IMPLEMENTATION OF NOISE DATA INTO BUILDING INFORMATION MODEL FOR TRANSPORT AND UNDUSTRIAL NOISE REDUCTION

Abstract

Noise mapping is the best way to present information on the acoustic pollution. To design noise protection measures, authors use modern software package SoundPLAN, which is based on the up-to-date normative documentation and scientific researches. The program allows importing the results of calculations to Autodesk tools. Improving the efficiency of the noise protection design process is executed through the implementation of building information modeling (BIM). Data exchange between SoundPLAN, AutoCAD 3D or Revit and Navisworks is used in the development of building information model. In the article we present a new approach to noise reduction through implementation of noise data into the overall information model of the infrastructure or building project. BIM helps to track the collision of calculated noise levels with residential buildings, protected premises and work places. It lays a basis for the sound proof allocation of work places and development of protection measures. BIM also serves as a support tool for the design process of sound protection barriers, since it helps to avoid interconnection of noise barriers basement with engineering networks or paste a barrier in the proper place to provide its efficiency.
