Programme Highlights
Noise from normal day-to-day activities within
residential unit, such as noise from television, children playing or running,
furniture moving, things dropping on the floor etc., is inevitable part of
everyday life. These occasional noises, if loud enough, will transmit from one
unit to another, causing nuisance to neighboring residents in upper or adjacent
units.
The Environmental Protection Department commissioned
a study to find out overseas experiences and technical solution to reduce sound
transmission between units. This webinar
will share with you about the study’s outcomes, the technical information in
designing and applying sound insulation in residential buildings, a recent
application in a new residential development in Hong Kong and an associated draft
practice note under preparation.
