Building Physics 2
Academic Year 2023/24
BHA045 course is part of 1 study plan
BPC-APS Summer Semester 3rd year
In order to ensure protection against noise in buildings need to be addressed insulation both vertical and horizontal separation structures and cladding. The room acoustic enclosure is rated in terms of reverberation time, the urban acoustic attenuation rate in the outdoors. In addition to acoustic performance must be in the interior of the building and ensure visual comfort, ie. there must be adequate interior lighting with daylight and the insolation.

Objective
Design of dividing building constructions from the viewpoint of requirement on air-borne and impact sound insulation, rate of closed area from the viewpoint of requirement on the reverberation time, rate of the noise on workplaces, in protected inner and outdoor space of buildings, attenuation of a noise in outdoor acoustics, design of aperture panes with respect to reservation requisite lighting of interior with daylight, requisite insolation in living buildings.
Knowledge
By attending the course the students will gain basic knowledge of boundary and divisionary structures of building with respect to sound-reduction and daylighting. They will learn how to acquire the reverberation time of closed spaces (ie. rooms), how to evaluate the noise levels of parking spaces in the protected outdoor and indoor locations of buildings, as well as how to efficiently place and design the openings for with respect to daylighting design of the interiors of buildings and how to meet the demands for the insolation of residential buildings.
Syllabus
1.-2. Daylighting and assessment of the daylighting factor
3.-4. Daylighting of building-direct solar radiation
5-6 Physical fundamentals of acoustics, levels and calculations with levels. Propagation of sound in free space - sound field.
7-8 Noise and its assessment. Noise attenuation in the outdoor area. Defects and malfunctions in terms of stationary noise sources.
9-10 Room acoustics, sound absorption, room reverberation time.
11.-12. Sound reduction of building structures. Assessment of air-borne sound insulation. Assessment of impact sound insulation. Methods of determining the sound reduction of building structures.
13. Defects and malfunctions of buildings in terms of sound reduction properties - air-borne and impact sound reduction. Critical places in the newly designed building.
