Airport related residential accoustical insulation demonstration project: Report 1720
Abstract
A demonstration project to evaluate the feasibility of retrofit acoustical insulation in single family residences as a possible remedial measure for homes impacted by airport and aircraft noise is described. Six private residences generally located in an area to the east and southeast of Lambert St. Louis International Airport were used. The program involved making before and after noise measurements, selecting contractors, and overseeing the installation of selected acoustical controls, and evaluating the effectiveness of the program. A description of each individual house and measured data pertaining to the house is presented.
