What is glass and acoustic insulation?
-
No matter where it originates, from railways, aircraft, or factories, noise is all around. Future trend research suggests that traffic and noise, in general, will only get worse. The careful and considered selection of glass can be crucial in helping to reduce noise levels and meet noise requirements. In a fast urbanizing society, the sound is one of the most significant causes of stress and fatigue. The irony here is that sound is a silent killer and most people do not know its significance. Many new buildings are using glass extensively, and many without any consideration for how well a glass façade will block sound.
In the urban environment, sound is one of the most significant pollutants. While using glass extensively in building facades, one needs to consider how well a glass façade will block sound.
A glass of each thickness will have the same level of acoustic insulation. Hence thickness of the glass to be used for a building face should be decided based on the noise pollution level in the surrounding. The acoustic insulation properties of facades can be improved by combining different types of glasses.
