Features: This book is a practical reference for architects engaged in architectural air sound insulation design. It is rich in content and detailed in data, serving as both a design manual and a reference tool. Additionally, its clear and accessible theoretical explanations also inspire architects to enhance their design imagination and creativity. Furthermore, the book provides guidance for architects and acoustic engineers collaborating on special sound insulation projects. The sound insulation content covered in this book pertains solely to the air sound insulation of building enclosures. The book is divided into 16 chapters, starting with the fundamental theory of the mass law governing air sound insulation, and comprehensively and thoroughly elaborates on the design knowledge, principles, and technical methods for sound insulation of single-layer, double-layer, multi-layer, lightweight enclosure components, as well as doors and windows. The book also introduces various methods for evaluating the sound insulation performance of components, aiming to broaden architects' perspectives. In the key chapter—Chapter 5, "Calculation Formulas for Sound Insulation of Single-Layer Components"—the author elaborates on and compiles numerous sound insulation calculation formulas provided by acoustic researchers both domestically and internationally. Through analysis and research, the author proposes their own calculation formulas and suggests how architects can accurately measure sound insulation data and construct detailed sound insulation drawings.
[Target Audience] The primary audience for this book is architects. It also holds significant reference value for faculty and students of architectural and related disciplines at colleges and universities, as well as for a broad range of construction engineering technical personnel.
