Acoustic Comfort Level in Contemporary Housing Apartments According to Urban Spaces in Tabriz City

Noise is unwanted noise. Excessive noise is known to be a nuisance in the living and working environment. This ambient noise must be controlled and reduced to an acceptable level because high levels of noise, in addition to being annoying and annoying, also cause countless harmful effects. The purpose is to investigate and analyze the acoustic comfort in contemporary housing apartments in terms of urban spaces in Tabriz. The research method has a quantitative nature that is done as a field survey in two levels of questionnaire tools (perceptual status assessment) as well as field surveys (acoustic status assessment). The researcher-made questionnaire has been used as a data collection tool in the first part, the validity of which was assessed by a survey of professors in the field of architecture and acoustics and its reliability has been evaluated using Cronbach's alpha (0.926). All experiments related to airborne noise absorption field (background noise absorption and sound pressure level) using the 2260 device made by B&K Denmark. Initially, background noise is measured in both open and closed window modes inside the residential units. After that, SPL acoustic pressure level diagrams were drawn and evaluated using the specific and standard sound levels in decibels in different plan spaces. In the final stage, the acoustic standard of noise level (NC) is examined. The results show that the effect of traffic among other variables in the field of acoustic comfort, on the level of dissatisfaction caused by noise in urban areas in the Tabriz, is not only undeniable but also important to the extent that even with measurements The SPL sound pressure level did not change the patterns created at the noise level.
