Parametric Sensitivity Analysis of Factors Affecting Sound Transmission Loss of Multi-Layered Building Elements Using Taguchi Method

Abstract: The paper presents application of Taguchi method in optimizing the sound transmission loss through sandwich gypsum constructions and those comprising of masonry concrete blocks and gypsum boards in order to investigate the relative influence of the various parameters affecting the sound transmission loss. The application of Taguchi method for optimizing sound transmission loss has been rarely reported. The present work uses the results analytically predicted on "Insul" software for various sandwich material co… Show more

“…As another aspect, Garg et al. [371] used Taguchi technique to optimize the STL of a gypsum structure. Chronopoulos [372] focused on the optimal mechanical specifications of the layered composite structures under acoustic excitations considering the FE technique.…”

“…Thus, in the Indian context, clear-cut guidelines for sound regulation requirements like those in European member states shall not only provide a harmonization of sound descriptors with those followed in other countries, but shall also be helpful in reducing the R&D costs for the building industry in India for development of suitable products or systems with desired noise level reductions 25 . The technological advancement in building sciences adapting for light-weight, dry-wall construction materials with high strength and rigidity and improved sound insulation characteristics has to be thus brought in persistent use in Indian dwellings, rather than relying on massive constructions [26][27][28] . It is envisaged that stricter building codes with respect to sound insulation requirements of building elements shall be implemented and strictly enforced in National Building Codes of India for new residential projects and 'smart cities' developed in the future to provide acoustic comfort to residents from the outside noise.…”
