Due to Swiss environmental legislation, the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) has to minimize the negative influences of vibration in buildings near railways. For every newly constructed or extended railway track, costly measurements and calculations have to be undertaken to assess future immissions of v

A BSTRA CT This paper deals with transmission of structure-borne sound in buildings in a special case: the sound is assumed to originate from railway traffic and to be transmitted through rock to a building which is built directly on rock'. It is shown that in such situations a major part of the tra
Noise from machinery in buildings is caused by a mixture of air-borne and structure-borne sound. Relations are given for the estimation of sound levels in rooms due to air-borne and structure-borne sound transmission. For air-borne noise well-known quantities can be used to describe the source stren
In this study, the vibration and acoustic resonance, and dominant frequency range of simple concrete box and viaduct are examined from the measurement results. A narrow band analysis\*fast Fourier transform (FFT) method is used to analyze the measurement results and "nite element method (FEM) is use
