What Are the Different Types of Barrier Methods?

Sound barriers are mainly used for sound insulation and noise reduction of highways, highways, elevated composite roads and other noise sources. It is divided into reflection-type sound barriers with pure sound insulation, and composite sound barriers that combine sound absorption and sound insulation. Refers to the wall structure on the side of railways and highways to reduce the impact of traffic noise on nearby residents. Sound insulation walls are also called sound barriers. A facility is inserted between the sound source and the receiver, so that the sound wave propagation has a significant additional attenuation, thereby reducing the impact of noise in a certain area where the receiver is located. Such a facility is called a sound barrier. Divided into traffic noise barriers, equipment noise attenuation noise barriers, industrial plant boundary noise barriers, highways and highways are the most commonly used types of noise barriers ^[1] .

Outdoor sound barriers generally use brick or concrete structures.

Perlite is a fine-pored, inorganic cement composition. It does not contain pollutants. It is basically cement, natural minerals, and other chemical materials. After special treatment, it is stirred and molded to make it durable and highly malleable. It can be adjusted to different bulk density, shape, color and appearance to suit different installation and design conditions, which can meet the different needs of practical applications. Compared with other existing sound absorption and sound insulation materials, perlite materials have the following characteristics:

No organic ingredients, no pollution ingredients: for example, asbestos, mineral fibers,

The noise reduction of the sound barrier is related to the frequency of the noise, the height of the barrier, and the distance between the sound source and the receiving point. The noise reduction effect of the sound barrier has a great relationship with the frequency components of the noise. The high-frequency sound greater than 2000 Hz has a better noise reduction effect than the intermediate frequency sound of about 800-1000 Hz, but for low-frequency sound of about 25 Hz. Because the wavelength of the sound wave is relatively long, it is easy to diffract through the barrier, so the effect is poor. Generally, the sound barrier can reduce l0-15dB for high frequency sound. The height of the sound barrier can be designed according to the distance between the sound source and the receiving point. If the height of the barrier is doubled, the amount of noise reduction can increase by 6dB. Source or receive point.

1. Sound waves People call the mechanical waves that can cause hearing sound waves (audio). The frequency is between 20 and 20000 Hz.

2. Mechanical waves with infrasound frequencies below 20 Hz are called infrasound waves.

3. Mechanical waves whose ultrasonic frequency is higher than 20000Hz are called ultrasonic waves.

4. Waves in which the particles move in the direction of propagation in longitudinal wave media.

5. Particles in transverse wave media are waves that move perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

6. Surface waves are waves that propagate along the surface layer of the medium and whose amplitude decreases rapidly with depth.

7. Plane wave wave front is a wave whose plane is perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

8. Cylindrical wave fronts are coaxial cylindrical waves.

9. Spherical wave fronts are concentric spherical waves.

Sound barriers are mainly used along railways and highways,

Sound barriers are mainly used for sound insulation and noise reduction in transportation and municipal facilities such as expressways, elevated composite roads, urban light rail subways, etc.

The general principles for the selection of sound barrier materials are good noise reduction performance, safe and reliable structure, economical materials, low installation costs, durability, long service life, harmonious landscape, elegant appearance and so on. The details are as follows:

Prospects: With the rapid development of China's economy and the acceleration of urbanization, transportation methods such as expressways, railways, and urban rail transit have developed rapidly. These roads will inevitably pass through densely populated residential areas during construction. Traffic noise has caused some interference to the work, life and study of residents near the road. National environmental monitoring results show that about 17% of cities with road traffic noise are moderately polluted and 49% of cities are lightly polluted. Establishing sound barriers to solve traffic noise pollution has become the main way to control urban road noise. Magnesite sound barriers have developed rapidly due to their unique advantages and have been widely used in cities such as Beijing, Zhengzhou, Guangzhou and Chongqing.

1.Diffraction

The sound energy that is diffracted across the top of the sound barrier to the receiving point is lower than the direct sound energy when there is no barrier. The difference between the sound level of the direct sound and the diffraction sound is called the diffraction sound attenuation, and its value is represented by the symbol Ld, and it increases with the increase of the angle. The diffraction sound attenuation of the sound barrier is a function of the geometric relationship and frequency of the sound source, the receiving point and the sound barrier, and it determines the height of the sound barrier.

2. Transmission

The phenomenon that the sound wave from the sound source is transmitted to the receiving point through the sound barrier. The sound energy that penetrates the sound barrier depends on the areal density of the sound barrier, the angle of incidence, and the frequency of the sound wave. The ability of the sound barrier to isolate sound is evaluated by the sound transmission loss TL. The larger the TL, the smaller the transmitted acoustic energy; the smaller the TL, the larger the transmitted acoustic energy. The transmitted acoustic energy may reduce the insertion loss of the sound barrier. The reduction in the insertion loss due to transmission is called the transmitted sound correction amount. It is represented by the symbol Lt. Usually in the acoustic design, TL- Ld 10dB is required, and the transmitted sound energy can be ignored, that is, Lt0.

3.Reflection

When there are sound barriers on both sides of the road, and the sound barriers are parallel, the sound waves will be reflected between the sound barriers multiple times and diffracted across the top of the sound barrier to the sound receiving point. The amount of reduction in the insertion loss is called the reflected sound correction amount, and is represented by the symbol Lr.

In order to reduce the reflected sound, a sound-absorbing structure is generally added to the side of the sound barrier on the side of the road. The amount of reflected sound energy depends on the sound absorption coefficient of the sound absorption structure, which is a function of frequency. In order to evaluate the overall sound absorption effect of the sound barrier sound absorption structure, the noise reduction coefficient NRC is usually used. The main physical quantity of barrier insertion loss ^[1] .
