Discussion

The effect of sound source inside a building can make the people live inside the building fill
uncomfortable. They also can get ears problem because some of the sound type are dangerous
like low frequency sound. Sound source are also produce the vibration with depend on frequency
of sound.
As with all buildings, before construction can start the designer has to decide which the best
materials to use are. In all buildings many different materials are used. Different properties make
materials suitable for different uses. The material choice must also consider the effect of noise.
To elevate or reduce this effect, the absorbent material can make noise reduce or not too noise.
Some of the material can absorb the sound and not reflect back.
In this experiment, building material properties like plywood, glass wood fiber and acrylic are
test and find what material that good for absorb the noise. We test with 4 situation, low
frequency and low speaker intensity, low frequency and high speaker intensity, high frequency
and low speaker intensity and high frequency and high speaker intensity. Plywood can reflect the
noise and also can absorb the noise. The glass wood fiber is the good noise absorber. The sound
of noise can though it. The acrylic is the good reflector sound, it have texture fiber. The good
transmission of sound is the glass wood fiber. From results, we can learn that materials with less
sound intensity level absorb more noise.
The graph shows that the plywood has different result with acrylic and seems similar with glass
wood fiber. The glass wood fiber graph must be uniform. Some precaution should take are not
making other noise at the experiment place and correctly setup sound reading.
We also can increase the ability of an experiment to measure an effect by Making repeated
measurements of one item, Increasing sample size, randomizing samples, randomizing
experiments, repeating experiments, and including covariates.



Conclusion
This experiment was done inform people about the effect of noise in building materials. It
will help people who are involved with building projects. Knowing which materials are the most
suitable for some type of room like lecture hall or cinema.
From this conclusion the five objective has been reach. we understand the effect of sound
source inside a building, the material should be selected to eluvate or reduce sound effect, the
propertis of the three type material used can be consider about three properties of material that
absorb noise, absorb and reflect noise and reflect fully noise, the transmission of sound though
the material and the sound intensity level.
