CONSTRUCTION-SITE NOISE CONTROL COST-BENEFIT ESTIMATING PROCEDURES

This report aids the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers construction cost estimator in determining the level of noise generated at construction sites, in comparing this level with Corps of Engineers criteria, and in estimating costs to a contractor of reducing the noise. A companion report, Construction-Site Noise Control-Cost-Benefit Estimation Technical Background, Technical Report N-37 (U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (CERL), January 1978), contains the rationale and data supporting this report.
