DETERMINATION OF NOISE EMISSION ON INNER-CITY STREETS

BEURTEILUNG DER LAERMIMMISSIONEN AN INNERSTAEDTISCHEN STRASSEN

Diagrams are reproduced for determining the mean sound level of traffic noise of inner city traffic. The traffic noise levels were measured by means of precision sound level recorders and tape recorders. The diagrams were reproduced by graphical noise level indicators and noise frequency counters. For the evaluation it is necessary to divide the hourly traffic flow into private motor cars and truck traffic. With higher traffic flows, a short traffic measurement period (30 minutes) is generally adequate to determine mean daily values approximately. For low traffic flows and for night-time values, several short period measurements at various times were necessary. The diagrams are usable only for inner city streets and possibly for enclosed or compact towns. /TRRL/
