Abstract
Ground‐borne noise produced by railroads, subways, and roadways can be radiated as airborne noise in enclosed reverberant spaces. A simple model utilizing site vibration measurements to estimate resultant sound‐pressure levels is presented. The model is then extended to devise a broad class vibration criteria that can be used to assess the severity of existing ground‐borne noise. To demonstrate this model, sound and vibration measurements were simultaneously measured in a basement space located near a subway line. Predicted sound levels derived from the measured vibration are compared with measured sound levels.
