Abstract
Today's modern cities represent the complex interconnection of many districts. It is not uncommon that some of them are both business and residential, which creates positive and negative mutual influences. Business operations nearby residential buildings can, in many cases, create a noise disturbance that affects the acoustical comforts of the residents. Usual types of noise sources in these situations are HVAC systems and generators that tend to produce an excessive amount of noise. To avoid complaints and lawsuits, business owners often seek advice from professionals in noise management to solve the problem. This paper addresses a case where a backup diesel generator creates noise disturbance affecting the business-residential building, and provides a possible solution to the problem.
