Estimating Noise Exposure for Site Section and Exterior Wall Design

Accurate knowledge of the ambient noise levels exterior to a theater, concert hall, or studio is required for site location and wall design. Measured noise levels over a long enough time to be statistically significant are too costly if a number of sites are being considered. Methods of estimating the noise exposure with sufficient accuracy for preliminary evaluation will be presented.
