Abstract

In apartment houses, said to be similar to a typical housing form, every household share the walls and floors. Many problems inevitably accompany such as an arrangement, as noise and vibration are shared among households. When investigating the percentage of apartment resident's dissatisfaction with housing environments, discontent due to noise ranks the highest. Among many different kinds of noises, noise such as floor crashing sounds show the highest indication rate in the residents' comparison of discontent. Therefore, it is the practice of insulating against noises such as floor crashing sounds that improves the apartment house environments. The factors influencing the floor impact sound insulation include floor finishing materials, shock absorbing floors (slabs included), and ceiling structures. The ceilings of the apartment houses, currently built in Korea, are set up with lower parts of slabs and paper finishing, or with double floors for protecting against floor impact sounds in order to improve the sound insulating performance. The most common the method of ceiling structure construction consists of 'wood boarded frames +Gypsum boards + ceiling papers', which is called the wood boarded frame method. This study aimed to measures and evaluates floor impact sound insulation by which the ceiling space are widened according to suppression system is added in apartment house ceiling structure.
