the opposite trend, showing price increases with a high restriction factor point. Among the 4 cases, case numbers 2,6 and 9 appear to be more affected by the location factor (business district) than the road traffic noise restriction factor, and case number 1 appears to be affected by the building factor (openness and direction).

This research helps you understand the road traffic noise levels by using a noise map. We have observed the change of the road traffic noise levels around 07:00～08:30 and 22:00～23:00 using the noise map in the city. The road traffic noise level is very high both at noon and at night around a beltway and an interchange that is linked with a highway. It seems that the main route of so many vehicles, which are at neighboring cities such as N city and D and H districts and which avoid traffic jams in the city, is the beltway and interchange. The road traffic noise level of a nearby express bus terminal, railroad station, and airport is more than 75 dB at noon and 65 dB at night. The road traffic noise level of G city at night is observed to be more than 55 dB. The noise levels of a residence area and a university are higher than a road with high noise levels when the commuters drive to work. The end of the day exceeds 11 o'clock because of a culture level of development that arouses spare time, eating out, adults' drinking culture, nightlife of the youth, etc. Therefore, the road traffic noise level is high during late night hours, and it exceeds regulatory guidelines (55 dB(A)). It also damages the residence area that is located near the road.

This paper represents the statistical characteristics of sources and receptors for road traffic noise in apartment complex. Also we suggested that the site-specific characteristics of vertical and horizontal distributions in the complex apartment have been derived using a different analysis for evaluating levels of Leq1h by the apartment floor at a given distance from a road in terms of the flow rate, the mean speed of the traffic, and the percentage of the type vehicles in the day and night periods. As a result, the contribution orders of traffic quantity by the type of vehicles showed as followed: light vehicle>medium vehicle>heavy vehicle>motorcycle. Especially, the mixing ratio of entering the road on the heavy vehicle in the daytime was two times higher than that of in the night. The speed in all types of vehicle is in the range of 41 and 81 km/hr and noise level was not significantly different in day and night-time. The sources of road traffic noise had different variations and uncertainties using a random variable and probability distribution. The sound distribution to receptors by the apartment floor showed S curve between 1st floor and 15th floor With the normality test, the normal distributions using Anderson-Darling Test followed 1st, 3th, 13th and 15th floor in the daytime and all floors except 7th floor in the night (p>0.05). And also, the value of the pearson correlation coefficient (r) obtained in this study have significantly different at the range of floor. In conclusion, the results suggested that the distribution characteristics of levels of Leq1h on the sources and receptors of road traffic noise in apartment complex must be improved and developed on the guideline of regulation of road traffic noise.

Traffic noise is a kind of noise caused by cars, trains and aircraft. Among them, noise produced by cars is the most important factor in cities. According to the National Institute of Environmental Research(NIER)'s survey, Road traffic noise levels in Busan are the highest of all the cities in Korea. So, appropriate measures for road traffic noise reduction is required. For this purpose, the construction of a noise map in Busan will play a vital role. However, road traffic noise formulas are constructed considering regional characteristics such as each country road's environment and vehicle quality. Therefore, prior to constructing a noise map in Busan, examination processes about each formula constituent status and estimation process are required preferentially. In this research, the basic first stage is to estimate Busan's road traffic noise. First, investigate characteristics of each road traffic noise estimate and using this, a noise map is constructed for road traffic noise in Busan. Then the adaptation of a road traffic noise formula is evaluated.

When houses or buildings are adjacent to roads, with no effective prevention of road traffic noise, neighbors are exposed to it. It is important to understand the properties of sound propagation before taking a counter- measure against road traffic noise. It is easy to estimate the properties of sound propagation without obstacles, but very difficult and complex to estimate them with ones. The purpose of this study is to present a useful tool that can estimate the properties of sound propagation. In the beginning of this study, we investigated the attenuation of road traffic noise with two pillar buildings, and presented practical approximate calculation method, and verified that through scale model. The outcomes from this study are as follows : ⑴ Over second reflection sound waves can be ignored. ⑵ Diffraction sound waves that happen when reflection sound and first diffraction wave are projected at the wedge of other building can be ignored.
