In framed structures, rooms and corridors are formed by placing partitions between structural columns. This practice produces connections between plates which have a column running along the joint. If sound transmission at these joints is to be studied, then the effects of the joint column must be c

โฆ Synopsis
In framed buildings joints between columns and floor structures commonly occur. Beams at the top of columns, which support the floors, increases the complexity of the joint and can greatly influence the transmission characteristics. Impedances for composite beam/plate structures are used together with wave theories to obtain predictions for vibration transmission at such joints. Predictions of sound transmission at such joints are computed within a statistical energy analysis framework and good agreement is found between measured and predicted results.

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
There is increasing evidence that moments are signiยฎcant contributors in machine induced structure-borne sound. Omission of these components in prediction can therefore lead to an underestimate of total power in some cases, although it is recognised that considering all transmission paths in predict
