This presentation will focus on three case studies of designs to limit transportation noise through the building shell to support the successful use of the building. The first project focuses on an office building located close to beautiful water views that desired a building shell made primarily of glass. However, it will be located directly under the flight path of a nearby US Airforce base. The second project considers a hotel conference center located directly adjacent to a heavy rail line. The third project address movie sound stages located adjacent to a major highway and directly under the flight path of Hartsfield Jackson International Airport, known as the busiest airport in the world. Site measurements were taken for each of these locations and a detailed review of the data used to determine which noise sources and frequencies of concern would be the focus of the design. The presentation will present examples of the collected data, the design strategies used, and discuss the challenges faced by the design team.
