✦ Synopsis


A BSTRA CT Noise and vibration measurements have been made in the rapid rail transit system (metro) in Calcutta. The track is 16"43 km long, is ballastless and has been laid for most of the journey in a specially-designed underground concrete tube of box structure. The results of measurement show that both noise and vibration levels are higher than the recommended values for reasonable comfort. The factors responsible for excessive noise have been analysed and methods to bring noise and vibration levels within comfortable limits have been suggested.
