SCALE MODEL INVESTIGATION OF TRAFFIC NOISE PROPAGATION
A TECHNIQUE HAS BEEN DEVELOPED FOR INVESTIGATING THE PROPAGATION OF NOISE FROM TRAFFIC ON MAJOR ROADS AND MOTORWAYS USING A 30:1 SCALE MODEL. VALIDATION STUDIES HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT FOR TEN DIFFERENT ROAD/HOUSING CONFIGURATIONS BY COMPARING MODEL RESULTS WITH FIELD DATA OBTAINED SPECIFICALLY FOR THE PURPOSE. THIS MODEL HAS BEEN USED TO OBTAIN SYSTEMATIC PREDICTION DATA FOR ROADS IN RETAINED AND IN NATURAL CUT. /AUTHOR/
