Abstract

During the installation of recommended noise mitigation measures that appear on architectural drawings or that are presented in project acoustical reports, demolition, renovation, office building, institutional facilities, apartment buildings, and condominium construction trades may or may not omit and/or improperly install the recommended noise control systems. This paper presents several examples of such improper practices that, had they not been discovered, would have resulted in significant reductions in the planned noise control performance. These cases result in undesired living and/or working conditions. The selected examples of such construction problems are discussed and successful remedies are presented, some of which avoided threatened litigation.
