Environmental noise is a problem affecting the quality of everyday life. It is the focus of many planning regulations which affect building envelope, mitigation design, construction costs and is the cause of numerous legal disputes and issues. Hence, it is important to measure environmental noise as accurately as possible and to assess the uncertainty associated with that measurement.
In this talk Dr Fenlon will examine and quantify some of the factors associated with uncertainty in environmental sound measurement for both road and rail traffic, and show how both experimental and statistical techniques allow different effects to be separated. Dr Fenlon will consider how sampling methods can lead to significant biases that add to the overall uncertainty. Much of this analysis is based on experimental work carried out by Noise.co.uk Ltd.
