Abstract: |
Building partition structures must meet several construction and technical parameters. During the measurement of the acoustic properties of dividing structures in real conditions, surprising results are often achieved that do not correspond to the expected values. Based on this reason, the composition of nine dividing constructions were designed. The measurements were carried out under conditions that are very close to real conditions. Measurements were performed in accordance with international standards. The monitored parameters also include acoustic parameters. In this paper, the analysis of acoustic parameters of nine building dividing structures (profiles) with different compositions was performed. The individual layers were made up of common building elements. Various statistical methods, variance analysis and regression were used in the evaluation. The apparent sound reduction index values measured for different profile types for frequencies from 100 to 3150 Hz are compared using Variance Analysis (ANOVA); the assumptions for their use are verified by the Shapiro–Wilk test and Levene Test of Homogeneity of Variances. Multiple linear regression was used to identify and analyze the relationship between the independent variables and the dependent variable. The methods of regression and correlation analysis were used in determining the parameters that affect the resulting coefficient of weighted structural sound insulation. The total thickness of the profile and the number of layers were found to be statistically significant parameters. Based on these analyses, the coefficient of weighted structural sound insulation was determined. A clear-cut definition and identification of the single-number rating required would thus be instrumental in selecting the appropriate material for accomplishing the desired objectives. |
