Abstract | ||||
This paper focuses on the study of internal noise sources in residential buildings and their control measures without resorting to highly complex or expensive methods. Sound levels from most significant noise sources inside dwellings were measured at different frequencies. The effect of furniture elements such as curtains or carpets on noise levels was also measured. The paper then concluded to several solutions to minimize the sound level of these sources and to contain their effect on residents taking in account the technical, economical and architectural capabilities of Egyptian cities | ||||
